This is awesome! Great job, Josiah!

All great ideas! I may need to create a poll for this question. Haha!

Wow! Lot’s of good ideas! No consensus yet it sounds like though. Haha!

I’ll probably write-in Rand Paul.

Well, Florida is called the “Sunshine State” for a reason. It’s not actually very stormy, but usually warm and sunny all the time, especially during the winter. The weather is consistently nice. During the spring, though, it will rain every day at basically the same time, but not any huge storms that are bad. I experienced worse storms when I…[Read more]

@Reagan- Thanks for taking the time to write such an exhaustive reply! 🙂 There seems to be a disconnect between what I am trying to say and what you think I am saying. We define terms differently.
