Oh joy,

whilst you reasons seem pretty reasonable I expect we are about to enjoy the usual too many immigrants, too much tax, not enough hanging, etc diatribes. Still should be entertaining.

Just out of interest, do you find that you see much of the Scientologists in Clearwater?

The Scientologists own a lot of downtown Clearwater and some of St. Petes too. They are not hard to spot, wearing white shirts and black pants, its like there bloody uniform.

1:Too many immigrants
2:Too much tax
3:Not enough hanging
4:Too many left wing liberals that oppose peoples individual views on Immigrants, Tax and Hanging
5: People that complain about diatribe and then admit to finding it entertaining in the next breath. :rolleyes:
