Ticked off! @alligator protection

-

Why are signs still posted on I-4 that share which exit “Holy Land Experience” to take? The place closed over two years ago.

I am ticked off because I do not understand why alligators are so protected here in Florida. What benefits do alligators bring to the ambiance and society in general? They are really a nuisance wherever they are, and they are everywhere. One just killed an 85-year-old lady in Fort Pierce. After killing the lady then they take the alligator out. But not before. For sure the neighbors were alarmed for a long time with that big alligator in their lake.

Why is it so difficult in Orlando to get to talk to a representa­tive from the doctor’s office? All you get is a recording, telling you that they will be in contact within 72 hours. Really? That’s why the ER is always packed. Very sad.

I am irritated and annoyed by that flooring contractor commercial where the barber shop quartet-like music does not match or coincide with the modern dancers at all! It was difficult to figure out what they were advertisin­g!

I am ticked off that when I try to buy some pound cake, donuts, brownies or other pastry they are covered in icing! Not everyone wants their dessert or treat extra sweet! Why is it so difficult to make some with icing and some without for those of us who do not need everything smothered in icing?

I am ticked off with the repaving job in Winter Park on Lakewood, Trismen, Seymour, and Detmar. What a lousy job. The asphalt is uneven, there are gaps between the asphalt where you can see the old asphalt that wasn’t paved over, and there are rough spots. Whoever did this job should be ashamed of themselves. Fix it!

The flip side

I so appreciate my neighbor walking over to bring mis-delivered mail! It was important insurance paperwork. Thanks to the good people in this world!
