How Much Would You Pay for Concert Tickets?

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 21 Dec

I used to think it was preposterous for people to pay outrageous prices for concert tickets to see their favorite musical act. Then, Taylor Swift came around with her Eras tour and it seemed everybody was dropping their entire...

My daughter and I are avid hockey fans, and watch NHL hockey games all the time. Our favorite team is the Tampa Bay Lightning, whose home ice arena is about 2 hours away from where we live. We usually try to go see 5-6 games live...

Safe From Hurricane Milton.

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 10 Oct

Many people have been messaging me and asking if I’m okay. Just wanted to let everyone know that I am safe. Where I live in Florida was just outside of—and north of—where the hurricane made landfall. Surprisingly, we felt very...

It's Never Too Early to be Thinking About Halloween

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 5 Oct

Now that October is finally upon us, it's time for me to switch gears and start thinking about Halloween. I know...it's still 4 weeks away, but when you live in Florida and don't really have a Fall season to look forward to, you...

Safe from Hurricane Helene

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 27 Sep

I paid zero attention to this storm, as the forecast track consistently modeled the storm impacting Tallahassee directly. Big mistake. What I didn't pay attention to was the immense size of this storm, and the fact that some...

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 24 Aug

Food is always a great and fun topic on myLot. Many of you are always discussing your daily meals and commenting on the meals of others. One of the things I routinely talk about when it comes to food is bacon. I just cannot stress...

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 3 Aug

My ex wife's birthday was on Friday, and my son and daughter celebrated by treating her to a weekend at Cocoa Beach, Florida, at a rental house right on the beach. It was very thoughtful of the kids to do that, and a very nice...

New Air Fryer

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 23 Jul

I took advantage of Amazon Prime Day and got an amazing deal on a new air fryer. We had been talking about wanting to get a good one since way back at Christmas last year, and the opportunity finally presented itself. Not only was...

Inhaling Coffee

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 22 Jul

The weirdest thing happened to me this morning: I inhaled coffee. I don't mean "inhale" in the sense that I needed a cup of coffee so badly that I inhaled it to help wake me up. I literally inhaled it. I was going to take a sip...

So yesterday (Friday) at work, something awesome popped into my head and I thought to myself, "This would be something great to write about on myLot!" But then I got busy and didn't have time to write a discussion about it....

A Sense of Humor

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 22 Jun

Earlier this week, I was eating at a restaurant, and quite frankly I was a little dehydrated from being out in the Florida heat all day. So when the waitress asked me what I wanted to drink, I immediately said tequila. Just...

How to Beat the Heat

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 20 Jun

With the summer solstice upon us, the summer heat is fully entrenched. At least here in steamy, tropical Florida, where summer actually started a month or two ago (heat wise). So what a better way to beat the heat than to skip out...

Dorks at Disney World

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121715) • Gainesville, Florida 28 May

For my 55th birthday this year (did I say 55? I meant 29), my kids surprised me with a weekend at Disney World. Actually, I knew we were going to Disney World because I had to ask for time off from work, but I didn't know what...

Today was National Dill Pickle Day, and we decided at work to make a big dill out of it (see what I did there!). So we had a Pickle Fest, and people brought in just about anything they could find that was pickle related. We had...

...in my truck. It stopped blowing cold air about 5 years ago due to a freon leak in the coil. I had asked the dealership where I get my truck serviced how much it would cost to repair my A/C, and they said about $2000, most of...
