Rules aren't Rules??
 
"Umbrellas, signs, coolers, and sticks will not be permitted in the event area."

There was an event at Sumter Landing this morning. The Villages media had clearly indicated and repeated rules for the past few days. The above quote from the Daily Sun was part of the rules. When I watched the news reports on TV tonight I saw 'plenty' of signs and 'plenty' of sticks (mostly with flags). What is that all about?

I believe that you couldn't bring in your own signs, etc; the signs you saw were supplied by the developer or the Republican Club IMO.

JoeC1947 08-18-2012 06:28 PM

Who's cares, it's over.

NotGolfer 08-18-2012 06:44 PM

Friends went and all that you saw were supplied after the folks got inside...or as they were going inside! You better believe they had the security as they said they would.

No. I didn't see the two women at the end of the show. Why was the one woman an embarrassment? Please, don't tell me it is something I am going to see on YouTube. Please, give us the low-down.

Are you both teachers?

bkcunningham1 08-18-2012 09:22 PM

Shoot. I think I found the video, but I can't post it here. Sorry Gracie.

I did too, and if Paul and or Jean answer WHICH one was the embarassment we will know how they ...um.... feel about things don't'cha know.

Golfingnut 08-19-2012 05:44 AM

I would guess it was the one on the right. She was getting loud and had her finger in the face of the lady on the left.

babbs455 08-19-2012 06:25 AM

I just watched it. I thought we were NOT supposed to discuss this?
I still don't know why I got the warning I did when I've never read nor posted in the other forum. I did mention the mom's snowbird town in Fla. but only in answer to someone elses question.

I must have missed something, that's for sure.

TV looks beautiful in the video.

Very tactful, GracieGirl. The Villages does look good in that clip.

Lord have mercy, You mean after watching this you do not know who was embarrassing.I think if I have to explain it,you will not get it.

jblum315 08-19-2012 10:10 AM

I watched the clip and I didn't see any embarrassing woman. Maybe they cut it short.

Patty55 08-19-2012 10:20 AM

Well, hunting that clip down was a HUGE WASTE, I thought at the very least it would be two drunk women dancing with their dresses over their heads.

TV did look great, the crowd looked great, TV always looks great-that's why I think they all come here. Anyway, bet it turns up in a commercial.

Teachers will explain it to you. AND explain it to you... and explain it to you unless they are really perceptive and they know how to quickly infuse the information, but they have to understand it first themselves and understand the student.

And teachers rarely understand free enterprise and people in business rarely understand tenure and the debate goes on. None of us are exactly alike and living in this shared space requires a lot of patience.

And compassion is nice too.

But every single old fart thinks he or she is RIGHT.

P.S. Also...having a sense of humor is invaluable, no matter where you live and the person to take the least seriously is your self.


Priceless.

Doesn't Patty remind you of someone...a little?

And without the rancor?

I like that Patty. She is full of pith and vinegar.

The Village of PattyLand is soon going to start the PattyLand Heights Social Club (not to be confused with the PattyLand Social Club). The club has no discernible redeeming value, but it does involve some drinking, smoking and drawing attention to the absurdities of life.

Are we to understand that a senior lady that is independently wealthy has to depend on Medicare?:ohdear:

Who are you referring to?

Mickedamouse24 08-19-2012 02:34 PM

Can't say! But I heard it said as part of a speech made yesterday..! Don't want to be political!

Nope, we don't do political, we do dog poop, barking, old drunk ladies dancing with their dresses over their heads.
