Thanks! Luck will just be getting on the road. This is my 3rd deployment and I haven't even left home yet. I'm either that good . . . or my reputation precedes me. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon/biggrin.gif)

Re: A Florida Woman...
Or drunk.Fla. election official sued over potential ‘cataclysmic’ medical-marijuana ballot error
A marijuana decriminalization group sued Broward County’s election supervisor Thursday for a potentially “catastrophic and cataclysmic” error that could endanger Florida’s highly popular medical-marijuana initiative at the ballot box.
In one instance so far, a voter provided proof that the proposed Florida Constitutional Amendment 2 was nowhere to be found on her vote-by-mail absentee ballot, according to the South Florida Sun Sentinel.
Broward Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes — whose office has been criticized for two other printing snafus recently — acknowledged there might have been a “mistake,” but she told the newspaper that she doesn’t know how widespread the problem is and that she could find no evidence it happened with other voters....
Broward — Florida’s second-most populous county —supported medical marijuana the most in 2014, when voters passed it by a margin of almost 159,000 votes. Though the measure received 57.6 percent support statewide at the time, it failed because state constitutional amendments need to pass with 60 percent of the vote in Florida.
Recent polls have shown the medical marijuana amendment garnering 70 percent or more support this year.
“Every voter and vote, therefore, is critical,” Norman Kent, an attorney for Florida’s chapter of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), wrote in his emergency petition to the local circuit court filed Thursday.
“The end result of this error is catastrophic and cataclysmic as it applies to this ballot item, effectively disenfranchising voters and eliminating the right to vote on certain matters which have been lawfully placed on the ballot,” Kent wrote....
“You can’t make this stuff up. It’s Florida,” Kent said. “My first reaction was: Were they high when they printed these ballots? This is ridiculous.” ...

Vrede used the term best thing since sliced bread. I grew up hearing that saying and hearing now we are cooking with gas. Both make sense relating to a modernizing world of new and improved.
Since I've been in florida, I keep hearing - now we are cooking with grease. This makes no sense outside of being idiotic. Cave men cooked with grease.

Re: A Florida Phrase...
I don't think heard it before, but the sole entry in the user-generated Urban Dictionary says:
![Razz :P](./images/smilies/icon/razz.gif)
If accurate, it sounds like it's referring to the speed and efficiency of frying, not historical advancement like "greatest thing since sliced bread". That's not to say that the folks in NW FL, let alone in LA, aren't idiotic cave people for other reasons.cooking with grease
factually stating something, especially when relating to past experiences, in a non-offensive way in order to try to slightly sway someone's opinion.
"Now, we are cooking with grease." (as in, "Now, we are getting somewhere!")

Never heard anybody use the term "cooking with grease." I've heard things like, "now we're cooking," meaning things are underway or going well. But of course common expressions don't have to make literal sense. If they did, nobody would say "by and large."

Re: A Florida Man...
Once had a 50-ish patient, not a Floridian, that had put a balloon up his penis. It broke. Sent him off to surgery. Later, the recovery room nurse dropped off the surgery keys as she always did at night, but much later than usual. Before she made it out the door I realized why and said, "Interesting case, wasn't it?"
She turned and exclaimed, "It was yellow, I won the bet!" and strutted triumphantly out the door.

Keeping things fair - we also have florida asshole woman stories
A Florida woman who believes the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting was a hoax was arrested Monday on charges she threatened the parent of a child killed in the 2012 school shooting.

Re: A Florida Man...
It's worth noting that most of these Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting "truthers" are idiot gunhuggers that think it's all part of some massive conspiracy to take away their pathetic compensations.

Re: A Florida Man...
Collins wasn't so tough standing before her superiors, was she?
"Good. More of this, please. It’s too bad former Florida District Attorney Angela Corey wan’t publicly
reprimanded for her treatment of single mother and domestic violence victim Marissa Alexander, who fired a shot into the air to keep her serial abuser husband from attacking her and was sentenced to 20 years in prison. Florida has a long way to go. This is hopefully the start of new direction. No victim of domestic violence should ever be treated so cruel and disrespectfully. Ever."
