Who's with me! OTV forever!
Count us in! We will occupy Vanilla Leaf Place on January 12.

And the Occupy The Villages movement grows. Now what we need to do is move in mass on the town squares after happy hour to show our strength during the nightly entertainment. Please feel free to let your voice be heard by singing along. Dancing is optional.

Nerd? OMG, I think that's the first time I've been referred to as a nerd! Now I'm gonna have to put some white tape around the ear peice near the hinge of my eye glasses.

This also presents a problem for me. Most of my shirts don't have a chest pocket. Where ever am I gonna put a plastic pen holder? The Villages Florida

Jim, please keep this going through 2013 - I'll be joining you then. My demands include the following:

Sunny days, cool nights, wide fairways, plenty of happy hours, restaurant coupons...am I forgetting anything?

Don't expect a big turnout at a rally in TV unless there's free food.
