Chinese embassy told me covid came to China from Texas armadillo meat sold in the wet markets ... something to do with everything is big in Texas and men in China..
Sorry for your loss dude but in Florida everyone needs to assume there is a gator in the water. Yes, I look into the toilet before I pee or poop. We can't possibly put a sign next to every body of water. And if we did do we need to put it in every language. And, if the person forgot their eyeglasses do we need an intercom announcement every 5 minutes. And, should we not put guard rails to keep people from falling in and drowning? And exactly why did she need to be right next to the water? I feel bad as it's a real tragedy as it's pretty obvious she wasn't aware of the danger BUT she should have been.

See that blue chit....there's a gator or 1,000+ in everyone one of those blue dots. When you fly into Orlando all you see is water everywhere. If I zoomed into that map you'd see even more blue dots.

Living up in the 12 o'clock region of that map, I can tell you you cant drive a 1/2 any direction mile without hitting a body of water
I know the above was late last year but I just saw it and have to post my 2 cents.Golf cart wrecks and fires rampant across Florida: ‘Housewives getting drunk and crashing’
Once limited to puttering across the links, electric vehicles are now everywhere in bustling Sunshine State communities, which tout themselves as “golf cart friendly.”
Excerpt:
And while technically illegal, some parents allow their minor children to drive their carts, adding yet another layer of risk to the electric vehicle equation.
Uh, excuse me...... even the PARENTS, drunk or not, don't belong on public roads and streets alongside licensed vehicles driving the damn golf carts. I blame the local authorities for looking the other way. It's likely been that way for some time but the numbers have grown drastically recently, upping the odds for carts vs. car accidents.
