  1. OK OK OK.
    So I don’t have any idea where in FL Frank lives, or even if he in fact lives in FL at all. I will not pass judgment in anyone’s choice of where to live. Truth is, I did years zero through 17 in that State, and then I escaped. . . but that’s another story. I can say that, I am a native.
    In the realm of IMAO, it would appear that Frank may benefit from what some would consider an A1VVs1 class experience. I speak of a local attraction in South Dade County that has loose affiliation with the M part of this O. Yes, in public image it is known as simply The Monkey Jungle. Before you form some idea of what this facility is or isn’t, let it be known that it is NOT your typical ‘local attraction’ – along the lines of some of the other ‘jungles’ in the vicinity [e.g. The Parrot Jungle, The Orchid Jungle] or even The Serpentarium or The Miami Seaquarium – the latter is actually quite well known. This is different, this is special.
    No, it is not government. But it could be. Come to think of it, it wouldn’t be all that surprising if it were.
    Frank, I do not know you, but I know that this will be an adventure, albeit on a small scale, but an adventure nonetheless. Maybe this is destiny. Probably maybe.
    Go before the season is over, or face the consequences. If you don’t, you risk everything, well maybe not everything, just the ‘M’ part. I really don’t think anyone would be interested in IAO, because it just sounds so, so, so 20th century.
    You will be vastly out numbered.
    You will be in your element.
    A situation some would reference as “a target rich environment.”
    It not for your friends, but even they know to expect it from you.
    Do not follow the US1 signs, just proceed to Goulds (turn away from the Sea — Goulds by the Sea is not a Republican neighborhood) and head west. If you reach US27, you have gone too far. Only then may you ask directions from a local or actually follow a sign.
    Do take recording devices, as well as adequate personal protection. Depending on where you are, it could take you some time to reach the location, but then again, maybe it is closer than you think. A can of WD40 and a roll of paper towels are in order, simply the best adhesive remover of all time. Windex cleans the oily residue quite nicely from most surfaces, so take some of that was well, unless you are driving a rental car. In that case, who cares?
    Do it before you reach middle age – and I don’t mean 50. Where did that notion come from anyway? Since when do average people live to be 100?
    BTW, if you have passed 35 years on planet, please disregard this notice.
