To all my fellow Florida Krackers

[SmokedRam]

Better crank that heater up tonight and dress in layers....it's gonna get COLD....the warmest it is supposed to get for the next 7 days is Sunday at 70 degrees....

[Fla 66 cuda]

I have dragged out the extention cord for the cummins just so the batterys don't have to work so hard tomorrow mornin plus i'll have heat quicker.

[SmokedRam]

Our house sucks when it gets this cold...it is one of Zephyrhills historical houses as it was built in 1910...we still have the jallousy(spelling) windows in it...11 in the living room alone...they seal up like crap...

[Fla 66 cuda]

Don't feel bad i own a mobile home,hotter than a half fu--ed fox in a forest fire in the summer and colder than a witches tit in a brass bra in the winter.[ I do have central air and heat use the air but not the heat too cheap]

[SmokedRam]

If it werent for my kids I wouldnt use the heat either to be totally honest...our power bill sky rockets trying to warm the house...the interior walls are not insulated and that combined with the windows it make it hard for the heater to warm the house...we easily go from $260 a month in the Summer to $350 a month in the Winter...

[Fla 66 cuda]

Your winter bill IS my summer bill most months till it cools down at night then ac only during daytime. Can't afford heat lotsa blankets.

WHOA!!!! My mom, she has a double wide...manufactured in 1979...her power bill runs $90 in the summer....this month her bill was like $35 since her power company is a CO-OP...they return profit to the customers every December...

[Fla 66 cuda]

Highest bill i have had was 400 plus avarage is around 275-350 mo. during summer ac is only a few years old and gets regular service,we run it at 78 all summer.We don't have a choice here progress energy or nothing.

[SmokedRam]

Thats who I have...damned Progress Energy...my mom is with Withlacoochee River Electric

[Fla 66 cuda]

When i lived in Va. we had a choice i beleve.

[SmokedRam]

Yeah not here...like here in the city they are divided up in specific zones...most of the county is WREC and most of the city is Progress Energy...but like Allen Rd is all Progress, but right across the street is WREC...Dade City is mostly TECO or WREC....

[OklaHemi]

weenies... i have a gas fireplace to kick on. warms the living room and sets the mood.

[Fla 66 cuda]

I used to have a fireplace in my mobile in Va. i miss that thing very much, don't miss cuttin firewood tho.

[SmokedRam]

We have a fireplace, but the chimney is filled in...FML

[OklaHemi]

im a wanker. mine is gas. i just flip the switch and presto instant fire... just like my indian ancestors did many moons ago

[Fla 66 cuda]

Bet it looks great tho.

[SmokedRam]

Lol....I told my wife if we ever have the $$$ to have a house built I want gas EVERYTHING...water heater, stove, fireplace...whatever I can get to run off gas, I want it...

[OklaHemi]

oh yes it does.. also comes in handy in case of a power outage. i have to manually start it then but my family will not be cold

[Fla 66 cuda]

I took out every thing gas i don't like it every thing here is electric,gas is good for cooking for cooking.

[OklaHemi]

that was one of my only requirements when house shopping. gas stovetop

[SmokedRam]

I dont think I would have gas in a mobile home...growing up we always lived in mobile homes...we had one burn down...lost everything we had my freshman year of high school...literally burnt to the frame in less than 10 mins...not saying it cant happen in a house, but after living in a house the last 3 years, I never see mylsef in another mobile...

[Fla 66 cuda]

My wife is korean she is used to cooking on andaul she has mastered elec. stove she don't like gas scared of it exploding.

[SmokedRam]

I wanna be like the people on the food network...all of those people cook with gas...LOL

[Fla 66 cuda]

I'll be the people they feed. I can cook just don't like to any more.

[03 Rammer]

Im happy finally some more cold days. Yes Im one of those crazy florida boys.

[SmokedRam]

I damn near went into hibernation during that cold snap we had last year...LOL

[03 Rammer]

In fact I just washed the truck out in the cold this evening. lol Only thing I hated was how cold my hands were.

[SmokedRam]

Yeah, ummm not me...LOL...during the day it's not so bad, but at night...hell no...not going outside...

[03 Rammer]

lol, I have the windows open ac off saving money.

[SmokedRam]

I might do that tonight...we'll see...hell, I might as well, the damn windows aint keeping the cold out anyway...I'm at work now...I swear it is nearly 10 degrees cooler in the warehouse than it is outside...

[03 Rammer]

Yeah, the same thing happen in our warehouse. It doesnt help that its metal.

[SmokedRam]

yep...same here too...

[03 Rammer]

last year the 3 of us at work had personal space heaters. Really helped.

[SmokedRam]

shoot...the department manager gave us some pocket warmer things one year...those thngs are good....I'm glad that 99.5% of my time is spent in a heated office rather than out there anymore.

[03 Rammer]

yeah our warehouse has ac and heated, but they usually just turn off the ac in the winter time. All of our offices are in the warehouse. lol

[SmokedRam]

Our warehouse doesnt have jack for climate control...not even fans to circulate the air...add to the fact there are 9 forklifts driving through it 24/7 the summer can get down right nasty.

[03 Rammer]

nice, real nice. lol

[Fla 66 cuda]
