That's what I am trying to figure out, too, Russ, but nobody will tell me.

However, with two topics running in the same thread, it IS pretty hard to go off topic, and it does make the poll rather useless, not knowing about which prong people are answering.

Found the TOTV website from following one link to another while doing some goggle searches on the Villages. I can't remember the exact site that the link came from.

Since finding this site, it is my main connection to TV until we can move.

I googled 'forums the villages florida" and TOTV came up. Was hooked since. I don't do chat because we haven't moved yet and I don't know enough about TV to talk about. Will close April 30th and move in May 1st.

If we're talking TV, my sister-in-law mentioned seeing the sign on I-75 and I researched it on the net.

If we're talking TOTV, the Archangel Gabriel came down from heaven and told me about it in a dream. Or not, I don't remember.

Great info!!!! So glad I found it...
Have made friends and got into activities from the site.
Even tho we're only part time right now.......

(Discovered TV from commercials on Fox News Network).
Maxine is a computer maven from the Villages Computer Club (VCC) who is a big AOL fan. She sends out e-mails to members of the VCC who have questions and/or concerns about AOL. Think that's what JMAX bits are. http://www.thevillagescomputerclub.com/links.htm

I learned about TV (The Villages) in 1998 when we got The Golf Channel. That silly little song about Florida's friendliest home town not withstanding lol. Being totally obsessed with Golf it seemed like a great idea so I sent away for the video; yes I actually think I have that video tape around here somewhere.

TOTV (Talk of The Villages), I think I found it on www.lylesellsfla.com when I was looking for previously owned property at TV.
