I\u2019m ticked off at the waste of money that the \u201crenovation\u201d of Conway Road had to have used. Yes, resurface the lanes, but adding center dividers and two bike lanes was definitely a waste of money. The center turn blockages keep some residents from actually being able to turn into their driveways. And trying to make a left turn without a center turn lane is difficult at best. The bike lanes are a joke. Why the massive concrete dividers when more narrow ones would have worked? The wide ones cause the traffic lanes to be narrowed.
\nI\u2019m ticked off at all the Allstate ads that are so negative. Steal candy from a kid and be happy because you saved money on insurance. Cause property damage to car owners so they can save money with Allstate. Make an idiot of yourself at a staff meeting and be excited because you saved money on insurance. I won\u2019t buy their insurance.<\/p>\n
The flip side<\/p>\n
Thanks to the City of Orlando for providing one of the best Christmas light displays, around Lake Eola. Casselberry\u2019s display around Lake Concord park comes in a close second. And they are free to enjoy.
\nThank you to the Fazoli\u2019s restaurant east of downtown Orlando for their special deals. On Mondays, they offer a large pizza for only $9.99 with eight breadsticks. Their employees are very friendly.<\/p>\n
