  1. It is actually fairly hot, no doubt there is chili oil in there... and after your mouth and tongue are already red from spicy food, the strong sweetness of the plum followed by unexpected burning of the chili and alcohol make for a pretty intense sensation. DEE-LICIOUS!

  2.  

    Hours after a 15-year-old girl was accused of killing her 16-year-old brother Monday night in their Columbia County home, News4Jax learned that her 11-year-old sister was also charged in connection with the case.

     

    The Sheriff's Office said 15-year-old Misty “Ariel” Renee Kornegay admitted she shot her 16-year-old brother, then walked away from the home with her 11-year-old sister, Nicole, leaving their 3-year-old sister at home.

     

    Deputies said the shooting happened about 9:30 p.m. at 1205 Sophie Drive in the north part of the county, not far from White Springs.

     

    "Anytime you come on scene with something this horrific, which you have juveniles or children involved, it's pretty unsettling, even to seasoned law enforcement and deputies," said Columbia County Sheriff Mark Hunter.

     

    Investigators said the parents were out of town and Ariel Kornegay (pictured left with Nicole, right) retrieved the handgun used in the shooting from the parents' bedroom. They have not revealed a motive.

    No teenage murder story would be complete without incest and pedo-uncle Kevin.

  3. Florida will be underwater once the sea levels really start rising.

     

    Highest elevation in FL is 345 feet, some day it'll be called the Florida Isles! I wonder what NASA plans to do, it'll be weird seeing the iconic V.A.B. poking up from the ocean some day...

     

    Two co-workers live in FL (forget which areas) - one has lived there for decades, he and his family love it. The other moved there from England (married an American gal) and is perma-thrilled about the weather. I like the PLACE, but as others have said: backward-ass politics and heavily geriatric. The younger parts of the state are afflicted with the same type of self-absorbed materialistic audacity found on the West Coast. I also know two people from previous business projects who are also natives and say they'll stay there until the bitter end. SO, I guess it couldn't be THAT bad.

     

    Major places in FL I have been to: Ft. Lauderdale, Miami, Tampa, Orlando, and Jacksonville. Also been to Kissimmee and St. Augustine where my aunt and uncle live. I like the weather temporarily, but have always lived in a dry climate so the humidity is barely tolerable for me after a few days. I LOVE the salty breezes, bright beaches and vast open marshlands - but tidal waves and hurricanes aren't my cup of tea :)

     

    I flew into Ft. Lauderdale (off-season) for an on-site job and had some spare time before the week began, so I spent the day at the beach, then drove west across the peninsula to Naples and got to take in the splendor of the Everglades. The funniest memory from that trip was picking an at-capacity lobster restaurant for dinner, and being the only patron under 60. The decor was awful, 6 shades of pink/taupe/mauve peppered with pastel greens and blues. No joke, I seriously heard multiple simultaneous conversations about hip replacement surgery, golf cart repair, and great-grandchildren, and pretty much every car in the parking lot was a Cadillac or Lincoln.

  4. some amazing creativity has come from america, and some atrocious hypocrisy, there are beautiful landscapes and amazing people, and swathes of mediocrity and rampant exploitation

     

    Can't the same be said for almost every country? I think more countries are more alike (people-wise) than they think. It is a shame our respective media outlets and governments have so much power to shape how different people perceive each other, because despite the Internet and how "connected" we are, there is still much distortion, stereotype and prejudice.
