AYE!Comment -
A man your swag inevitably attracts haters. I am sure you got over the jealousy and hate years ago.
Hollywood always seemed a little rough around the edges, definitely an older, slower crowd also. Best thing there is that wide beach walking/biking/skating path so close to the water, wish Sobe had that.Comment -
Never was a fan of Florida too many old people
The East Coast of Florida is a little better a lot of Italians and somewhat like New Jersey and New YorkComment -
I totally agree. I love how wide it was and how extremely close it was to the water. I was actually looking at cheaper places up that way before I decided to throw in the towel and move to more gambling and online poker friendly environments. There are definitely no beaches like these in California.Comment -

Broward and Miami-Dade counties would each open one Las Vegas style hotel casino if a bill introduced on Monday works its way through the Florida Legislature.
A new commission would oversee gambling and the state lottery, and voters would get the final say on all future gaming issues.
That's the proposal from Sen. Garrett Richter, R-Naples, chair of the Senate Committee on Gaming, which will discuss three bills next week. He emphasizes his bills are just a starting point.
The BB&T Center in Sunrise, the Hollywood Diplomat and the Fontainebleu in Miami Beachhave all signaled interest in casinos. Executives from the Las Vegas Sands and Genting Malaysia Berhad have lobbied legislators for two years to change laws so they could construct casinos in South Florida that would draw tourists.
Broward and Miami-Dade county voters paved the way for more gambling in recent years, allowing slots at eight area horse tracks, dog tracks and jai-alai frontons. Poker is legal statewide at similar pari-mutuels.
While Richter's Senate committee has been working, the Florida House has not shown much appetite to change anything.
House Speaker Will Weatherford, R-Wesley Chapel, said any House gambling bill was contingent on Gov. Rick Scott negotiating with the Seminole Tribe of Florida, which currently has exclusive rights to blackjack and other table games.
Richter's bill requiring voter approval of any gambling expansion beyond what happens this year is an idea that Weatherford originally floated.
"My personal goal is to pass a constitutional amendment that gives the power and authority of expansion back to the people," said Weatherford, a vocal gambling foe. "Whatever the least amount of expansion that would have to be done to get that, I'm willing to talk about. We don't know what that looks like yet."
Richter's bill would create the Department of Gaming Control with jurisdiction over gambling, including the state lottery. The department would regulate existing casinos and select one company in Broward and one in Miami-Dade to build a large resort that would have full casino games. Voters would need to approve in a countywide referendum.
But all his plans are just a starting point, Richter points out in a memo. Monday's meeting will not include a vote, and is likely the first of several meetings and amendments, he said.
"Rather, I will present the bills and answer questions," Richter wrote in a memo, adding they will "finally introduce bills that are well crafted and thoroughly vetted."
Richter's proposal is a package of three bills: the constitutional amendment, the destination casinos and gambling commission together, and a public-record exemptions for casinos from revealing proprietary confidential information when applying for a resort license.
The bills do not address tax rates or blackjack for pari-mutuels. The racinos argue that destination casinos would crush them without those concessions.

I had a biz close to the beach when I first moved down here.
Fuking guy would come in place like it was a museum.
Never spent a buck!
He had a condo and when his friends and family would come.he would act like he was great customer.
He always let them full up his fridge.
He would tell them i had the best Italian stuff in Florida.
When I had the the place under contract he came and pulled the same shit!
I told his friends how cheap he is and that he never spent a buck and would make you guys fill the fridge.
That looked at me like they knew how cheap he was.
Granted at the time the exchange was bad for the canadiens.
Over 130 to the dollar.
It has changed now .
I find the ones from Ontario are much better than the ones from Quebec.
