Wow, I was both unmarried and maried when I went skydiving but it wasn't on Sunday or in Florida so I skipped past that one. I understand not wishing camels on highways ANYWHERE......seems mean not to let people use waterguns for celebrations though ;) And I better remember not to flirt if I go to New York, cause I pretty much flirt wherever I go.....
