The last person in the line to hear the story then gets to tell everybody what they just heard. And then the printed paragraph is read aloud for all to hear.

The results are really astonishing, humorous and entertaining.
Usually there is only a vague resemblance to the correlation.

We all say what we think we heard. Doesn't mean we are wrong intentionally. We are just sometimes.....not correct.

Then consider the event of this thread. Hearsay....interpretation...hearsay of the interpretation and the snow ball rolls merrily along....eh?

Some facts though have come to light. The sports pools do need quite a beef up in security. My family member has been the only person at the Laurel Manor sports pools on some Sunday afternoons. She never had her Villages I.D. checked as no one was around to do it.

It sounds like at least the instructors in exercise class, or at least one of them, are trying to do something positive to improve the security at the sports pools.
