So between twidling my thumbs, studying for the RD exam, and doing my usual long runs, I have been doing a lot of thinking. I went for my usual 4-6 mile run yesterday and again saw another alligator in the pond and it was at that moment I though of the 10 plagues. I know it sounds crazy since Pesach is a long time from now, but I feel I needed to share this with you before April comes around and the thought was forgotten. I am totally convinced that Florida has its own 10 plagues...not the same boils, frogs, locust that the Egyptians were "smitten" with in the Haggadah..but different nuisances I see on a daily basis. So get out some Maneschewitz and a plate and lets begin reciting the 10 noticeable plagues of Florida and shedding a little sorrow for us Floridians. They are no special order. I will leave it up to you to translate into Hebrew:1. alligators
2. palmettos, roaches (whatever your word preference is)
3. humidity
4. frizzy hair (as a result of #3)
5. slow "elderly" drivers in the left lane
6. red tide
7. LOVE BUGS!!
8. poisionous snakes
9. hurricanes/3 pm rain
10. winter droughts
