Then it happened AGAIN! A nosy customer looked over our shoulders and stated. "Ohhhh your leaving NY just to go to Florida. God's waiting Room!"

Does this make any one of you guys upset like it gets to me!

What the Heck I said. Can you please explain the difference of waiting to die in NY vs Florida. Your still going to die some day. Gosh I'm tired of hearing this from ignorant people. Your thoughts?
Some people just think it is hilarious to refer to Florida as "God's Waiting Room ." That "joke" has cobwebs on it. Everyone has to spend their golden years somewhere. I'd rather do it here in the sunshine then in New York!
