I'm an automobile driving instructor. Why do you ask?

I'm on the steering committee for a business that is spinning its wheels.

Okay, phew! Neither one of you is engaged in the time-honored-but-largely-illegal profession that sometimes takes place in automobiles.:eek:

Running moonshine? Naw, I gave that up when I got my last DUI.

Umm... I was thinking more like... oh, never mind.

LOL. Not to knock engineers, but after I have heard a couple of engineers at my workplace arguing about which pump manufacturer is best or which fabricator to use for the next tank we have to build, it is nice to read TOTV during my lunch time at work. And at work I only read TOTV during my lunch time (well, usually just during my lunch time) :)

As a wannabee here in the Chicago area, TOTV is my primary source of information about what is going on in The Villages. For example, I would not know that TV may be expanding into Fruitland Park unless I read TOTV. TOTV has been like my textbook for getting information about moving to and living in The Villages.

I'm continually amazed at the number of friends that I've made here in TV who have never heard of TOTV. I can't remember when I heard about TOTV but joined well before we decide to move here. I'm on here occasionally while surfing or when I want to buy or sell something.

That would definitely tire me out...

A lot of people have trouble sleeping when they get older. Some wake up early every morning due tho having done it all their lives. Some have difficulty sleeping and go to bed later and often wake up frequently at night.
Over 100,000 people live in the Villages. As has ben pointed out those of us on TOTV are a very small percentage. A few of that small percentage post late at night and in the wee hours of the morning. I'm sure that some on here cannot get out and lead active lives for one reason or another, but that is not the norm. I have some sort of activity every day. Many times two or three in a day.

I think the majority of people who move here, have projects to do around the house or just start on building their activities list.

I personally find that just being here, cuts down on the time I would spend on TOTV as I was very addicted when I was up north. It is a great place to meet wonderful new friends and to obtain much needed information.

I just you will find when you get here. LOL
