HAVE A LAUGH

This is a gem. From one of your neighbors. How many golfers are there in this Community. Enjoy it.


At dawn the telephone rings,
"Hello, Señor Roy? This is Ernesto, the caretaker at your country house."
"Ah yes, Ernesto. What can I do for you? Is there a problem?"
"Um, I am just calling to advise you, Señor Roy, that your parrot, he is dead".
"My parrot? Dead? The one that won the International competition?"
"Si, Señor, that's the one."
"Damn! That's a pity! I spent a small fortune on that bird. What did he die from?"
"From eating the rotten meat, Señor Roy."
"Rotten meat? Who the hell fed him rotten meat?"
"Nobody, Señor. He ate the meat of the dead horse."
"Dead horse? What dead horse?"
"The thoroughbred, Señor Roy."
"My prize thoroughbred is dead?"
"Yes, Señor Roy, he died from all that work pulling the water cart."
"Are you insane? What water cart?"
"The one we used to put out the fire, Señor."
"Good Lord! What fire are you talking about, man?"
"The one at your house, Señor! A candle fell and the curtains caught on fire."
"What the hell? Are you saying that my mansion is destroyed because of a candle?!"
"Yes, Señor Roy."
"But there's electricity at the house! What was the candle for?"
"For the funeral, Señor Roy."
"WHAT BLOODY FUNERAL??!!"
"Your wife's, Señor Roy. She showed up very late one night and I thought she was a thief, so I hit her with your new Ping G20 204g titanium head golf club with the TFC 149D graphite shaft."
SILENCE...........
LONG SILENCE.........
VERY LONG SILENCE…………
"Ernesto, if you broke that driver, you're in deep trouble."

BADGE SHOW AND DISNEY

The "Trusty Neighbor" has control again of the old keyboard and will again try to keep everyone up to date on what is going on in the Community.

So far no shots have been heard and that is good. A revolution was brewing, but most of the shots have been kept to verbal and written volleys. Erika made some noise and our Bosses left Town.

Our owners naturally had something to do and our Gone Again ! Anyone recall that song.

"They" will be attending a Law Enforcement Show in Orlando, then visiting the Mouse.

ERIKA GONE, LAKES LOOK GOOD

Erika has dried up. Well, that is not the correct word, but the "storm" is over. We survived it without any problems.

We got some heavy rain, and may get some more tonight but nothing like what was feared. Now we have to keep an eye open for a Tornado, but we will do OK.

As Erika goes another storm follows. His name is FRED. It Might be a good idea to watch him, and enjoy looking at our lakes that are filled.

WHAT IS ALL THAT NOISE

The other night our camera guy was out to get mail and what did he see?

Well, the lights were on, and the sound of work was in the air. On closer examination it proved to be PAC workers putting some finishing touches on the walls.

It was a good thing that the camera was in the car and a couple pictures could be clicked. Check them out below. There here for you. Also you should look for the announcement for a Grand Opening.

And by the way the mail contained the usual Bills and Garbage.
