OK, so I'm coming up Bailey Trail in my car when I see this thing in the car lane passing a golf cart. As I got closer I saw that the thing was a modified golf cart made to look like a jet plane (sort of) with wings that extended from the roof maybe 3 feet on each side with a makeshift jet engine under each wing! I couldn't believe my eyes! Not only was it hard to pass the thing because of the 3 foot wing extending into the car lane but the idiot had the nerve (for lack of a better word) to attract even more attention to himself by passing other carts. What a fool! I can only imagine this thing trying to go through a tunnel.
Unbelievable!
Did anybody else see this fool or was I seeing things?

I think I seen him before. I do not take much stock in people who always try to draw attention towards themselves. Maybe he didn't get enough when he was an adolescent?

Would have liked to seen that.

After all these years, traveling all over the world, I still don't thnk that "Now I've seen it all."

Hope that there is a lot more to see then something like that to make me think "Now I've seen it all."

Group, I had the pleasure of meeting him and his wife. He is a nice guy. He is a pilot that modified his golf cart to resemble a plane. I thought it was very creative when I saw it. While you may feel he is a fool, I think he is a very interesting person that I enjoyed talking to. I am sorry if you felt he was being wreckless on the road. Instead of thinking he is being dangerous why not think of it as he is trying to enjoy his life in the villages like the rest of us. While I have seen some pretty bad drivers in the Villages, I guess sooner or later we will all get older and our driving will look reckless to the next younger generation. I hope I am lucky enough to modify my golf cart and enjoy my time in the villages. I guess we are all a fool in somebodys eyes. I am sure I am by replying to this. I am just saying.

I just hope to get to TV and be able to get a golf cart. Wings or no wings.

One thing we all have to remember is, no matter what you do, someone will always want to rain on your parade. Just human nature. Ignore those folks is the best advise that I have ever been giving and that was by my long departed Grandfather.

I don't really care how nice of a guy he is. He was driving recklessly and I'm sure he would have gotten a ticket if the police had seen him. He didn't "look" reckless, he was reckless. Tell him I said he should come in for a landing. When he causes an accident you can tell the victim of his recklessness that hey, he's a nice guy. I'm sure that will make it alright.

It's an expression. Love your credentials.

Now just picture what the guy would put in his yard and on the house, if not for deed restrictions like no campaign signs in the yard (being discussed in the other thread).

GeorgeT,

Worked hard for all those.

I know you did. I have some experience in that department myself. My remark wasn't sarcastic. I really am impressed.

GeorgeT,

Didn't mean to sound sarcastic, was just stating fact, as I have had some that think they are offensive.
