Chinese Drywall Causing Home Owner Headaches
There are now two more homes in the West that have Chinese Drywall bringing the total to seven. I am quite sure there are more homes and that the residence does not know they have it. Any home build in the year 2006 could have it.

Security Patrol
The Lake Ashton Citizen Security Patrol "CAP" will no longer use their golf carts to patrol the streets. They have come up with a old police car with the name on the door called "Assisted Poke County Sheriff Dept." The car is owned by the Sheriff Dept. Now they are high tech, they also carry a special cell phone that is connected to the Sheriff Dept. All you crooks out there watch out, your going to get caught and spend time in the slammer, CAP doesn't mess around anymore.

Christmas in Heaven
Three men all die on Christmas Day, and arrive at the pearly gates. Peter greets them and tells them that they are all evil men who SHOULD go to hell - but because it's Christmas, he'll let them into heaven if they have something representing the holiday with them. One of the guys has a Christmas ornament, and gets let in. Another guy has pine needles on his shirt, and gets let in. The third guy pulls out a pair of panties.
"How do those represent Christmas?" asks Peter.
"These are Carol's."
"How do those represent Christmas?" asks Peter.

L A Times
The L A Times is control by the developer and all monies from all the ads are going in his pocket. I counted 20 ads in the LA Times this month, January, 2010. It is now becoming a ad magazine, a money maker for the developer. Have you try to place a story in this magazine? I tried many times and Tricia Adams did not publish it. All they write about is nothing unusual is going on here at Lake Ashton. We are walking on holy land, the less you tell the residents the better. I would think they would warn the resident's about the Chinese dry wall, roads, MX, health violations with the grill, Bowling Alley problems, Ballroom carpet, violations on Bingo night, no this is no problem holy land, and you all believe it. Enjoy your coffee on Monday morning, and remember that all money from this coffee goes to the developer.

per year. Now take 30% away for state and federal tax; Joe Legal now has
$31,231.00.
Jose Illegal: $15.00 per hour x 40 hours = $600.00 per week, or
$31,200.00 per year. Jose Illegal pays no taxes. Jose Illegal now has
$31,200.00.
Joe Legal pays medical and dental insurance with limited coverage for
his family at $600.00 per month, or $7,200.00 per year. Joe Legal now

Bingo Paul
Bingo Paul finally got the message, he had no raffle or 50/50 at Mondays Night Bingo Dec 28, 2009.
150 hits today and only 4 people found the error
It looks like we have quite a few residents here who doesn't know math too well. So I don't feel too bad. Yes the total should be $57,000 for the total the HOA collected. Thanks
HOA $600 bills for residents
$600.00 made out to the Lake Ashton HOA. Ever wonder what they do with all that money? Have you ever ask? 950 homes here times 60 equals $57,000 This is still lots of loot. One can only guess the money is used to hired attorneys against the developer. We are spending money like crazy against this guy and he does not give in. Nobody cares! Money being spent getting no results, like the MX, nothing. Ronald White keeps a closed lip. I think its about time we find out where all this money is going!
Bowling Alley Cost
Why are they thinking about replacing the carpet in the ballroom of the club house when there are many other problems. What about the bowing alley. The doors are paddle locked and you can't get in. Lots of people here bought into Lake Ashton just so they can Bowl. Now they are bowling mad. What is going on with the bowling alley? Will it ever be repaired? Will the bowlers ever be able to bowl again? Lets get some answers!
You would think fixing the bowling alley would be a higher priority.

Couple hit Seminole condo association with disability discrimination lawsuit
Article Courtesy of The St. Petersburg Times
By Anne Lindberg
Published December 25, 2009
SEMINOLE — A husband and wife are suing Mayor Jimmy Johnson and the other officers in their condo association, claiming they have discriminated against the couple because of the woman's chronic lung disease.
Daniel and Laura Hommel own a second-floor condo in the Gardens 106, a 55-plus community off Park Boulevard next to Lake Seminole Park. They accuse the homeowners association board, which includes Johnson, the condominiums and the complex's insurer of violating the Fair Housing Act by requiring that the Hommels either get rid of an electric chair lift or pay extra insurance if it stays.
Mrs. Hommel, they say, cannot climb the stairs by herself and they are unable to afford the extra insurance premium — an estimated $2,700 to $3,500 a year. Mrs. Hommel is living in a nearby one-story nursing home while the issues are worked out.
The Hommels have lived in the Gardens since July 1977. When they first moved in, Mrs. Hommel was healthy and able to get around easily. Now 76, she suffers from a breathing disorder and also has trouble walking. She has been unable to climb the stairs to her home since 2004 and has used a wheelchair since 2005.
The Hommels installed an electric chair lift in the outside stairwell in 2004. The chair folds and stays locked when not being used. It remained for about a year with no complaints or incidents, the lawsuit says. But in 2005, the complex told the Hommels they would have to take the lift out because it violates the fire code.
A year later, the Hommels asked permission to reinstall the lift. He got permission from both his neighbors and the Seminole Fire Department, but did not install the lift because the homeowners board said he would have to pay the extra insurance premium.
The Hommels complained in late 2007 to the county's Office of Human Rights that they were victims of disability discrimination. A county investigation concluded the Hommels had been discriminated against and authorized the lawsuit be filed. The Hommels want to be able to install the lift without paying the extra insurance premium. They're also asking for an unspecified amount in monetary damages.

