This weekend we will celebrate a group of individuals who believed otherwise, and because of the ideals they held , you and i are able to live in the greatest country in the world.I realize this is a little heavy for a typical post on TOTV, but not to TV's who served in our military and the rest of us who are always asking WHY !  |
KB, lighten up -- there are times when it is just not appropriate to rail about what you (and I) don't like about TV. Yes, we do lose out in many of the important decisions of this community -- it is a choice we have made by staying here. However, as time goes on and the Morse family finally totally builds out, the residents will have more of a say. The reality is that many would prefer to have the decisions made for them and it has always been that way. It was that way pre, during and post the Revolutionary War; it's that way today. For those who care, there are some alternatives -- the big one being to run for office and let your viewpoint be known.
And Vinny, congrats on the vision news. I'm sorry to hear about your wife's cataracts. Hopefully, her surgery will go well. Just be sure she uses the drops faithfully. I had a friend who recently had the surgery and is absolutely thrilled. She's in your boat now -- cheaters for reading only.
I'm so glad you're happy here, especially with some of the hesitations you had prior to moving here. May it always be so.
