NYOB,
Yes, my husband is a bum who posts 24/7 in
rec.boats.
His
lives
his life
vicariously by fabricating stories about how great
he
is.
;
)
I hope he doesn't read your post. He sounds like a
classic
Narcissist...and they don't deal very well with
criticism.
Or reality :-)
Maybe that's why NOYB is thoroughly convinced that his
little
swamp
town is the greatest place on earth, with the greatest
people,
the
best
of everything.
Hehehe. Those swampbillies sure have a lot of money.
My little swamp town just raised $12 million for
underserved
children
this
past Saturday at our Winter Wine Festival auction.
" The grand total far surpasses last year's giving of
$7.6
million, a
number
that had elevated the event to the most successful wine
charity
auction in
the world. The Naples wine festival surpassed even the
prestigious
Napa
Valley festival. "

If they auctioned off the entire town (and possessions)
of
Snellville, they
probably couldn't raise half as much money as a single
day
auction
in
Naples.
So, NOYB, how much time have you spent in Snellville to be
able
to
say
such things? Also, is money your sole qualification for
how
nice
a
place is to live? That's all?
Of course not. I went boating/fishing on Friday and Sunday
this
weekend.
I went Saturday.
I didn't have to cut a hole in the ice.
Neither did I. Where to hell did that idea pop in your head?
I
also went to see Phantom of the Opera, and ate at a Fodor's
top
100
restaurant Saturday night...and only had to drive 20 minutes
from
my
house
to do both.
I can do the same from MY house.
I watched the Superbowl yesterday while sitting on my lanai
I watched sitting on my deck, with about 20 other people,
that
were
around my age, NOT retirees.
So you like sitting around outside in 40 degree weather? Most
people
prefer
Florida weather.
It was 64.
You can't help but lie, can you? The temperature in Snellville
when
the
game started at 6pm ET was in the mid 50's. By the end of the
game,
it had
dipped to the upper 40's.
Here's historical data for Snellville:
http://www.wunderground.com/history/...lyHistory.html
Hehe, I don't live in Snellville. Look at P'tree-Dekalb airport
history
for Sunday. 61. It was 64 on my deck. Did I say that it stayed the
same
temp. all night?
You must remember, I lived in FL for many years, therefore I
know what I'm talking about.
Hehehe. Yeah, according to you, you lived in Naples... in SE
Florida.
Never made a mistake, NOYB? I'll bet I've spent more years in
Florida
than YOU have!!!!
BTW--When did Naples move to the west coast?
How long did you live in the Atlanta area?
I'd never do something so stupid.
Yeah, nobody would want you here. So, admittedly, you've never
lived
here. Then, what makes you an expert on the area?

haven't
decided whether I'll go boating 2 or 3 days
this coming weekend...or if I'll go golfing on one of those
days
instead.
I don't golf.
The cows and goats get in the way?
Bet there's more cows in Collier County than in Dekalb.
The following weekend, I planning on driving 90 minutes
across
Alligator
Alley to attend the World's largest boat show.
Whoopee!
I figured that since you're on a boating newsgroup, you'd have
an
interest
in boats. I figured wrong.
There is a huge boat show at the World Congress Center each
year,
and
then several smaller ones. Whoopee, because apparently you think
that
because you live in Naples, you are the only one able to attend
a
flippin' boat show, which is quite funny!
Not any ol' boat show. The world's largest boat show. You can
even
go on
sea trials at the show. Can you do that at the World Congress
Center?
So it HAS to be the biggest (by the promoter's standards) to be of
any
value? No other boat show in the world would do, huh?
Several weekends after that,
I'll be towing my boat down to the Keys for some
much-needed
R&R...and be
back in time for my 8am patient on Monday.
IF I were to live in FL again, it'd be the Keys, not quite so
many
retired zombies there.
By then it will be
April/May...and the world's greatest tarpon, kingfish, and
snook
fishery
comes alive just minutes from the dock behind my house.
Bass and stripers here.
I'm talking about in my backyard...not some 40 minute drive to
a
land-locked
lake.
Big deal. I don't have to deal with the Depends generation
minute
by
minute.
And, Lake Lanier is considered one of the best spotted bass
fisheries
in the U.S. Then, within a few hours there are many, many
beautiful
lakes available to me.
It's hard to believe that all of these great things are
available
in
my lil'
ol' "swamp" town...plus the most millionaires per capita
than
anywhere else
in the country.
Again, fine, if you like living with the Depends set.
North Collier Hospital, which is about 2 miles from my house,
delivers 300
babies/month. They're not being conceived by "the Depends
set".
Naples
also has 4 public high schools, and 4 private schools that go
through
grade
12. They're not attended by "the Depends set".
There are people, such as yourself, that are needed to change
those
Depends, etc. Take a look at the median age of Naples, compared
to
other places. Remember now, statistic wise, a couple of years
means
a
lot.
You like statistics, eh? Then you'll really like this statistic:
"Between 1995 and 2000, *NAPLES, FLORIDA*.; Las Vegas; Charlotte,
N.C.;
Atlanta; and Portland, Ore., were the major cities that saw the
greatest
growth among single people 25 to 39 who had college diplomas,
according to
the bureau's first-ever report on the subject."
http://www.theolympian.com/home/spec...4/140664.shtml
Hehe! had to look long and hard for that, huh? Let's have a look
see at
the median ages!!!!!
Jeez, I wonder why, if Naples isn't a dying field for old farts,
why is
there more assisted living units in Naples than just about any area
in
the U.S. The only place there are more are ALSO in Fl.
30% of Naples' population falls between the ages of 45 and 64. 27%
of the
population of Snellville falls between 45 and 64. The per capita
income in
Naples is $61,141. In Snellville, it's $25,992.
Why are these statistics important?
I don't know. Perhaps because you are enamored with Snellville, for
some reason? Now, take a look at your percentages above. Naples has a
much bigger population than Snellville.
Since the 45 to 64 year old age group is the group of folks most
likely to:
a) have dental problems, b) have the money to pay for their dental
needs,
and c) actually take the time to go to the dentist, Naples is the
ideal
location for a dentist...especially a dentist who likes to boat and
fish.
Yes, I've said all along, you are only interested in the money aspect.
You forgot to include stats for above 64 years old, why is that?
If you're a boater and/or fisherman, then the next statistics become
important:
Naples: 14.4 sq. mi., of which 2.4 sq mi. is water
Snellville: 9.7 sq. mi., of which 0.04 sq mi. is water
Naples avg. winter temps: 67 (Dec), 66 (Jan), 67 (Feb)
Atlanta avg. winter temps: 45 (Dec), 43 (Jan), 46 (Feb)
Naples avg. Summer temps: 82 (June), 83 (July), 83 (August)
Atlanta avg. Summer temps: 77 (June), 79 (July), 79 (August)
Naples Highest Recorded temps: 96 (June), 98 (July), 97 (Aug)
Atlanta Highest Recorded temps: 101 (June), 105 (July), 102 (Aug)

Yes, they ARE important. Striper fishing here is best in moderately
cool weather. Also, you made a statement that you had gone fishing, I
said I did too, and you said but I didn't have to break the ice. Now,
look at your averages above. How much ice do you think formed on the
lakes at a COLDEST average temp of 43? Now, again, what temps above
does it look like you can't boat and fish in the area?