MR. PRESIDENT, I'M HEADED TO MEXICO
David M. Bresnahan
April 1, 2006
NewsWithViews.com
Dear President Bush:
I'm about to plan a little trip with my family and extended family, and I would like to ask you to assist me. I'm going to walk across the border from the U.S. into Mexico, and I need to make a few arrangements. I know you can help with this. I plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws. I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here. So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Vicente Fox, that I'm on my way over? Please let him know that I will be expecting the following:
1. Free medical care for my entire family.
2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not.
3. All government forms need to be printed in English.
4. I want my kids to be taught by English-speaking teachers.
5. Schools need to include classes on American culture and history.
6. I want my kids to see the American flag flying on the top of the flag pole at their school with the Mexican flag flying lower down.
7. Please plan to feed my kids at school for both breakfast and lunch.
8. I will need a local Mexican driver's license so I can get easy access to government services.
9. I do not plan to have any car insurance, and I won't make any effort to learn local traffic laws.
10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from Pres. Fox to leave me alone, please be sure that all police officers speak English.
11. I plan to fly the U.S. flag from my house top, put flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.
12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, and don’t enforce any labor laws or tax laws.
13. Please tell all the people in the country to be extremely nice and never say a critical word about me, or about the strain I might place on the economy. I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all the people who come to the U.S. from Mexico. I am sure that Pres. Fox won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely. However, if he gives you any trouble, just invite him to go quail hunting with your V.P. Thank you so much for your kind help.
Sincerely,
David M. Bresnahan

Bingo Paul again in the news
Bingo Paul is now understanding the Florida Law, you can't have a lottery or a 50/50 in the presents of Bingo. Paul should thank me for protecting him from the police and the slammer. But knowing Paul, I am a ass hole, This guy took one month to realize it is illegal, and for the person that picks the luckily number, that person could also be in trouble. Bingo Paul wants all on the CDD members and the CDD and the person that picks the luckily number to join him in the slammer.
There will NOT be any 50/50 or or lottery at bingo tonight. Just a honest game of Bingo. Good luck Bingo players. Usually if there a winner, you have to divide the money 2-5 ways. Those Bingo cards are mess up and you come out of it breaking even.

Social Security for Congress
2010 is an election year for 1/3 of the senate and all of the house of representatives. It would be nice if congress got the message; the voting taxpayers are in charge now.

Propose this in 2009:
START A MOVEMENT TO PLACE ALL POLITICIANS ON SOCIAL SECURITY
------------ --------- --------- ----
SOCIAL SECURITY:
(This is worth reading. It is short and to the point.)
Perhaps we are asking the wrong questions during election years.
Our Senators and Congresswomen do not pay into Social Security and, of course, they do not collect from it.
You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable for persons of their rare elevation in society. They felt they should have a special plan for themselves So, many years ago they voted in their own benefit plan.
In more recent years, no congress person has felt the need to change it. After all, it is a great plan.
For all practical purposes their plan works like this:
When they retire, they continue to draw the same pay until they die.
Except it may increase from time to time for cost of living adjustments. ....
For example, Senator Byrd and Congressman White and their wives may expect to draw $7, 800,000.00 (that's Seven Million, Eight-Hundred Thousand Dollars), with their wives drawing $275, 000..00 during the last years of their lives.
This is calculated on an average life span for each of those Dignitaries.
Younger Dignitaries who retire at an early age, will receive much more during the rest of their lives.
Their cost for this excellent plan to them is $0.00. NADA!!! ZILCH!!!
This little perk they voted for themselves is free to them. You and I pick up the tab for this plan. The funds for this fine retirement plan come directly from the General Funds;
"OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK"!
From our own Social Security Plan, which you and I pay (or have paid) into, every payday until we retire (which amount is matched by our employer), We can expect to get an average of
$1,000 per month after retirement.
Or, in other words, we would have to collect our average of $1,000 monthly benefits for 68 years and one (1) month to equal Senator Bill Bradley's benefits!
Social Security could be very good if only one small change were made.
That change would be to
Jerk the Golden Fleece Retirement Plan from under the Senators and Congressmen. . Put them into the Social Security plan with the rest of us
Then sit back.....
And see how fast they would fix it!
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe good changes will evolve.
How many people can YOU send this to?
How many people WILL you send this to ?
