More proof Florida is evil

Not that we needed more proof, but this is from the new york times interview with a florida novelist:

Q. Your new novel, ''Skinny Dip,'' would have us believe that every individual in the state of Florida is either a bimbo, a scam artist or a crooked politician.

A. The Florida in my novels is not as seedy as the real Florida. It's hard to stay ahead of the curve. Every time I write a scene that I think is the sickest thing I have ever dreamed up, it is surpassed by something that happens in real life.

I like Carl Hiaasen's books, Adam's views on Florida have always reminded me of them, in fact - "Skinny Dip" is on the desk next to me, and I'm about to start reading it.. I like the fact that he thinks the real Florida is worse ;)
