[Low Slung] I noticed that as we get older our bodies tend to follow a particular pattern: everything gets bigger, harrier and closer to the ground. |

[Investing] Anyone wishing to start a savings and/or an investment program for themselves should check out these two online options. WealthFront and LearnVest. Do your due diligence and see if one of them can do what you need to have done. Yes, they do charge a fee, but it is marginal compared to the other advisors. I did look at them and if I were younger I would have given them a real shot. I have no skin in the game with them. |

[Snowbird Infestation] As someone commented earlier, this crop of snowbirds is a different strain. They seem to have more attitude than usual. |

Did you know that Bosco chocolate syrup was the “blood” in the famous shower scene in Psyco. Bosco Jingle |
Lay off Murrays Market (they should change it to Mo-Rays). They provide a great service for us, especially at this time of year-and the people working there are great. If I need something, I don’t have to endure the unwashed masses and long lines at the WD. |

Does anyone know someone who does vinyl siding? |
![]() [Crooks] The FKAA is already charging people for out going water to the sewer system, and my street in not even connected to the main suck pipe. I know there are many people suing, but what is the latest poop on this? How can a private company charge people for nothing? That is like going to a food store and being charged for an empty shopping cart just because they have no products. |
HAPPY NEW YEAR! For my New Year’s card this year I unabashedly plagiarize Dave Barry: As the old year finally staggers to a close, Americans set aside their differences, if only briefly, and join together in the cherished, time-honored tradition of pretending that New Year’s Eve is fun. So let’s raise a glass to toast the demise of 2015. Then let’s set the glass down untasted, in case Heaven forbid it contains gluten. Then let’s go to bed. |

[Snowbirds] It is that time again to light up the Keys. I am not referring to holiday lights but rather to the snowbirds who are so afraid of the dark that they turn on every outside light and leave them all on night. What are these people afraid of? Iguanas? Deer? Locals? |

Happy Anniversary to my wonderful wife Lee Ann. |
[Crook] My ex-boss is jerking me around for my last two weeks’ paycheck. Any thoughts on what I could or should do? |

Traffic Advisory: Due to the influx of good intentions from New Year’s resolutions, the Road to Hell is closed for repaving. I trust all of you will find an alternative route. |
[Grants] If an artist or sportsman gets a government grant and that grant comes out of my income taxes, can I sue? |
![]() The big exception in dating sites is Plenty Of Fish (pof.com) which charges absolutely nothing for all the basic functions, does not put your email out for spam, and lets you sort by activity date within the distance radius you select and other filters. I have used it before, as have friends, and have never heard a complaint about the site (only about the dates). OKCupid is also pretty good, just not many people on there, and if you decide you want to go invisible for a while, they either want money or there are restrictions. If you try one of these sites, I recommend POF.com. Although there are a lot of good people out there just trying to meet someone outside their usual circle, remember that not everyone on these sites is sincere or even safe, so use some sense. That goes for you too, Dude. Good luck! Link |

[Different Cultures] I spent 30 minutes talking to them to learn more about their culture until the barman told me they were umbrellas. |
[Jersey Girls] While sitting in the parking lot at Winn-Dixie, I noticed that the Jersey girls have arrived! They are easy to identify right now. They are either snow white or beet red, a tattoo or two, and blabbing nonstop. |
