I found out why YaHey moved to Florida.

To open a motel. Ugliest ... motel ... EVAH!
Interesting that YaHey named the place "The Fawlty Towers Motel." One would have thought he would have paid homage to President Obama and named it "The
Faulty
Towers Motel."
When times get tough, the tough get naked. At least that's what a Florida motel owner hopes, as he turns his 32-room property into a potential magnet for nudists.
The Fawlty Towers Motel in Cocoa Beach, Fla., is set to go clothing-optional May 1, after years of declining business and increasing competition from larger chain hotels, its owner told Florida Today.

Did Mr. YaHey really move to Florida? What's he gonna do, surrounded by all those snowbird and permanent New York Jewish emigres? Why, it's worse than living in Israel, down there! ;-)

Yep. He sure did. He also said he is proudly engaged in concealed carry (also true, according to him). Said he wanted to be like George Zimmerman (I may have made up this statement).

I thought he went down there to audition as an alligator wrestler.

You have a small red A sign stuck in your bushes.

I've replaced that small A red sign with a bigger security company sign (it reads Smith & Wesson), just in case you ever try to visit my home ;-)

It is time for you to do what other transplanted yankees do. Go tell your true southern neighbors how good things were back up north, and how they should all start doing things the northern way. Welcome to Florida. August is hell.

Nice place. I may have to join you in a couple dozen years when it is time to retire.

That's a negatory. Plus, my place has air conditioning (crackers don't need air conditioning), and is in a golf course community (crackers like to air pellet armadillos for fun). When the revolution comes, I will be on the correct side of the gated community.
Two more months and it's adios to the Midwest after 21 years of being there on/off.

My place has air conditioning, so I guess I'm not a cracker then. That's disappointing.
Being in the golf course community doesn't make you a cracker, it makes you a sucker.
Research has proven that 98.32 percent of people who live in golf communities in Florida are yankees who paid 26 percent more for their property than its worth - and that's a fact! I don't have any links, or other proof - but I'm pretty sure my numbers are good.

I'm in my late 40's and getting ready to semi-retire to academia in 8 years - I'll be finished with my PhD in another year or so, and by then will have 12 years of graduate level teaching experience. My plan is to move from adjunct faculty to an associate professor level position. I'll have everything in my life paid off in about 4 years (house, retirement savings, etc). I guess us liberals know how to save our money and plan for the future.

If they only charged me 26% more than what it's worth, then they ripped themselves off - I was willing to pay 50% more.

You guys also know how to hang out in nice, safe, non-threatening careers. Academics? Not Navy SEAL-ish, bro-ham. ;-)
