Hello Justaskjoe
A very good question and all very good answers. Yes, I have heard about some of those very singles that these fine folks have written about and I have observed them, as well. They are quite wild but one of them, a fellow named Gene, keeps them in line and, for the most part, out of trouble. There is Krazy Kathie who opens her home to every outcast in need of shelter (so I have heard) and her parties are so legendary that the Lady Lake Police Department has installed a direct line into her house; there is PGB who has been christened "Firecracker" and, upon meeting her, in no time you'll understand why!; Blondie has been here for about three weeks, now, and is on her fifth pair of dancing shoes because she has worn the soles right off them all; let's not forget JimT who, although his Giants got shellaked in the playoffs, still was a great host for his friends and foes, alike; Mr. Bob, a great guy who almost got that job on the commercials for FedEx for being the fastest talker on the face of the earth; Dianne...sorry cannot comment because I got into trouble once before for posting about her culinary skills!; there is Peazoup, too, who brings elegance and poise to these bunch of roustabouts, as well as, ensuring propriety and proper behavior (yeah, right!!); Dottie, a great water volleyball player and Karaoke singer... I just wish she wouldn't do BOTH at the same time (very distracting in the pool); Dicky - he sits back quietly and observes (be wary of him - very scary); but a wealth of information on just about any subject.
Justaskjoe, although I haven't had the pleasure of meeting Gene, from what I understand, HE is the one to be counted upon to show you direction and to keep you from harms way. I will say, though, that this bunch couldn't be a nicer or more friendlier group of Singles who are always available to help one another, support one another, and give comfort to one another. But, be prepared to laugh almost continually; and they have selected as there mantra the words of Jimmy Buffet: "If we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane".
In closing, I should advise you that there are, at least, two large Singles Clubs in The Villages, as well. Yeah, certainly no trouble fitting in here for any single person looking for friends in the same boat. Good luck and do what most of us did, already, and that is when you plan on arriving for a visit let us know and we'll meet and greet you. Phyllis and Peter, our married self-appointed chaperones to the group, may even foot the bill for a night out; but I'll have to run it by them first!
