Default Trouble in Lower Paradise

One day God was looking down at earth and saw all of the rascally retiree behavior in The Villages.

So He called His angels and sent one to earth to investigate.

When the angel returned, he told God,”Yes, it is bad in The Villages; 95% of retirees are misbehaving and only 5% are not.”

God thought for a moment and said, “Maybe I had better send down a second angel to get another opinion.”

So God called another angel and sent her to earth to investigate.

When the angel returned, she went to God and said, “Yes, it is true. The earth is in decline; in The Villages 95% of retirees are misbehaving, but 5% are being good.”

God was not pleased at this news.

So He decided to do something Himself and e-mail the 5% who were good, because He wanted to encourage them, and give them a little something to help them keep going. Do you know what the e-mail said?

Okay, I was just wondering, because I didn't get one either.

I am not at liberty to disclose the details of the letter, but it did make mention the pavilion at Lake Sumter and utility boxes.

I helped draft the email and noticed you weren't on the list. What's up with that?
