Saw a ram driving around with this plate that I’ve never seen before. Based on my research it’s not a state issued plate and is more likely a fake or “self issued” plate associated with the sovereign citizen stuff. Is it legal? Any info?

2) What month has the best deals?
3) what stores do you recommend for DIY or should I just hire a landscaper?

PS - I have zero clue what I’m doing or what to start with. I’m a homeowner for years now and never touched my front yard

AskFlorida Snakes. How bad are they really? Tampa area.

0 Upvotes

I have an incredible job offer in Tampa. I love the area, can easily afford it BUT I have an IRRATIONAL fear of snakes. I currently live where we get the occasional garden and water snake in the yard and a few rattlers just a bit south (like 5 miles). I get paralyzed with fear and it’s just not pretty. If I live in a more urban area (single family home with yard) and walk established paths like along the cause way am I relatively safe?

AskFlorida Looking for affordable month-to-month car rentals in Orlando

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!
I currently live in Orlando and don’t own a car, so I’ve been renting through Turo. I’m paying around $360 a week ($1,560/month), including insurance, and I’m hoping to find something more affordable.
I’m looking for a reliable car rental on a month-to-month basis, preferably with insurance included or available at a reasonable additional cost.
I only need the vehicle for personal transportation and commuting to work, not Uber, DoorDash, or rideshare.
Does anyone have recommendations for reputable local rental companies, long-term rental programs, or other options I might be overlooking?
I’m open to smaller local businesses as well as larger rental companies. Just looking for something reliable, reasonably priced, and without a long-term commitment.
I’d especially appreciate recommendations from anyone who’s personally rented monthly in the Orlando area.
Thanks in advance!

AskFlorida Looking for ENT / Sinus Surgeon Recommendations in Florida

0 Upvotes

I’m looking for a highly experienced sinus specialist who regularly performs image-guided endoscopic sinus surgery. I’m located in Palm Beach Gardens but willing to travel anywhere in Florida for the right surgeon.

I’m 23, a competitive boxer with asthma, and have dealt with 2–3 sinus infections annually throughout my life. However, my current infection has lasted over 60 days, unlike anything I’ve experienced before.
After three rounds of antibiotics, prednisone, nasal rinses, and an allergic reaction to my final antibiotic, I’m still unable to breathe properly through my nose, have virtually no sense of smell, and continue experiencing facial pressure. Three weeks after finishing treatment, I’m nowhere near my previous baseline.

A close family friend, a now-retired, world-renowned ENT in Philadelphia, is positive my structural obstruction requires surgery. Unfortunately, my current ENT in the Jupiter/Palm Beach Gardens area has continued pushing me off week after week with little initiative, I’m more than ready to move on.

I’m looking for a skilled surgeon who performs these procedures frequently and can evaluate me as soon as possible.

My life has essentially been on hold for two months. Being unable to train or breathe normally has taken a significant physical and mental toll.

Any recommendations from those who’ve undergone sinus surgery or work in healthcare would be greatly appreciated!

AskFlorida Out of state license plate frames

0 Upvotes

Ok, so this is a stupid question, and I know most people are going to say that no one really gives a shit, but I'm still curious to hear from people who've lived in Florida longer than I have.

How do people judge license plate frames that are clearly from out of state? I've lived in Florida for over 6 years, and I want to replace my old, sad, and woebegone license plate frame, which is your standard university alumni frame from a Midwestern university that I went to for grad school. But, I'm also originally from California (gasp I know), and honestly have more of an attachment to my California university than my Midwestern one, so I'm considering getting a license plate frame from there.

I'm pretty convinced that drivers were even more rude to me than the normal level of rude Floridian driving when I still had California plates. Doubly so in other Southern states. But of course, with a Midwestern license plate frame, drivers just think I'm some snowbird.

So, which is better? Get a license plate frame that brands me as from California, or one that just makes me look like a stupid snowbird taking over Florida? Or, should I just go full Floridian and let my license plate be naked and free, rolling down the highway until the cops catch me?

And also in general, what judgements do you make of license plates or frames from out of state? Are there specific states that you just have a visceral reaction to when you see a driver clearly from there?

AskFlorida Navigable waterways

Post image
73 Upvotes

For the most part I understand that most waterways are considered navigable and therefore open to the public to fish/boat in even if the water touches the land of local property owners. And typically in these situations, a person's property boundary ends where the water begins. I get that. But what if my property boundary includes an inlet with a very narrow (3') opening without any other means to access it?

Is this still considered navigable water?

I want to know if I can post signs that say "private Property" at the tiny little entrance to my bayou since my property boundary does include this inlet.

(See pic). I want to do this because some jerk snuck into my inlet a few nights ago in the middle of the night and stole my canoe.
