LOL.  Jacksonville to NYC is about twice as far if you're measuring by driving 
time but less than twice as far in miles.  I've driven them both.  I'd much 
rather go to Key West from Jacksonville.

  We don't call it Key West for nothing.

  Which is farther?  Jacksonville to New York City or Jacksonville to Key West?

RE: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] Gatornews from the Palm Beach Post and Miami Herald courtesy of Junogator

[Jerry Belloit]

When I lived there in the early 80s, Miami was truly and international city.
The population back then was about 1/3 Anglo, 1/3 Hispanic, 1/6 Black, and
1/6 Haitian.  Of the Hispanic population, there were significant Columbian,
Venezuelan, and Nicaraguan populations.  In the Black population there were
also a good sized African community, particularly Nigerian.  In addition, in
the Anglo community, there were significant Canadian, German, and French
groups.  At the time I lived there, there were more international banks in
Miami than anywhere else in the United States, including NYC, Chicago, and
San Francisco.  At that time, Miami was one of the most awesome places I
ever had lived.  There was something to do all the time.  We could go to a 3
or 4 star restaurant every evening and not repeat for months-the cuisine was
incredible-Indian, Spanish, Columbian, Argentinean, Cuban, Hungarian,
French, Belgium, Thai, .

Let's not get carried away.  Miami is South Florida.  While it has a
population of Yankees, native Floridians, and immigrant Caribbean islanders
and Central Americans, it's still Floridaa and American.  Florida has other
multi-ethnic areas: Tarpon Springs and St. Augustine come to mind.

Tweets from practice, hmmm, reporters aren't allowed at practice, so that

When native Floridians say South Florida they usually mean Palm Beach, Broward 
and Dade counties. 
 
It's not a geographical definition; it's a cultural definition.  
 
There is 'Old Florida' and then there is 'South Florida.'  The definition may 
be 
broadening to include the Fort Myers area of the SW coast due to recent rapid 
growth and immigration.  These areas include high levels of immigrants 
from other parts of the country and foreign countries. Much of this growth has 
occurred since the invention of air-conditioning, which I well remember.  Key 
West is part of 'Old Florida,' but you may be right that it is Caribbean, like 
many of 'Old Florida's' coastal fishing villages.

When native Floridians say South Florida they usually mean Palm Beach,
Broward and Dade counties. 
 
It's not a geographical definition; it's a cultural definition.  
 
There is 'Old Florida' and then there is 'South Florida.'  The definition
may be broadening to include the Fort Myers area of the SW coast due to
recent rapid growth and immigration.  These areas include high levels of
immigrants from other parts of the country and foreign countries. Much of
this growth has occurred since the invention of air-conditioning, which I
well remember.  Key West is part of 'Old Florida,' but you may be right that
it is Caribbean, like many of 'Old Florida's' coastal fishing villages.

When native Floridians say South Florida they usually mean Palm Beach,
Broward and Dade counties. 

 

It's not a geographical definition; it's a cultural definition.  

 

There is 'Old Florida' and then there is 'South Florida.'  The definition
may be broadening to include the Fort Myers area of the SW coast due to
recent rapid growth and immigration.  These areas include high levels of
immigrants from other parts of the country and foreign countries. Much of
this growth has occurred since the invention of air-conditioning, which I
well remember.  Key West is part of 'Old Florida,' but you may be right that
it is Caribbean, like many of 'Old Florida's' coastal fishing villages.

TT was a bit taller than Brantle and, more importantly, left handed. Perhaps 
both Pounceys snap high and to the left, but we never noticed it as it fit 
within Tebow's natural rhythm.

Well if you want it that way, Miami is an international city.  Some argue
that it is not even in the USA.

They didn't even consider Collier County since you couldn't get there from
anywhere until they extended I-75.  (Am I so old that I remember going to
Naples before I-75?  How about going to Sanibel Island by ferry and Captiva
by boat?

When native Floridians say South Florida they usually mean Palm Beach,
Broward and Dade counties. 

 

It's not a geographical definition; it's a cultural definition.  

 

There is 'Old Florida' and then there is 'South Florida.'  The definition
may be broadening to include the Fort Myers area of the SW coast due to
recent rapid growth and immigration.  These areas include high levels of
immigrants from other parts of the country and foreign countries. Much of
this growth has occurred since the invention of air-conditioning, which I
well remember.  Key West is part of 'Old Florida,' but you may be right that
it is Caribbean, like many of 'Old Florida's' coastal fishing villages.

The Gators continued to struggle with the center-quarterback exchange.

Addazio said he counted three bad snaps on 63 plays against  
Alabama, but others were to Brantley's left, forcing him to reach

I've tended to notice the shotgun snaps high and to the left as well,  
but never thought about the effect other than slightly upsetting the  
timing of a play.


TT was a bit taller than Brantle and, more importantly, left handed.  
Perhaps both Pounceys snap high and to the left, but we never noticed  
it as it fit within Tebow's natural rhythm.


Thinking of it, I would want a left handed long snapper hiking to a  
right handed QB, and vice-versa.

Generally, the term "south Florida" refers to the greater Miami area, and 
implies everything urban that goes along with that.

Geographically,as pointed out here by the pedantic among us [smile], there is 
much more to south Florida.

In terms of culture, I'd put Key West closer to the Caribbean than I would to 
south Florida.

OK!  Now, you're confusing this poor Tennessee boy.  I am thoroughly confused!  
Looking at a map, there ain't much South of Pahokee.  It looks like it's all 
swamp!  I am dropping out of this, becasue evidently the only thing that is 
South Florida is the Caribbean Sea being that Key West isn't even South 
Florida.  I suppose there is NO South Florida it's all in my imagination and 
tour books.  :-)  What is exactly South Florida?  ...and is means is.  :-)

I marched through Pahokee in a parade when I was in the Navy and I can assure 
you, it's not South Florida either.

OOPS!  I was thinking he was from Pahokee?  I googled and that's Dunkley.  
Sorry!  I should have checked my "stats" first.

Rainey is from Lakeland, and that is most assuredly NOT South Florida!

No, I will argue that Key West is South Florida.  If Key West isn't South 
Florida, then it's the Caribbean.

Correction: THERE IS NO CROSS-FLORIDA BARGE CANAL.

If there were, the fact that Yeehaw Junction is south of it would NOT make Y.J. 
South Florida, either.  Come to think of it, Key West isn't South Florida.

No, neither Paula nor I have heard him before.  I don't think he's scheduled to 
give a speech, just discuss the documentary and the Writer's Project, but it 
should be interesting.  We have the complete works of Zora Neale Hurston and 
Paula is reading them now. She was one of the Florida writers that Kennedy 
supervised on the project.

Oh, man... I wish I could come to G'ville for this.  Have you ever heard 
Stetson 
Kennedy speak, Leon?  You will enjoy it immensely.  He's quite a character.
