Believable not

A friend has called me to find him a house in Florida.
Finding a house in Florida is like finding a straw in haystack. You don’t know where to start.
It is all straws.
– you know that Florida is either worthless or overpriced?
– No.
– Now you do. How much money do you want to lose?
– about half a million.
– how much money do you want to make on losing half a million?
– it is for me, it is not important.
– how about you buy for four hundred and make one fifty but never sell it?
– that’s what I am looking for.
– how big of a boat you plan?
– 40 feet.
– Sail or motor?
– motor.
– do you want stupid or intelligent people as neighbors.
– doesn’t matter.
– Fort Lauderdale.
– nature or nightclubs?
– both.
– Fort Lauderdale, close to the expressway on the canal. Concrete or shack?
– concrete.
– Half of town is still in foreclosure. OK. You are buying tea tomorrow.
– Sure.
(I didn’t tell him I expect UNBELIEVABLE TO HAPPEN with the economy. He will not buy that fast. He is safe.)
( I lit my Hawaiian torches now. To get into the mood of finding a dram house for a friend. That’s how I remember Florida.
My employee bought a new car.
– Do you think it will make it to Florida?
– Of course.
– I pay gas, hotels and daily salary. Do we go now?
– Why not?
– We got into his new car and drove Chicago – Key West non-stop.
Almost. We died somewhere by Loo Key. Went to sleep. Mage Key West in the morning.
Went diving, Slept another night in Key Largo. Drove back. It was a nice week-end. My first in Florida. Long time ago.
Later I had an accident with a girl with his car. Insurances were not mandatory yet.
– Listen, I will give you my car for a week, give you some  money and fix your car.
– OK.
She took my car. After a week I gave her her car back fixed and we went for a dinner. Nice, crazy girl. I knew she must have been from another, North state. She was too wild and too sweet for Chicago.
So I asked her a  question:
– How did you manage to make three thousand miles in one week?
– I went to visit my parents in Colorado and boy-friend in Wyoming.
I still paid for the dinner. My kind of a woman. A little rough on the edges but a gem.
