Point of order - part deux!
 
You all know my other beefs (Sumter not Sumpter for example)

I have one more forum shorthand note for newbies: We like to use the abbreviation TV for THE VILLAGES. It is not TV's. The 's' is already in the word - don't add another one:) And don't lowercase it. That would mean television.

Guess I'm just grumpy with this new round of rain!!!

tv
 
Sometimes I get bored watching tv so I go OL and read TOTV. I wonder if I will watch tv when I get to TV. Do TV people watch tv alot. Sometimes I see TV on tv. Fox channel has TV on their network.

Just practicing. Bill O'Reilly is not on tv tonite so I got bored. and thought I would see what the TV people are up to.

TV is on tv most on the golf channel I think. I always wonder if they were real TV people in those advs. or just actors?
