You best look again!!!!
Yes in my opinion... having nothing to do with geography, statistics et al.... it is a
small big town. Having lived in Florida most all my life, I have known alot of folks who lived there and while spred out, the concentration of restaurants, shopping, working and night life etc is centralized. It isnt a bad thing... it was just an observation.
We do that here on this board Sam... we observe, write our thoughts and feelings and try to be kind and considerate. I would hope you remember that you cannot hear emotion, innuendo or emphesis in chat or posting... so when you make an alarming or accusing post, peoples feelings are bound to get hurt.
And I am usually pretty much the even tempered one around here.... but you did it yesterday to me and now today.... so I needed to vent.
Thank you and lets get back to being excited for Gate as he embarks on a new phase in his life!

Guess what ..I have been there numerous of times...and Jax does have alot to offer anyone that wants to take the time to seek it. It is not really hard to find at all. Though sometimes the construction can drive you bonkers, but that can happen anywhere.
I base my feelings about Jax on many personal first hand experiences upon my travels there, as well as observations and input from family and friends that live there and where we visited and went out and about to.
Is something wrong with that? Is that different what you have done? I notice you did not mention personal first hand experience but perhaps that was just an oversight, so maybe
Well all things considered I have lived the majority of my life from the Fla Panhandle to Jax, to within an hour's drive or less from Jax. I have family members and friends and others that actually live there.
Jax is THE BIGGEST "small city" in the world. IT DOES have alot to offer to anyone that takes the time to actually get out and experience it... just like everywhere/ anywhere else.
Take a look at the date when I registered here....besides I had been a member before that. Thank you for your "education" on how "we" do things here. To think after all these years....Gee!
Not that you would know, but yes I am well aware of what is not available in the written language as opposed to what is available when face to face and besides I am NOT politically correct.
What did I accuse you of and how was I hurtful to you yesterday? The comment about you best look again about Jax? Perhaps you need to take your own advice about being aware what is not in this form of communication. I seriously doubt you would have had cause to be hurt or felt hurt , or that I was accusing you in a mean way, if we had been talking face to face.
I have big shoulders.. and you are not the first person I ever had vent on them, and won't be the last.
So now you vented. There, hands you a hankie and a "top shelf" margarita.... feel better now ??
You are most welcome.
Okies back to the topic...
