Disclaimer

This site is to keep both residents and visitors informed about Florence, SC. We have a lack of informative sites on our lovely city, so hopfully I can help! I am a long time resident of Florence, though not a native. I have two children and a job. I intend to remain known only as The Flossip. Nobody remains anonymous forever, everyone gets outed at some point. The thing is? It is a little more fun to be anonymous. If you figure out who I am, feel free to send me an email bragging about it… but don’t ruin the fun for everyone else. Once the cat is out of the bag the site will lose some of its zip.

Please comment and leave ideas, suggestions, and links! I need your input to make this site a success.
There are more facts about Florence on Wikipedia.

There are some ground rules here, and basically the rules all follow one simple premise: I am in charge. If you leave a comment that I don’t like? I can delete it. If I think you are a pest? I will ban your IP address. This is my world and those are my rules. If you have a problem with something? Email me at theflossipAT gmailDOTcom and we can discuss it.

The opinions expressed here are solely that: Opinion. Not only that, they are solely MY opinion. They are not the opinion of anyone that I work for or am related to. As a matter of fact, they probably disagree with me a lot of the time. Ok, they DO disagree with me a lot of the time. Bottom Line? This site is mine, all mine.

I owe a lot to the ever-fabulous Esbee at Life in Forsyth. She is the inspiration for the Flossip.
