I also like the fact that there are essentially no mosquitoes here in ABQ either!
Oh yeah! No mosquitoes! I have never been bitten by one here. I was born and raised in Florida, and have been bitten by them darn things hundreds of times if not thousands.

Down in the south east you have to worry about a lot of nasty diseases transmitted by them. Here you don't have to worry about that. Just don't get bitten by a flea. They do carry the bubonic plague here. Luck would have it that it is easily cured by antibiotics.
