I know a place where the grass is really greener...


On my first day arriving in Florida, I set out to gather supplies. It was late on a Sunday evening and my first stop was Wal-Mart. While I was waiting in line to purchase my sunblock and random toiletries, I glance over and see cartloads of alcoholic beverages. "Wait a minute, it's Sunday!", I exclaim. "Excuse me?" "Are you allowed to purchase alcohol today?", I ask the clerk. Clerk: "Well yeah, why wouldn't you?", she replies. I already know I'm going to like this place.

This new discovery leads me to the liquor store directly down the street where I pull in next to a girl hurling her guts up in the parking lot. The sight of this determined young woman emptying her stomach in an attempt to make room for the alcohol she's about to purchase shows me these people mean business.
