A Captain D's would be nice. Fish at a reasonable price. Nice for a casual evening out. I've written to them and surprised, I got a personalized response. They hadn't considered to come this direction.

You're right about that. It would be as successful as a tofu stand at a NASCAR track.

So if no Nordstroms, no Neiman's or Saks for sure. Then where can one obtain Coach, Longchamp, Faconnable, Hermes, Ferragamo, Tiffany's, Armani, Vuitton, Prada, Zanella, Zegna, Gucci, Judith Leiber, Rolex, Patek, Piaget, etc. products near The Villages?

After all, I need to purchase clothing as well as find gifts for my lady friends now and then.

Trader Jose's! A coffee house with acoustic music is a great idea. A restaurant that serves really healthy delicious food. A bar that plays good alternative music

If we have to have chain restaurants, how about a little upscale type of chain restaurant? How about Mesa Grill?

I'd love Macy's, I don't know why everyone acts like it's an expensive store, it's not. Coach is not expensive.

I'm being Walmarted to death. Yes, I shop online, but it's not the same.

I don't think the demographics here are as pathetic as you all like to portray them.
