3 buck chuck in Trader Joe's in Calif is 2 buck chuck (whatever it cost you still get a massive headache after drinking a glass of it)

If you could get a emergency appointment with your doctor ... as it now stands you must plan to get sick or injured in advance to be treated by your personal doctor who claims to have no time in his schedule for emergency treatments .... you must either go to the emergency room or urgent care(SL) ...... who will do their very best to help you( and they do good work) but they aren't your personal physician ..... and this seems to be cpmmon to the area....... I can readily understand how it might be more fun to treat people who aren't newly ill or injured, they tend to be so sloppy .............

A Christmas Tree Shop - great store that originated in Cape Cod, Mass - right now only in New England States. Great values on home wares, dishes, glasses, cookware, lawn & yard decor, all seasonal holiday decorations

A pool ;D with a high dive which means I hope one that is deeper than 5 to 6 feet.

Life would be better for all of us if the villages would provide for curbside recycling once every two weeks or so.

Very good point, Pearlsam. We had this in Palm Harbor which is an unincorporated community on the West Coast of FL near St Pete and Tampa. You would think that with all the planning that must have gone into the Villages, that they would have thought about recycling. Be good for the Villagers' grandkids too.

A recycling plan is in the works for you recyclers. Unfortuanately, the rest of us will have to haul our stuff to the curb also.

That's good. It is not optional then to collect your cans, bottles, and the like for curbside service? Wonder how they would enforce such a rule?

If you don't mind a ride, you can go to Rogers Christmas House Village 103 Saxon Avenue Brooksville FL 34601-3434

There was also a place north on Rt 75 past Ocala. It was a pretty nice place that had lot of stuff and lots of different showcases. Not sure it it is still there but I would bet it is.
