Muncle: If they tried to "tweak" the system to take everyone's personal situation into consideration, it would be chaos. It's just the price we pay for living in paradise. ;D I'm happy to pay amenities, garbage collection, taxes, etc. for twelve months, even tho I live in TV only six months a year.

I find myself single a lot of the time as Fireboy hasn't retired and is back in Canada working. I can honestly say I've never been bored or lonely. It isn't like high school where everyone has to be part of a couple or sit home alone. Sadly, as SamHass pointed out, we all know we most likely will be alone at some point; or perhaps our spouses will be. Whatever, I can't imagine there is a better place to spend our golden years.

Jersey Girl, and any other singles, you'll love living in TV! :bigthumbsup:
