I once saw a golf cart parked inside Publix where shopping carts are stored. Perhaps the “return carts” sign confused them.

That's how they got to buy such an expensive cart being thrifty watching their nickels and dimes

Saw a large camper on the golf cart path a couple of years ago headed toward Eisenhower Rec Center...took a lot of tree branches down!

Early every morning a woman walking her dog in her flannel night gown and slippers while holding a bag full of dog poop and smoking a cigarette. What a turn on.

The craziest thing that I saw happened about 3 years ago. I watched 2 Village maintenance workers in an open vehicle sitting in the 2 front seats and a machine in the back that sprayed out vaporized insect killer. Neither of these workers (probably illegal) had on ANY MASK, face shield, or other lung-protective device . Apparently, no supervisor cared about ANY OSHA regulations at all. Someday these 2 and others like them will be lined up awaiting health care treatments in hospitals at taxpayer expense. I thought of the US as a country and TV Land as being "pennywise and pound foolish".

Almost every day I see my neighbors lawn maintenance people smoking cigarettes and riding loud mowers and NEVER wearing any ear defenders or eye protection. And I again think of hospitals and taxpayers paying the bills. Do we in TV Land (where we are supposed to have intelligence) bear any responsibility for this "craziness"? Are we REALLY as sophisticated as we pretend to be?

My Chicago, White Sox loving, born and bred husband once said that to me about hate. Then he added, "You should save it for when you are talking about the Cubs!"

The Exorcism of Emily Rose - Wikipedia

I was the only person in this movie at Auditorium 1 at the Old Mill Playhouse which seats 300. Think this was around October of 2005 just after the Old Mill Playhouse opened.

Started seeing things out of the corner of my eyes. Crazy.

Jennifer Carpenter did a great job as Emily Rose. Jennifer Carpenter - Wikipedia

I guess you missed the day that we bought 4 adirondack rocking chairs plus side tables and a couple other things at Lowe’s. Though no problem if I open the back seat. I forgot about the roof. After a little time and some bungee cords we headed off like the Beverly Hillbillies over the Spanish Springs bridge and made it home.

Panther crossing very rare. Cougar sightings much more frequent here in TV.

I also saw that panther behind our house in the field. Also a bobcat sitting on our cement patio looking into our lanai.
