When it comes to race relations, Maryland is a leader of the

I suppose you included Maryland in the 'et cetera', eh?

Perhaps you should spend a bit of time looking in your own

I have seen far more racism in Maryland and DC than I ever
have in
Florida but I have not spent much time up in the south Georgia
part.
My daughter went to school up in the pan handle and she says that
whole I-10 corridor is unreconstructed southerners.
Perhaps that is what Harry is referring to. He is a
Jacksonville fan.


The "whole I-10 corridor" of Florida is very sparsely
populated. There
are no substantial towns along it from Jacksonville to
Tallahassee and
not much in the way of population from Tallahassee to Alabama. The
Jacksonville area is populated with over-religious,
conservative and
backwards people, but Tallahassee is hardly that way. Even in
Jacksonville, though, the huge Baptist churches were integrated.
Catholics were the ones discriminated against...and I suspect
the Jax
area was far too backwards to appeal to very many Jews.

I liked the seasonality of NE Florida, compared to southern
Florida, and
I also liked the uncrowded beaches, the flora, the boating and the
fishing. But it was pretty much a cultural and intellectual
wasteland,
otherwise.

If I were going to move back to Florida, I'd go for Fernandina
in far NE
Florida, or somewhere around Ft. Lauderdale. Both are great for
boating
and fishing and Ft. Lauderdale is not a cultural, intellectual and
overly religious wasteland.

Looks like you've gotten off the 'racism' kick and are now on
the cultural and
intellectual kick. Well, southern MD is not your basic
intellectual and cultural
hotbed, is it Krause?

I was wondering about that. If one wants intellectual and
cultural stimulation, one doesn't move to Podunk, MD.

Hell, the *only* things MD have going for it are Annapolis and
Box Hill Pizzeria crab cakes.

Well, the Calvert Marine Museum is pretty close to Huntingtown.
And there's probably
an adult book store around there somewhere. So he's probably kept
pretty well
stimulated. He does say he thinks about sex a lot.


I think about sex because I'm still having it. You seem to think a lot
about model airplanes, probably because you are not having sex.

Do you never stop bragging? I'll bet you were getting laid
constantly during your
trip around the Horn, eh? Do you keep that Maryland Red barn shaking?


I'm sorry you've had to sublimate what little sex drive you have left
into so many hobbies.

Good to know you're so concerned with my sex life.

I wish I were half the manly man you are.

Harry, it's come to my attention that you are not very well liked
hereabouts. I have
an idea for you: Try saying something nice about folks other than
yourself. Who
knows, it may show good results.


I've complimented your very nice wife many times. I haven't seen "good"
results. I've complimented Skipper a few times for his writing
abilities, and pointed out that he was the only real rightie here who
could write, but, alas, he apparently died. No good came of that, either.

What do you have in mind?



What were you expecting? And from whom?
