It's nothing less than another beautiful day in The Villages. Can we all just get along and play nice?

My goal, in moving to TV, included, among other things, leaving the drama of back home and moving to an area that is conducive to a stressfree, idyllic life for my remaining years. Unrealistic? Perhaps. But the whole "feel-good", friendliest neighborhood, where everyone loves each other, while unrealistic, is not too shabby a goal for me. I for one prefer the fantasy over the reality.

And a top of the morning to you too! :ho:

I totally agree with your goal and believe it starts with learning how to just post, without always trying to get in 'personal shots' (even obliquely/in code)... at those you hate. :oops:

Expecting those attacked first not to respond/defend...is also NOTHING but pretty naive IMHO.

Besides, with our ever decreasing brain cell capacity as we age, there's less and less room...to have visitors living there. :D

Your breath of nice fresh air and guiding principle of "don't worry, be happy"...is well worth emulating.

I apologize, first of all, for posting in this thread since I have been reminded a few times, I am not welcome here, however....

YES, we can all get along on this TOTV and as an early member, it has been done in the past. Then, we were all individuals and not part of a group. Every thread that certain posters posted in did not become a soap opera and everyones opinion was respected and those opinions did not involve snide hidden barbs at others. Nothing wrong with disagreeing ever, but it is not required to be a soap opera.

Those with agendas on here make this uncomfortable....note NOT those with opinions, but agendas. So many people looking down on others is sad really.

We now get into "word wars" over how long we have been here, which resident organization is best....not opinions mind you....definitive statements about who is the best....all about winning I guess.

Anyway, sorry for posting here and will take my leave

But with enough contacts ANYTHING is possible even with next to NOTHING.

I wonder if we're expected to pay the mods a ransom to get Abby back. I'm sure we could collect a little more than NOTHING to get it done..

As repeatedly shown, not really true, but NOTHING...if not a nice thought/goal. :thumbup:
