HAVE A LAUGH

Another joke from a V.W. Neighbor


The Traffic Camera


A man was driving through town, when he saw the flash of a traffic camera.

He figured that his picture had been taken for exceeding the limit, even though he knew that he was not speeding.

Just to be sure, he went around the block and passed the same spot, driving even more slowly, but again the camera flashed.

Now he began to think that this was quite funny, so he drove even slower as he passed the area again, but the traffic camera again flashed.

He tried a fourth time with the same result..

He did this a fifth time and was now laughing when the camera flashed as he rolled past, this time at a snail's pace.

Two weeks later, he got five tickets in the mail for driving without a seat belt.


You just can't fix stupid.

NEW BUDGET TO KICK IN JAN 1

Another year and a new budget to kick in starting Jan.1, 2010. This one shows a small increase over last year.

Zero increase would have been better. One could analyze and look for compromise here and there. In the end that which has been cast is that which rules.

Ten bucks a month is manageable.

CHRISTMAS LIGHTS

MERRY CHRISTMAS to Family, Friends, and Neighbors.

The Naples community, as well as ours, is nicely decorated for the holidays. We don't have any lighting on our house, but did manage to get some other displays on the ground in the landscape area.

I like the white lights on the trees. I remember lights all over in NJ. If you like lights use the link below and enjoy some nice Christmas lighting and music. Oh Yes, MERRY CHRISTMAS !

VALENTINA CT. STREET PARTY

Saturday, Dec. 19th was the Valentina Ct Street Party. This event was at "Rick's Place" in Town Center.

There was a great turn out, and a nice blend of "full timers" as well as "snow birds." There no hesitation in getting the conversations rolling. IT was "just like old times."

There was discussion regarding our activities. For the most part people are very pleased that Valentina Ct is a very active street. It was agreed that neighbors would contact their Representatives with suggestions for future activities.

The gang also had an opportunity to check out the new management. Everyone had something off the menu, and seemed generally very pleased.

A BIG EIGHT

Eight Years old today. This little guy is aging fast. Me and my Lady can remember when he was born. I remember teaching (with help) him to swim. He is still like a fish in the Town Center pool. From one side to the other - underwater. Well Happy Birthday Cam. Have a great day.

$100 IS THE TOP WINNER AT MATTIES PLACE

The dollar amount to beat on the lottery is one hundred dollars. Matties Place advises that the top winner so far has scored that amount. Lets try to beat that number soon. Good luck everyone !

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAURA

Hey Girl, I didn't need any reminders this year to post good wishes for your birthday. Twenty-seven years old - WOW. I can't believe it, and I am good with numbers.

We all are proud of you, and hope you enjoy your special day.

FULL SPEED AHEAD

All Ahead, slow. Make that very, very slow. That was the order for the evening and the boat parade at Tin City.

Dragging that guy out of the house was not only slow, but a forecast of how the evening would go. We joined a gang of V.W. Neighbors for a night out.

After getting him seated the "Double Sunshine" blew its horn and off we went. At slow speed we looked at all the fine boats, and homes. Then the boat went out into the gulf. We let dolphin chase our wake for a while, and then enjoyed a really beautiful sunset.

When we returned the gang went to the River Walk Restaurant for a slow meal, and watched as the Boat Parade cruised by for our review.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

NO GAMES TODAY !

My experts are out on some big ship doing a cruise. That means no word from them as to tey best game to watch this week.

The Lady of the house picked the Gators last week, and did such a wonderful job there that I have to agree with her that there is: NO GAME TODAY.

PIZZA

Up North in New Jersey I once went to a fire site. My Son in Law is a Volunteer Fire Man. He takes his job very seriously.

When the alarm comes don't get in his way or the guy will run you over to get to his Truck.

Once I went to a local fire, and what did I find. The fire was out and all the volunteers were sitting on the lawn. The fans were blowing a nice breeze to cool them down. They also had plenty of cold water, and someone donated Pizza's to the men.

That is a nice way for the volunteers to feel the appreciation of their community and to increase the camaraderie among the ranks. Its' a good thing.

Last night the local pizza oven was turned on and the V.W. CERT Team got together in a similar meeting. This too was good. The team purchased their pizza's from RICK'S PLACE the new restaurant in our community. The pies were excellent.

This Lady appreciates efforts of all those volunteers that make up the CERT team. Good Holidays Guys !!!

SLIDING DOORS ARE THE WEAKEST LINK IN PROTECTING OUR HOMES

Today V.W. Resident has some time on his hands and has peaked at several reports regarding protecting our valuables.

We all know that our home is solid, but our sliding doors are almost an invitation to a burglar. It seems a pry bar and some evil determination and a "perp" is in and out with your cash and jewelry in less than two minutes. This is not new information, yet every now and then someone needs a reminder to go the extra step and secure those doors.

A couple of well versed neighbors (Our Safety Team) have told us that they will give us periodically some safety tips to share with friends and residents.

MORE BABY SITTING DUTY

I got hood winkled (I think that is the correct expression). It's like this. My old legs weren't working well, and I decided to give them a rest. Then My Lady took a call from the daughter. It seems her little ape is not feeling well, and could she watch him?

My Lady, of course, said YES. I don't think she knows how to say No.

It wasn't even 8:00 AM when the car (Not an ambulance) pulled in the driveway to drop the poor patient off for some TLC. I guess that's OK, but I shouldn't have said so. In the next minute or two My Lady tells me she is going out for lunch. That means: It's me and him. Well I believe in tough love, not TLC. He doesn't look sick anyway.

My first thought was to take him for a walk around the lake, and over the Verona Mountains. That thought told me my medicine was working.

In the end I decided to just make him lay down and rest, and I would just play with my camera. Of course my pal and I had a great day.

AUTISM BENEFIT

How much would you pay to see some high quality men parade across the floor looking to become Miss VeronWalk.

The answer is twenty dollars. Thatis what a ticket will cost to attend the Charity Show benefiting local Austism Societies.

The show is on March 27, 2010.

Tickets are being sold throughout the community by volunteers, and at Town Center.

YOUR FIRED !!!

Now my nice Lady is in trouble.

Again she volunteered to be a baby sitter for the wild child. I didn't want to get involved, but did issue the warning: "Don't let her in the Den. That made me feel safe. But that feeling did not last long. The kid did her magic act: Now you see me, now you don't. I like the "now you don't part," buy then again I am only kidding, and my Lady has not been fired.

Hope you Guys(especially up in NJ-NY) appreciate these.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

The game today that the experts told me to watch is Florida vs Alabama. They won't say who is going to win, but they say this is the best game of the year so watch it!

A Lady friend told me that since the Gators are well versed in swimming: "They will turn the water into a Crimson Tide." She said you can bet on that ! So why won't she let me watch all the games today.

DECEMBER: BIRTHDAYS AND ANNIVERSARIES

Time is going way too fast. Another month has gone by quickly, and within days the year will have flown by too.

That nice Lady I hang out with has the job of telling me the guy's that need to be remembered here. She does a pretty good job, even though she forgot my birthday last month. I didn't want to remember either.

This month there are two. One is my Lady's 'little girl'. The other is "My" buddy.
