Yeah. I'll get bored with it in a week or so. But for the moment I get a kick out of it.

FLA all the way......

So far it's 4 votes for Germany (one of them is mine, which doesn't count and should NOT sway your vote) and 13 for Florida.

I'll post the answer in about an hour.

And the answer is: FLORIDA


This didn't turn out to be so hard because you guys weren't thinking I'd try to fool you. Random shootings simply scream "Florida," but I thought maybe more guys would think it was too easy and go with Germany.

Good job to the 13 votes for FLA, the land of the crazy gunmen!

TAMPA, Fla. - A 44-year-old woman escaped serious injury from a gunshot Sunday thanks to her seat belt and a thick bra strap, authorities said.

Robin Key, 44, of Riverview, Fla., was shot through the windshield of the car she was riding in Sunday. She said she felt a searing pain in her shoulder.

Hillsborough County sheriff's deputies said a .38-caliber bullet smashed through the windshield then bounced off Key's shoulder — thanks to a seat belt and a thick bra strap.

The copper-jacketed slug landed in her lap.

"It's a big bullet, but you had all those forces acting against it," Hillsborough sheriff's spokesman J.D. Callaway told the St. Petersburg Times. "It's very rare that something like that occurs. She's very lucky. You know, we're just glad she came out OK."

Key said she didn't know why anyone would shoot her. Sheriff's deputies later arrested two men in connection with the shooting several hours later.

The Robin part made it too easy. No one is named Robin in Germany. At lunch today I saw a picture of the lady and the seatbelt in the local paper.

In my post I almost said 'state' instead of 'place'. I had dragged my mouse down to the Submit button and almost sent it.
