Sink holes, jewelry thefts, the war with Ocala and the daily threat of bombings :boom: , no longer allowing golf carts to be driven in TV :22yikes:

I'm wondering if this is the place I really want to live?? :icon_wink:

No worries angiefox10...I was reading through the threads today and they just struck me funny! I think of TV as such a wonderful place that sometimes I forget that real world issues exist there too.

Bombing practice all the time in the Ocala National Forest... pretty much as common as the train whistle!

ceejay 02-09-2012 08:16 PM

I wouldn't want to live anywhere else!!! :MOJE_whot::MOJE_whot:

Life is NEVER dull in The Villages!:faint:

Where else can you find all this excitement!!! I love it! :a040::a040:

..... and the discrimination !!!! Spanish Springs has Happy Hours 5-7, but in Lake Sumter Landing it's 5-6. What's up with that? It's time for a protest rally.

Don't worry! The bomb shelters we all build in our attics aren't that expensive! But you do have to be careful and watch out for the aliens human harvestors! Sweet dreams!


skyc6 02-09-2012 10:13 PM

Aren't you supposed to build bomb shelters down--not up! I'm not going up into the attic when yhose bombs drop!

The rally has already begun....scene from LSL.

CatskillBill 02-09-2012 10:55 PM

Good one Bogie! And no two-fers on frozen margaritas. More discrimination. I'm calling the ACLU asap.

Is that why the squares start clearing out around 8 p.m? We always thought maybe that was bedtime...now I think it must be when the aliens start to appear and the Villages residents know it so they head home only to leave us visitors in the crowd to become alien fodder!

Not to worry...as soon as Brownwood opens and that High Plains Drifter comes riding in or around all those roundabouts...he'll clean this town up! :MOJE_whot:

Didn't they sing "YMCA"?? And what dog poop issue? Could someone please elaborate?

cappyjon431 02-10-2012 07:59 AM

...don't forget--we have gators here too. Be very, very afraid.:icon_wink:

Figmo Bohica 02-10-2012 08:02 AM

Don't forget, some of us are even licensed and do carry firearms. My, Oh ,My, what a wonderful place.

2BNTV 02-10-2012 08:33 AM

Old age is not for sissies. :1rotfl:

The reserving of seats in the squares for non-existent people issue.

One fanny in seat equals reserved. :)

I'm going into the CYA mode of operation and get all coverages including a buffalo stampede coming through the house. :)

thank you for keeping them up to date on the import things.

CaptJohn 02-10-2012 11:45 AM

On more sinkholes (or change to Gracie's church)
 
You're all looking at it wrong. Here's the bright side:

If you have a sinkhole then all you have to do is pour a reinforced concrete slab over it and you instantly have:

a bomb shelter from the Ocala Wars
a poop protector from hoards of the pooper devils
a tornado shelter
a multiple hurricane shelter
a lightning and thunderstorm shelter
place to hide your jewelry and gold
easy access to depleting water supply
no need to pay for excavation
safe (for neighbors) indoor target range
burial vault
hiding place from train whistles and public noise
quiet retreat
no ugly green boxes on the lawn
save money on sinkhole insurance

and probably a few things that haven't crossed my mind yet. Any more ideas?

The seniors citizens are smarter than the youngsters. We build bomb shelters up because it is closer to heaven and easier to find our bodies if we do have a disaster.

By the way...and just in case......the next time we visit the Villages square(s) you'll be able to recognize me by my tin foil hat! :ho:

Just about the craziest thread I've seen in years! :a040:
