After each major hurricane strike in FL, they enact better building code hurricane requirements. It doesn't affect existing grandfathered structures which are, at least by the new code standards, sub-standardly constructed. Now we all know what standards are good for so... At some point in time, all FL buildings will be up to "Code" after all the grandfathered substandard buildings are destroyed or brought up to current code requirements, at least on paper. Or underwater due to Global Warming...

 

The one that broke the insurers was Andrew if I remember rightly. I've also been told that the "Beach Houses" along A1A are uninsurable or at such a high premium to be so.

My sister enjoys Holden Beach in NC. Have to admit it's real nice on the ocean or intracoastal waterway. She actually considered buying beachfront property as an investment and for family use. The final dealbreaker wasn't the property cost but the insurance cost.

Finding examples of hypocrisy in politicians is like finding a straw in a haystack.

Hopefully a farmer doesn't mix straw (bedding material from wheat stems) with his hay (typically dried alfalfa used to feed animals).

MEDLEY, Fla. – A South Florida man is facing three felony charges after police accused him of attacking a woman with a machete because she didn’t have a crack pipe.

Miami-Dade police arrested 45-year-old Roberto Hercules in Hialeah Friday.

According to an arrest report, Hercules was “completely naked,” wearing nothing but painted nails and a cowboy hat when he attacked the victim at Northwest 74th Street and South River Drive in Medley last Tuesday.

 

I keep hoping the next Florida Man story will be about Ron Desantis.

 

The Florida man conspiracy.

I don't think anybody here knows him -- personally that is.

 

 

Apparently, a man from Florida made an announcement last night (per the New York Post)

It is when you steal a car.

According to the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office, Corey Johnson, 29, stole a truck in Riviera Beach before heading north to the base three days later.

A minor offense for a mental health crisis.
Vern Gagne of wrestling fame killed his roommate in a nursing home and no criminal charges were filed. Both had dementia.
