Florida Roll call

[nicodemus]

I don't know where you are moving from, so I don't know what you would compare Orlando to. For me it's a huge place, very spread out. The local bus service only runs once an hour (Milwaukee and Chicago spoiled me).

I'm moving from Birmingham, a city I adore. While we don't have great public transportation, it is certainly way better than once an hour at a stop!

One thing I know I will miss is the hills and valleys. Orlando is so flat!

Many neighborhoods have only one road that leads to a main street. An inconvenient arrangement I think, but I guess it enhances neighborliness.

That does sound a bit inconvenient. Amazing how the moderns often don't plan as well as the ancients. I'm hoping to move somewhere I can walk to some stores, restaurants, etc. I love not having to use my car, but from the sounds of it, it sounds like everything requires a car down there.

I was in Orlando just two weeks ago and I thought that I had driven out of the USofA.

How do you mean?

International Drive and alot of tourist that were from other countries, not that that is a bad thing. I was just kidding btw. In the northern part of the state where I live we are still a little backwards. Haha.

Totally agree. I go up their once a year and tourist haven up their, but it sure beats living down here. Then again, I got to count my blessings .

Born and raised a floridian. I'm in Gainesville now for college, but home used to be in St. Petersburg (Madeira Beach). I'm used to traffic that consist of 60% tourists who have no idea where they are going and 40% locals that have a bad case of road rage because of the aforesaid tourists.

Sounds like Jacksonville. Except you have 70% of the drivers lacking all forms of intelligence and the remaining 30% are simply trying to avoid the aforesaid muttonheads.

We live in the greatest mission field in the world... Miami, FL and only a few minutes from all the sex, nudity, club dancing, cocain and idolatry a man or woman would ever want! Hey, AAA of America just released its newest findings about our beloved Sin City: #1 city in the World for casual sex and #1 city in America for homosexual sex!

Imagine if Christians were to come to south Florida to evanglize instead of feeding this wicked city's apetite for carnality and perversion with their vacation money! Here is an idea... boycott south Florida unless our Lord tells you to come to preach the Gospel to the wicked!

Until then, do the rest of we missionary workers a favor and stop feeding the beast!

Only in America....

Like Mimi I am planning on making it down there later this year, I feel the Lord is calling me to something in Florida. Perhaps to spread the Word to those living in Sin City??!!

You mean South Beach. I heard from a class mate at BCC, that you have to be 21 or older to go their. Hmm, I wonder why .

 

[blackpurseninja]

ha ha, miami is pretty bad. but it is true that everything there is 21 and up. unless of course, you are a beautiful female model

 

[Mimi]

Ha, so that is the place to be in Miami......

 

[LionOfJudah]

dont know what you are all talking about maimi is not any worse than any other large city, like tampa or orlando.


i do go to south beach alot though to stay at the hotels down there for work , i am not partial to them or anything i just enjoy the hotels, really comfortable, and really nice views of the beach.

Keep in mind IF you think miami is bad try going to London or Europe and see their club scene

Sure, there are bigger party places, but no city in FLorida compares to the nightlife of Miami.
