51. I hate this clown

But the "God's waiting room" is old news meant to gin up outrage. Warm weather is more pleasant to die in as long as you are air conditioned indoors. I'm old and in New England and winters suck. Florida is affordable and available and I don't doubt for a minute that if I lived full time in Florida I would resent the shit out of old assholes (similar to myself, but with a bit more cash) moving in and using up state resources if I was working in the summer heat to support my family while they styled in over 55 parks and overtaxed medical resources, so I might very well be resentful. Ain't nobody moving up "North of the Notches" (upstate New Hampshire) for their golden years. And the inverse is not true.
