Are golf problems, market value, carts, seating at bars, lawn care that important to everyone? Have any of us had to stand in line for hours for food handouts? Make a choice between medicine and food? I would bet that 90% of the world's population would gladly take our places. Let's be thankful for what we have and not make "things" and $$$$ our main focus. If you would like to help someone perhaps you could donate part of that (probably not needed) stimulus check to a foodshelf.
Let's step back and show some appreciation for our good fortune!!!

This is the best post I have read on TOTV in a long time. You are right on. Too many people who think they are experts in every area are too willing to tell us what is wrong with everything in TV. Get a life. Yes, it is nice to be able to live in a nice community, with my wife of 58 years, and enjoy a comfortable life. We got to this point with lots of hard work our whole life. We lived through WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Polio, severe hurricanes on LI, viruses and other tragedies. It was not easy and we feel very badly for all those who lost their jobs or incomes, including some of our family. AMEN.
