My brother had the nerve to abandon his immediate family and move to Tampa, FL many years ago. Below is a message I received from him today…
[cue visa commercial]
air condition electric bill for DEC…………………….$
misquote protection for the kids………………… $ 4.25
property taxes…………………….
gas per gallon……………………
tomorrow’s high……………………..
This is why we live in fl.
My response…
Big deal. Global Warming took the year off so you didn’t have a dozen hurricanes. Write me an e-mail when that happens (again).
Maybe it will read something like this…
[cue hurricane warning systen]
scarce plywood…………………….$50 per sheet
drilling holes into our concrete house to attach said plywood…..a day off work and potential areas for water intrusion into our house $ spent vacation day
Purchase of a generator……$ 800
Summer heat that last for nine months……$ 300 per month for air conditioning
Real Estate Bubble Burst and not able to sell your concrete house with holes and water damage…..priceless
I’ll take KTOWN anyday.
