You know those Italian cherub fountains with the cherub urinating in the fountain? I'm wondering if one of those cherubs could be converted to peeing bubbles? Now, that would make quite the statement....I'm not sure what the statement is...but, definitely a statement.

I bubbled through Lake Sumter this afternoon ... No mayhem ensued ... just thousands of iridescent little orbs floating gently through the air leaving smiles and chuckles behind.

There is no angry way to say bubbles.

Therapy is expensive. Bubbles are cheap. You choose.

It was a beautiful day in The Villages.

Good grief! As other posters have said-fall back, pull over, honk or put up your windshield.

For you who haven't blow your bubbles lately, my granddaughter plays with them and they pop on her face and head. They are mainly water. They are approved as safe for young children.

Been here 8 years full time and I'm on golf paths all the time and never saw one bubble cart on the golf path. ( Only in a parade)

By the way I haven't heard loud motorcycles in here and the only loud cars are when the cruise cars are on parade leaving the town center. And believe me-they are not teenagers driving those cars!!

Course how we got from bubbles to loud teenagers with cars and motorcycles I'll never know. Do you people live in this beautiful place with me??? Good Grief!

Never said I don't like bubbles....I love them and always had a bottle handy. My dog loved to chase the shiny orbs. My grandkids enjoyed playing with bubbles and when my daughter in law did children's entertainment, she had a small bubble machine that deposited the bubbles on the floor. It was fun and I never said the bubble machines on golf carts weren't fun.....just that they may cause eye irritation,...mostly water, but if you have a contact lens in....the bubbles could bother . I've had bubbles pop in my eyes, and it did irritate and burn my seeing orbs.
I also said, if I had a bubble machine on my cart, and even picturing that makes me smile, I would move aside to let carts pass by. Please don't assume I'm against them, far from it, I'm just offering what I would do because I do think some could be irritated by bubbles flowing towards and popping in their face.

Remember just because we enjoy something, doesn't mean everyone else does and in this thread, people are just expressing their feelings about this scenario and for some, the situation in general.

Pooh, if everyone were as reasonable and fair and SMART as you, what a great world it would be.

That is what this forum is about, stating one's opinion. I always enjoy yours.

Pooh and her friend,
Good grief again.
Reread all the posts. I was just expressing myself. Never said you didn't like bubbles.
Enough of this heavy conversation.!!!! Won't be back on tonight.
I'm going out with the boys to catch a drink and laugh about the danger of bubbles when you are following on the tail of the bubble cart.... google it!

There I stated my opinion. Good Grief!

Whoever is doing the bubbles should add calliope music.

Oh wow, you're a poet,
Many of us here, didn't know it!

Have fun with your friends,
As your elbow you bend,
Drink and enjoy,
This is not a ploy,
As nighttime draws nigh,
I will say goodbye.

Wizzing some bubbles
Wizzing some bubbles
Relieve all your troubles
And laughter - it doubles
Behind a golf cart
Is a naked Simpson - Bart!
Wizzing some bubbles
Relax - no more troubles!
The stars pose for Hubble.

Default Johnny bubbles

are times this is great therapy for folks driving around having them smile and feel good about themselves.... for the driver and those who see the bubbles,,, i am not here to cast judgement,, but it makes smile when I see my good friend johnny bubbles coming down the path! he is always grinning and making me wonder what he has been up to!! kinda like a waiterss at hooters that calls me by name,,, just makes me feel good... and her wings can sure cause my body more harm than Johnny bubbles soap can for my eyes.. I worry more about the lady that lets her dog urinate on the square or the birds that leave droppings all over... SO JOHNNY BUBBLES keep up the good work
ur good buddy the shooter!
