I just finished reading
Coconut Cowboy by Tim Dorsey.
I decided to give Dorsey a try because my favorite Florida writer Carl Hiaasen does not write his books fast enough. But I learned that Tim Dorsey seems to be writing his books too fast. It was my first Tim Dorsey and might be my last.
Tim is no Carl. Serge is no Skink. And Dorsey can't begin to turn a phrase like Hiaasen can. And Dorsey's humor might be a little too noir for a sweetheart like me......But I digress........
The point of this post is that while this thread and the other one about Colony Publix have been running and I was reading
Coconut Cowboy, one of Dorsey's miscreant (though insightful) characters says, "In Florida, a lot of people need to be mad to be happy. They're just looking for a reason, any reason."
Coincidence.
