Throwing out cigarette butts is specially bad this time of year, when we have no rain and everything is DRY.

That is a great thing to do, very neighborly.

Our residents are no angels in regard to litter. Residents tend to drive golf carts, not commercial people, and they tend to get drunk and drive those golf carts badly.

I’m always stopping and picking up garbage trails. Or elsewhere. I hate garbage.

None of them care about anything but themselves.

That's where the Police come in to play. I wonder, do they EVER give out tickets when they see someone throw a cigarette but or beer can onto a street or sidewalk?

I often see/smell guys in golf carts smoking stinky cigars or cigarettes. I suspect their spouses don't allow them to smoke at home, so they go "on-the'road" to imbibe. Chickens!

That's one big + for the new ALDI'S when they open. Want a cart?, 25Cents please. It will be refunded when you return the cart.

Win-Win for sure.

If you watch golf cart on MMPs after leaving squares after or much after happy hours, you can tell it is much higher than .01.
Yes, legally drunk; the same penalties as driving a car and charged with the same crimes if you kill or hurt someone - and wrongful death lawsuits.

I always honk. Yes, YOU lowlife. (again washed down the sewers for eternity)

My all-time favorite is sitting behind someone at a light and they open their door and pour out whatever is in their cup, like I want to drive through your old coffee or energy drink...
