Default Is Lake Sumter Landing flooded?

I just noticed the new banner atop the TOTV forum. With the recent water main break that flooded UCLA and our need to worry about everything all the time... I am now afraid to go to LSL with my golf cart as clearly the waters have risen and boats are encroaching onto what used to be dry roads. I don't know whether to blame global warming, Muslims, Obama, or the NSA but clearly the Morse family or one of their subsidiary tentacles has to be involved. Right?

I had not noticed the new banner. Funny.

Maybe the Morse's just tossed too much Tea into the lake?

If some of you didn't "get" it, Bluash is talking about the picture at the top of this page which is really a composite of three, but not so skillfully done.

The rest is just pot stirring.

You do not get the banner if you use the default style TOTV screens.

If you use the default style screens (blue), go to the bottom of your screen and click on TalkOfTheVillages on the left hand side.

Not a big deal to me.

Beware of false knowledge, it is more dangerous than ignorance.

HaHa very funny and kinda true. I blame Al Gore for global warming-- be careful out there

For those that are new to this site, there is no flooding in LSL.

Just some pot stirring, or an ill attempt at humor!

Everything is wonderful in TV.

I usually use tapatalk to access the TOTV site which does not have graphics. But I had to see this pot stirred ill attempt at humor. I had to laugh; someone from Sharknado must have done the photoshopping. Thanks to the OP for injecting some fun into a site that sometimes gets a little too serious.
