A fairly new Floridian wanted to get to know his fellow Floridians, so he went to a home for senior citizens - what they call a home for assisted living.

As he walked in, he encountered what looked like a 95 year old woman and he looks at her and says, "Do you know who I am?"

And she says, "Son, I don't know who you are".

And he says, "Look at me, come on. You don't know who I am??"

And she says, "I'm so sorry my little boy, but I don't know who you are".

He says, "How can you not know who I am? I am the celebrity of today. I am on television all the time and look at my hairdo, look at my height, look at my stature, look at the way I speak. Everyone in the *world* knows me!"

She says, "Sir, I don't know who you are!"

He gets very very upset. He starts hollering, "This can't be! How can you not know who I am?! Nobody is ignorant of my existence and my identity. Now tell me, you must know, who *am* I?

Another lady who must've been around 100 years old walks over to him and says, "Relax, relax, son. This happens very often around here. We'll call the head nurse, and she'll tell you who you are."

Chuckle...

My grandmother took to faking dementia so that the kids, grandkids, and great grandkids would spend time recalling happy memories of who they were

Sadly, she's no longer faking... But still has her good days

Miami is the sexiest city in the world, and this travel website tells us why
https://www.sun-sentinel.com/travel/florida/fl-fea-miami-sexiest-city-20191022-fpstrdzkzvdpvpxgvioyzj37ai-story.html

The 14 Sexiest Neighborhoods in America, Ranked
1. South Beach
Miami
Sex permeates the air when you roll across the MacArthur Causeway into South Beach. Or, maybe that’s just the humidity. Either way, when there are models literally standing in front of you at the grocery store, topless girls laying out on the beach, bars open until 5 am, clubs that rank among the best in the world, half-naked people strolling down the street, and a Southern heat that makes everything just a bit steamier, no other place in the country can lay claim to the title sexiest neighborhood in America.
None.

I live part of the year in South Miami less than a mile from the UM campus,
and in NC an area close to Nikki Beach Farms and a few other states at times.

My brother in-law used to live in Waco. I always used to give him a fit when I pronounced it wacko. My wife still gives me shit every time I say it

Yeah, I've heard it called 'wacko' many times over the years, especially since of the debacle with David Koresh and his Branch Davidians.

Mostly thanks to the TV hit show Miami Vice. I used to like hanging out in South Beach when I moved down here in the late 80's. Now it's just a hassle or maybe I just got too old.
