PER CURIAM.

We conclude that the closing arguments made by defense counsel in this case do not rise to the level of those condemned in Kendall Skating Centers, Inc. v. Martin, 448 So.2d 1137 (Fla.3d DCA 1984), or those that drew Judge Barkdull's disapprobation in Metropolitan Dade County v. Dillon, 305 So.2d 36 (Fla.3d DCA 1974) (Barkdull, J., dissenting), cert. denied, 317 So.2d 442 (Fla. 1975), and, therefore, affirm the final judgment.

Affirmed.
