"Ritz" is a popular cracker of the kind people eat, not related to a Florida Cracker.

I eat 'em every day, Eric. Should have caught the reference. Only problem is, when I think of a cracker in Florida I think of a cowboy cracking a whip, which is where the name came from.

I was just kidding around. So if I understand your thinking, the power line is the whip, with its end appearing to be wrapped on the tree? if so I can see that now.

"Cracker House" is also a Floridian architectural tradition, as my pal Google informs me.
(I've never been to Florida, and I don't even play one on TV.)

Yes it is, Eric. The cracker cowboys used to build them and live in them. Mostly they were smaller than this one, though.

But bigger than a Ritz cracker, I'll bet.   ;)

 Google to the rescue. Ending the minds' wanderings into edibles and lashings. :)
