the title of thisr post kinda disturbs me,you act like it is a bad thing that the std rate is down,I know at least 300 people in the villages that i speak to and have gotten to know over the years and not a single one seems like they would do that kind of stuff. i do see swingers with their loofas on the cars here and there but everyone ive met in the villages seems to be very standup people that have their stuff together. personally though from the things i read on here it seems its more like a place for whining about this or that.its sad.

Every time I see a loofah on a roof in traffic I do my best to catch up to the car. And every time I succeed when I look at the driver or passenger I think to myself, these people don't know what a loofah on the roof means in TV.

I went to a wild party in TV one night. When I walked in we had to put our golf cart key in a punch bowl. At the end of the night we all swapped golf carts.

Ok, what in the heck is a "loofah"? And why is it on the roof of you car?

It looks like the Villages is one of the lowest.

As Gracie said in Post 14 and again in Post 24, the OP was joking.

A nearby comparison is Tampa / St Pete at 731.6 per one hundred thousand. The top ten cities in the US range from 1899.2 per one hundred thousand (#1) to 1489.2 per one hundred thousand (#10). What has happened to our active lifestyle?
Dear rustyp: I do not know if you were joking or not. there is a footnote below your post indicating you edited it about an hour later due to errors in original numbers. But whether you were or were not joking the message sent by you was not funny in my view.

It was not funny because it recycles a nasty myth which in my view, and perhaps others, is not respectable of seniors, like were all crazies on blue pills.

Well I don't take blue pills:wave::D

Mleeja: i had the same two questions and a third how did that poster know what a loofah on the roof of a car meant? Now its got me wondering whether there is a secret meaning what all those other things on vehicles like teddy bears or eyelashes on headlights? Is that mechanical hand waving at me from golf carts sending a secret message? Lions and tigers and bears Should we be worried?:D

"Dear" rubicon: I do not know if you were joking or not.

It was not funny because it recycles a nasty myth which in my view, and perhaps others, is not respectable of seniors - that we seniors are senile. Everyone knows a loofah is on the car so it's handy if we need to scrub a pot in an emergency. As for that mechanical hand waiving at you - are you sure it was mechanical?

I've heard this myth enough...we all die of something...but for me it wont be an STD...I trust my wife...and she me..

He is asking us why we aren't out there spreading STDs and keeping up that old erroneous reporting from NINE years ago.


Go back and read it one more time. Read it and see if that isn't the gist of it. Rustyp you scoundrel. Many of us haven't taken our Blood Pressure medicine yet.
That was my impression too Gracie.

OK
So maybe the joke is on me. A while ago I was told that if you were into swinging, you put a loofah on your car antenna or roof to catch the attention of other swingers.
In Catholic grammar school, every friday some of the boys use to time which girls were in the confessional booth the longest.
I have a good imagination but that's where it ends.
