If you are so inclined, it is much easier to obtain a CCW in Florida than it is in California.

Don’t know if that’s of interest to you or not.

Well, it wasn’t the best gym in terms of equipment and help from the staff (I had no idea I was doing one of the weight machines wrong until I joined my current gym) but I’d hardly call it a turd. It’s a Christian-themed gym is all. It’s not like they’re dragging people in off the streets and forcing them to run on the treadmill while Jack Chick cartoons are shown on the TV and Fred Phelps preaches from the speakers.

What, you think Christians have cooties? 😉
