Well, the "duh""we suffer isn't from us crackers; it's from all the damnyankees that have moved down here, and the snowbirds just add to it.

Driving this time of year is unbelieveable.

Hmmm. Now you got me thinking. I moved down here 13 years ago so I'm a damn yankee. However, my wife grew up here since she was 12 y/o ... what does that make her since she's not a cracker?

Now, our daughter was born here last year and we're all here to stay. So, is she a cracker or an anchor baby or both?

I never have been able to properly understand and navigate the "Florida-ism's" of all y'all old crackers!

Yeah, but that's just the backed up traffic from the drive through funeral homes and early bird specials. ..........................................

I'd say she's a Fl. native, and y'all are OK by association.
