Why? Because, as Hunter Thompson once said, “When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.”
And Florida is all pro.
You know you’re living in a weird state when the governor promotes a pay-per-minute sex chat line.
Or when a congressman asks the House speaker to move a day’s worth of votes so he can watch a college football game.
Or when employees at not just one, not two, but three state prisons use stun guns on their kids as part of “Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day.”
That’s Florida, once again making people snicker at its dumb criminals, strange animals and all-around oddness.
Go here for the rest of the story.

I see why you like that state so much. Here we just have Flying Squirrels, religious political radio, and continuous remembrance of a lost war.
Load up the station wagon.

They don't call it Flori-duh for nothing! The Tampa and St. Pete newspapers at my parents' house are full of those bizarre stories — there's never a dull moment! When things seem slow someone's poodle gets eaten by an alligator, and the crazy starts up again.
