The word is Satanic, not Satonic. We've all read the news stories about this and understand exactly what's going on, and it's not the devil invading Pensacola council meetings, it's simply an outlying atheistic group demanding their right to have their message heard the same as the Christians do in most every other meeting. You say you want freedom in America? That's part of it. Last I heard, the Council was considering doing away with the meeting invocation entirely, which is probably the wisest path to take. Religion -- or at least the appearance of its official sanction -- has no place in governmental meetings anyway.
Look: we get it. You're hot. The heat indices are off the charts right now, and your A/C is on the blink. It sucks. But you have recently said that you love the Panhandle during certain months of the year. Now, because it's terribly hot and you opted to come down here in all your weakness, trying to keep going at any cost and probably worrying your family to death, and you're physically miserable and you saw a depressing movie, all of a sudden the Panhandle is the hell hole of the entire country and practically responsible for everything going on anywhere that's bad or that you don't personally approve of.
It's all very disturbing. I find myself wanting to ask you a health question that surely must be on everyone's mind at this point, but damned if I'll be the first to ask it and get pilloried.
In any event, IMHO, Sea, you do need to either sell and get the heck out of here for good, or, if for some reason you can't let go of this area you suddenly hate so furiously, find someone you can trust to oversee your properties for you, even if they cost you more money. It makes no sense for you to continue to subject yourself to this torture, and it's also not fair for you to come on this forum and pile onto us with your sudden hatred for everything about our area and blame the Panhandle for all the sins of the world as you see it.
Yes, that's exactly what you're doing, and don't tell me you're not. It's just wrong. I certainly don't want to hope this is all a result of worsening illness, but it's the only reasonable excuse I can come up with for the behavior you're demonstrating. You even have your friend Hallmark telling you to go home. If you won't listen to me (you never have), for heaven's sake hear him.
Certainly you have a right to be furious at the hand life has dealt you, and maybe that's part of this scenario as well, even though you'd likely never admit it. Just please keep in mind that we -- and the Florida Panhandle -- are not the enemy.
