Those are "your quotes", not mine.People reading the blog would assume that your neighborhood is dangerous.Your town in 2006 had 800 less people than our town. You had 76 violent crimes vs. our 95, you had 661 property crimes vs. our 677. FBI Uniform Crime Report.Not much difference, except if you read your description of your town.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683635484532947257.post-70646504785474154212008-07-09T17:25:00.000-05:002008-07-09T17:25:00.000-05:00432.5 Longwood, Florida crime index 2006413.1 Wilt...432.5 Longwood, Florida crime index 2006<BR/><BR/>413.1 Wilton Manors, Florida crime index 2006<BR/><BR/>The higher the number, the higher the crime.

Don't you remember, you were a sports promoter and were going to use the fireworks at a sporting event?

They were shooting off M-80's that lifted me right off the couch. My job was to see that the puppy was not scarred by this new noise shaking the house. I just don't get noise for noise sake (just like the BOOMING car sound systems),at least most fireworks are pretty....when they don't rain burning debris on your house and trees!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683635484532947257.post-89742321000201023662008-07-07T11:33:00.000-05:002008-07-07T11:33:00.000-05:00There wasn't one fire cracker in my neighborhood. ...There wasn't one fire cracker in my neighborhood. The only sounds came from Palm Springs fireworks display in the stadium, which is a couple of miles away. It was just enough for Sophie to look for me, but was over in 20 minutes. For us, that's it until Veterans Day, when they have a fireworks display at the O'Donnell golf course which is about 100 yards away. Last year that even scared me because I had no warning it was going to happen. That one makes my place shake.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683635484532947257.post-11172692604732019282008-07-07T11:21:00.000-05:002008-07-07T11:21:00.000-05:00It was nice to hear things were better in your nei...It was nice to hear things were better in your neighborhood.
