You know it's almost Winter here and I'm just waiting for the commercial on TV "Come to Florida" and how nice it is there while it shows New York and Michigan in a snow storm.
All goes to show you, it all depends how you look at it. Now some people may look at that summer beach in Florida and the Blizzards here and think the beach is nicer, but I'd LOVE to remake that commercial and show the same three areas, one in Florida and how the business there is losing around $5,000,000.00 a day because of another Hurricane, and then...
I'd show Christmas day in the other two areas. The scene would show a Fireplace with the background being a shot of the windows showing outside: Snow and some deer. Then it would show Christmas morning with some snow gently falling and kids all happy and playing in the snow and drinking hot Cocoa. Then it would cut back to Florida being ripped like Goatse.cx ass by a Hurricane and the power being out.
If you've seen the commercial before where it showed Winter is horrible, you know what I am talking about. And the reason for all this? Perception of a place seems as if it's everything. why try walking in 7 feet of snow when you can be on a beach in Florida drunk?
Well, I hate Spring and Summer, so why sit in 90 degree weather on Christmas with no snow when you can be in a half blizzard with the heat on looking outside at how pretty it looks, and knowing the meaning of a White Christmas?
My half awake ramble.
Anyway, that Hurricane has slowed down a lot. Supposed to be near Florida already but it's in Mexico hanging out. The funny part ids Florida is losing money left and right because as I said They are losing $5,000,000.00 a day waiting for it. Everyone is leaving so only around 10% of the people buying things are actually there, and soon, all of those are going to be gone as well.
Looks like it may actually get stronger too. Just me, I don't have a degree in Meteorologist stuff, but I am trained in severe storms. Anyway deb, hopefully DTE doesn't have to make a trip to you this year and your house isn't damaged.
