Here's an excellent list of odd thing that occured in Florida this year. It seems that state is as weird as New Jersey. It deserves it's own weird magazine.

Yes, it is weird. I've read that article already, though. Florida also happens to be my home state, and I've lived here for my whole life.

Illusionist David Copperfield used magic to prevent being robbed. He was walking to a tour bus with two assistants after a West Palm Beach show when four armed teenagers demanded valuables. The assistants turned over several hundred dollars. Copperfield had a wallet, passport and cell phone in his pockets, but when he turned them inside out, they vanished.
Favorite one.

Florida is the southern peninsula of Ohio.
(I mean, c'mon, Floridians talk like Ohioans!)

Not the ones I know. They talk like New Jerseyans, Colombians, and Venezuelans.

When I went to Michigan to visit my cousins there were only maybe one or two sounds that we pronounced differently.
Everytime you post a link to that site I see it a wtftv for a sec.

Yuck.
Hurricanes, sandy beaches, largest drug trafficking state, hurricanes, escaping pythons, the everglades, and hurricanes.
Not my cup of tea.

Yeah, well it's Florida. Cops and Alligators are the two most common nuisance species in the state.

I would have thought tourists would be up there somewhere as well...

Tourists are a cash crop. They're grown in places like the Disney World resort, Universal, Seaworld, and Holy Land Experience. Smaller scale tourist farming takes place too. One of the better known small tourist farmers is Gatorland.

A Deland man had a postcard returned to his home with a "return to sender stamp." He found it unusual because he didn't send the card in the first place -- a previous owner did. In 1956. and they say the US postal Service isn't improving their service... :p
