BTW, L and L, it is a Ads by Google ad, but not to worry. TOTV still gets paid to run the ads.

thanks Pt
we thought the Ads by Google tag referred to what was 'below' not above

either way, no biggie. we don't have grandkids looking over the shoulder

it's the teens at our shop that see the appealing images and assume when we go to TV we're getting into things they would not associate with 'old age homes'

Everyone is right.... It's the Google ads... I kept looking for the ad everyone was talking about and then I realized, that since I'm still living in Germany, the Google ad [I get] is a German ad.

If you could see the ads I see, there would really be some controversy on TOTV ... :laugh:

Whew.... I feel better now with that solved. I thought I was missing out on something.

Ok...it's time for :wine: Prost! (Cheers! ...I promise, Tony)

For me personally, there would be little return on the dollars spent. I almost never read the display ads. The same is true of the Newspaper display ads. Must be I was programmed incorrectly. My wife, on the other hand, ...

Gee, tip one for me. In fact that sounds like a good idea here . . . right now.

Oh . . . its only 10 a.m. or so.

Then I will wait a little.

If Hubby logs in when I am away he just might start clicking on the senior dating ad.

hahaha...this is SO funny. All men look! If you have to "worry" about him and one ad, then you better stay home at all times to keep an eye on him. LOL. There are so many absolutely GORGEOUS, fit women in their mature years here in TV. You might want to consider not letting him out of the house either. He may cheat with his mind. Or, put blinders on him when you go out. Don't forget a cane for the blind. Besides regular ads, men can look for women on dating sites too. Ahhh....let the poor guy look and click. It'll keep him young and vital for YOU. And yes..take him to Hooters on your next trip somewhere. :D

The politicos running this August here in our district must be using the same kind of reasoning.

Every time I have driven by the Villages Public Library there have been rather young looking and very attractive women holding up Nugent signs. Different ones each day though. There has also been the same guy holding up a sign for a different candidate but my eyes usually stay on the Nugent pitchers even if that is only in the rear view mirror.

The Nugent competitor for your attention does wave a great deal more than than attractive gaggle of women.

That's not Ted Nugent, is it?

um... you are programmed like most of us. Hence, the sexy ads. Now there's a thought. Anyone who objects to sexy ads should do their part by clicking on all the ho hum ads. If ho hum ads worked as well, advertisers wouldn't resort to sexy ones as much.

As for me, hey Admins, where are the hunk ads? Solicit some sexy hunk ads, would ya? :jester:

It's Richard Nugent who is running for Florida's Fifth Congressional District. Not Ted Nugent.

Gee, that is a shame. I think Ted would have done a great job. Wouldn't it be a hoot if Ted moved to the villages?:beer3:

Not enough big game since they moved the buffalo.

Come on "P", you've already got my Avatar to check out. How's that for a hunk:jester:

The posters for Nugent seem to have his last name very big and his first name small.

I was looking more at the women carrying the signs rather than the signs themselves.
