Today we received official confirmation of my wife's match in Orlando. We can now look into finding a place to live down there and all that goodness.

Thanks everyone for all the help you've given me in this thread. When I finally pull myself out from behind the moving boxes, I'll be bringing ole Undecided out to the race course.

Tad,

A little

professional

moving advice ....

1) Go buy moving boxes ... the different sizes are multiples of each other ... they stack better in the truck!!! No

Liquer

boxes they make packing the truck a

pain-in-the-_ss

2)Label boxes on the sides so you can read them when they are stacked
3) Use small boxes for

books

.... big boxes for

bedding

...

Movers

get mad when you fill a large box w/ books just because it is easier to pack .... they do value their backs!!!!
4) If you have

good

dishes and delicate items ... let the proffessionals pack them ... there are tricks to it.
5) Buy insurance!!!!
6) use a well know company w/ references
7) Inspect the truck ... clean & neat w/ pads folded = good crew .... messy truck = be careful/watchful
8) Buy lunches and tip the crew... it's well worth it in the end .... it's a sign of respect to the crew ....

I do have a little experience in this field .... mostly

commercial

thro .....

Good Luck
Harry Murphey

Thanks Harry,

This isn't our first move. I've moved no less than a dozen times so we've got experience with the boxing and stuff. I think we're going to TRY and move ourselves since the cost of hiring movers can be quite substantial.

We'll see. We have time.

Judging from that Isuzu Velocoraptor (or whatever it was called)....Yes, I'd say amateur. Don't get me wrong, that was a really cool vehicle. However, it screamed yuppie poser much louder than redneck cracker!

Welcome to FL dude....you better start showing up at some races!

Anything with locked differentials can't be called yuppy:

if it don't say Ford, Chevy, or Dodge on the front, and have about 600 square feet of rust, it's probably considered

yuppy wannabe redneck

right?

Georgia--especially up where Tad lives--understands the redneck habitude.

BUT to be fair it's not easy to compete with gator country..

I have had gator nuggets one time at gators-dockside resturant ( http://www.gatorsdockside.com/ ) ... not bad.. but just deep fried chunks of tail. But i would prefer a burger, or .. chicken

dude, that hand looks familiar! <img src="<>/smile.gif" alt="smile" title="smile" height="15" width="15" /> The

pond

(if you can call it that) where the kid lost it is minutes from my house. Swimming at dusk in a canal during mating season.... hmmm

As for rednecks, you'll be fine. Orlando isn't really part of the south anyway... you'll see....
