Cold
When the New York bond traders heard it was cold in Florida, they thought the Floridians were just whining and sniveling; then they stepped out of the terminal . . .
Twitter Feed
Zoe and Zelda, who had recently moved from Florida to Montana, hadn’t exactly felt a warm welcome at school. While the other students smiled (sort of) when they met, the twitter feed was brutal; the locals called them “plastic,” “fake,” and “artificial” just because their sense of style was Florida, not Montana.
Snow Tires
Trudy (not pictured) had driven all the way from Florida to see Mt. Rainier and somehow imagined she could simply drive to the top and enjoy the view; after all, she had a Subaru with “symmetrical all wheel drive.” As she got closer, she began to think that she might also need snow tires.

When the new girls hit the beach for the first time in Florida for spring break, they felt like they had been surrounded by a bunch of hyenas or a pack of wolves. The concept of just relaxing or getting a tan appeared to be somewhat problematic . . .
Facing Her Fears
Kinsey, trying to take to heart her therapist’s guidance about facing her fears, especially the irrational ones, finally let hunger overcome the fear. She knew there shouldn’t be Venus Fly Traps in Northern Idaho, but then again, there shouldn’t be pythons in the Florida Everglades or alligators in the New York Sewers . . .
