That was a hardy har har. :) So, the pot will continue to grow unless divided by 44 and then 50? :icon_wink:

"Fair share," is an interesting concept. Fair is in the eye of the beholder-impossible to define.

Those people work for the villages. Part of the entertainment.

"Turbulent times." Things have always been turbulent.

It is amazing how civility has deteriorated. Yesterday, traveling on a MMP where a ramp from a tunnel comes up to merge with a nice big red stop sign, it was obvious the cart approaching it had no intention of stopping and every intention of running right through it and trying to hit me, so I hit the horn. In return, I was treated to a one finger salute from this 75+ year, 30+ pound overweight 5'6" man. We had to stop at a stop sign just a bit further up, so I asked, in fact rather politely, if he had failed to see the stop sign, to which he replied "Stick it up your....well, we all know where" It took quite a bit of restraint not to get out of my cart and demonstrate his own suggestion with his own 7 iron on him:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Which is why I stayed in my cart. Besides, he made it clear that he wasn't worth it.

Messy operation and no anesthesiologist to help subdue, I mean "relax" the screaming pig, patient. Not to mention, the wait for his insurance to pay up (if he is covered for rectal golf club insertion surgery).

I know I am much quicker today to “tell people what I think,” but I no longer consider that a good thing to do. For my own peace of mind I am trying to regain my tolerance and peacefulness. It appears to be working, but do not talk to my wife. My “new” slogans are “chill out” and “go with the flow.”
And I think you're on to something. Medical experts say 1-in-3 people 80 and above have some form of dementia, which begins years earlier. Much of this reported spousal abuse, I think, reflects dementia.

Try standing in the line at Publix for meds and listen to the complaints from both males and females. Very recently whilst waiting to cash out at Publix, the gentleman behind me said what is the matter with these people, they are retired, there is nothing for them to do or be doing. They are living in God's waiting room.
Or try the other end at the deli/meat line. Seen one lady got mad cause one thin slice over 1/4 pound. She wanted 1/4 pound exactly…

Glad you didn’t threaten with 9 iron or his golfing handicap would skyrocket. None more frightening that 9 iron smashing you SUV…. :) Or in you’re case his golf cart.

Attorney Michael Eckert, who has been hired independently to represent CDD 7, said his research has revealed that residents are being overbilled by perhaps 25 to 30 percent for their share of PWAC costs.

“It’s significant that the residents are being overbilled. The more the residents have to pay, the less the commercial districts have to pay,” Eckert said.
