Thanks, Graciegirl. You do some very good work for the Villages and TOTV as well.

I am very glad that my parents chose the Villages after their grandkids moved back to Rohnert Park, CA or that vicinity. They graduated from high school so they are somewhere else now.

Just picked up a book from the Pinellas Park Sumter County Library so I could send some drawings of dinosaurs to my just turned six great nephew.

I would expect that many librarians are aware NOW of my efforts or they will be very soon especially with the help I have had from people I have been writing through Facebook for the past few years and showing documents about my work.

Graciegirl knows what and who I am talking about. And when someone labels their opinion the "truth" people should dig deeper. Maybe there is another agenda going on with some of these posters. I have no idea who these people are.

It is the spin they put on things that shows their real feelings towards various posters.

I did have an incredibly nasty cybersmearer/cyberstalker on Findlaw for years so I recognize when someone seems to have some kind of personal grudge against another poster but sometimes it is something else entirely like someone with a dog in the fight.

And both parties call one another haters not just the liberals.

Just saw the Clint Eastwood movie Sully at the Barnstorm Theater this afternoon. Very true to life telling of someone who does good and the haters that try to take him down in some way usually for their own selfish interests or shortcomings of some kind of another.

And watch the movie very carefully as I have been doing since the movie Outbreak as well as Eastwood's own Blood Work.

There are a lot of comments that are directed to another user.

If this continues, the thread will be closed also due to personal attacks.

Well, I know I came here to golf, as did my wife. I've been compared to Tom Selleck so I can't go to the postal station anymore without Ms. kcrazorbackfan accompanying me.

Actually I know I man that looks quite a bit like one of those mustachioed macho men but cannot seem to think of that actor's name right now.

The Shadow Riders (TV Movie 1982) - IMDb

Now I remember-- Sam Elliot.

I remember at the University of Minnesota some student in my dorm showed me a picture of a certain Russian Czar and he was a spitting image of me. I really got razzed about that.

I was once mistaken in a checkout queue by quite a few people for Rodney Dangerfield.
Rushed home and Googled this 'Star' I looked so much like.
........and never felt so insulted in all my life.

In the end Rodney Dangerfield got a lot of respect. Rodney Dangerfield

Default Amber our square cocker spaniel in Rohnert Park @ 1991.

This is Amber who some said looked like a little bear when walking around the golf course in Rohnert Park, CA near what was the Red Lion Inn back in the 1990s. Our house was about 300 feet from the hotel and bordered the golf course. Balls would hit the house a few times a month. My former girlfriend Jennifer dumped Amber on my head when we were both visiting from the University of Minnesota in 1990. She was a 3rd Year Law Student and I was working in the Law Library for M. Kathleen Price as the Library Director at the U of MN. She became the Law Librarian of Congress shortly after that.

Amber landed on my head because I was sleeping on the couch while Jennifer was visiting my parents with me. She did get to see a lot of Northern California. She had been too busy with her debate team in college to really get out at see stuff when she had previously been there.

She was/is also the daughter of a Wisconsin arms developer and rather successful theater actress. Jennifer is a married lawyer in the Midwest now. I really have not kept in contact with Jennifer but do Google her every once in a while.

Amber would have liked to have met more movie stars from the movie production companies who were staying at the Red Lion Inn and who had their trailers parked there for movies being made in the early 1990s in Northern CA. We never met any big stars just people who had time to walk around the golf course and talk to some of the locals and pet their dogs.

Oh, by the way, check out some of the Ryan Reynolds movies of late. Now that is one cool dude. Or, even his wife's The Shallows.
The Shallows (2016) - Rotten Tomatoes


Ryan Reynolds - Rotten Tomatoes

Really looking forward to next summer's The Hitman's Bodyguard. The Hitman's Bodyguard (2017) - Rotten Tomatoes
