After getting all hot and bothered reading Mullinator’s “love” letters, I took a peek at his profile and discover that he lives 45 minutes from me. I know Sanibelman lives in Florida. Any other Florida dopers? * * * “Words fascinate me. They always have. For me, browsing in a dictionary is like being turned loose in a bank.” - Eddie Cantor ---

Woohoo! I’ve been recognized, by a newbie, no less! I know Michelle and Eden are in Tampa, and I think that Spiritus Mundi and RonaldBarnhardt are in Orlando. Not sure about others, though. ---

Hate to say it, but as of about a week ago, I now live about 8 hours from you, since I am an Atlanta doper (discussed in a couple of previous threads if you care to search em out.) * * * We went right out there and refused to do accoustical versions of the electrical songs that we had refused to record in the first place. ---

I don’t live down there, but my in-laws are in central FL, and Mrs. Firefly and I pass that way every so often. So keep me on the mailing list for any Tampa or Orlando get-togethers, just in case. ---

That’s what I get for assuming profiles are always up-to-date. Won’t make that mistake twice. “Words fascinate me. They always have.
