A helpful list in knowing how to talk "South Florida"
Glades = Everglades
Gator = Alligator.
Rez = Reservation
Coke = Pop. Everyone will laugh at you if you say pop.
Charlie, Wilma, Rita = Hurricanes, not people. They're on a first name basis down here.
Craker= A term identifying native Floridians. Not to be confused of course with the racial term. Umm ok.

I'm writing these all down so I can memorize them on my plane ride
