I've been on TOTV almost everyday for the past ten years, I read topics that appeal to me and make comments. I usually try and make comments that are helpful from my experiences here. I just looked a the threads I commented on the past week. They are;
Background music on TV too loud

Outdoor kitchen remodel

Comcast alternative

Golf cart windshields different styles

Sheepie

Right of way

Golf lessons

How's Ken doing

Recreation centers and themes

He's back... Go Jordan Spieth

Gift card scam

No fee ATM

Where can I find out about the cost of living in TV

Is it me or does two lane roundabout don't work?

Burger King 466A
