These are not CDD's that were finished and now are having trouble. Buying in FLA can be risky but after you do your homework I think you come to the conclusion that I did: TV seems like a safe bet.

Will it be desirable forever? That might be another question. But I don't plan to live forever

Funny thing about the shadow's writing. It seems to be in the same style as Laureen Ritchie who used to post directly on this site. Hmmm!
Nice post Russ: Hopefully this post will remove unnecessary fear from anyone concerned about the big bad IRS.
