Well, there seems to be alot of members on here that, as it turns out, are from a galaxy far far away. They have been studying earth reefing nerds apparently.
 
That's fine Kevin. Amanda and I will go to the Bahamas where we will form a hippie psychedelic reggae band. Dangit, she probably won't go now. :(
Hey I'm game as long as I can still wear deodorant and everyone in the band does as well...

They could sell me a hospitality badge and use the proceeds to fix it. I guess I'm not very hospitable. Sigh..I'm going to get kicked out of the South :(

I think this is a very fair compromise. I just wanna eat conch and not pay taxes!

Does that include the...uhmmm...*cough*... "probe"?

A rodent version of Rocky Mountain Oysters? We stopped at a Buc-ee’s on our way to and from Nashville last fall. It was like Disney World. I got a barbecue brisket sandwich and three different types of beef jerky that you bought by the pound.
 
It is pretty cool in there. They have all sorts of stuff inside. You could wander around in there for an hour easily just looking at stuff.

Own here on the Gulf our saying is April showers bring Vibrio vulnificus. :) It's a flesh eating bacteria that shows up in the saltwater when it is suddenly over saturated with freshwater. It's definitely not as pretty as flowers, but May vibrio sounds cooler
