Roads and fees.

To the idiot that said subsurface groundwater ruined our roads:

In 1995, before the roads were built, the developer's own geotechnical consultant recommended that because of the high water table, subsurface drains should be installed under all of the proposed roads. These drains were never installed. This document is in the hands of the CDD attorney.

Why do you try to mislead us?

Barbara Follett

How is it that an employee of the developer/management company, Barbara Follett, has the power to rearrange the leadership of our community's financial custodian -- the CDD Board of Directors? Keep in mind, that developer/management company holds contracts (worth over one million dollars of our money) that are dependent on the decisions of that Board.
Ms. Stevens announced, on the record in the Jan 8th CDD meeting, that Barbara Follett (and her husband Bill)were the people who caused her to make a motion to remove the CDD Chairman (Mr. Salvin)midterm. The motion was seconded by Eaton and passed due to the vote of Stevens, Eaton, and Owens(an officer in that developer/management company). Stevens then nominated Jake Eaton for Chairman and the same three put him in office. Then the same three put Ms. Stevens in office as the Vice-Chair.
How is that?
Well Ms. Stevens' husband appears to be a manager for that developer/management firm. They also appear to have the ballroom reserved every Thursday night (through the services of Barbara Follett)at no charge to the Stevens. This is for square dancing lessons where every resident participating has to pay $3.00 to attend. Square dancing also appears to have non-residents involved. Free ballroom...money in the his pocket....hmmmm I would think that the people that are taken these lesions should quit. Keith is using the ballroom free at our expense and he is putting money in his pocket.
Then there is Mr Owens. Did he forget AGAIN to announce before the vote and comments that he is actually in the chain of command for Barbara Follett's employer. Isn't that a violation of State of Florida Ethics mandate.

Obama's Military Private Insurance Proposal

The following has been checked out through www.snopes.com and also www.ask.com, the story appeared in the Washington Times. Chew on this for a while.

THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS STATEMENT EVER MADE BY A PUBLIC OFFICIAL LET ALONE BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. AND THIS GUY IS OUR "COMMANDER IN CHIEF". HE IS A DISGRACE.

UNBELIEVABLE PRESIDENT???
HERE IS HIS RESPONSE WHEN HE BACKED OFF FROM HIS DECISION TO REQUIRE THE MILITARY PAY FOR THEIR WAR INJURIES.

WHAT AN EMPTY HEADED PERSON HE MUST BE....

Bad press, including major mockery of the plan by comedian Jon
Stewart, led to President Obama abandoning his proposal to require
veterans carry private health insurance to cover the estimated $540
million annual cost to the federal government of treatment for injuries
to military personnel received during their tours on active duty. The
President admitted that he was puzzled by the magnitude of the
opposition to his proposal.

"Look, it's an all volunteer force," Obama complained. "Nobody
made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It
doesn't compute.." "I thought these were people who were proud to
sacrifice for their country, "Obama continued.. "I wasn't asking for
blood, just money. With the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I'd have thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nation's deficit. I guess I underestimated the
selfishness of some of my fellow Americans."

Please pass this on to every one including every vet and their
families whom you know. How in the world did a person with this mindset become our leader? I didn't vote for him!!!

REMEMBER THIS STATEMENT... "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice?"

If this thinks he will ever get another vote from an Active Duty,
Reserve, National Guard service member or veteran of a military service
he ought to think it over.. If you or a family member is or has served
their country please pass this to them..

Please pass this to everyone.
I'm guessing that other than the 20-25 percent hardcore liberals in the
US will agree that this is just another example why this is the worst
president in American history. Remind everyone over and over how this
man thinks, while he bows to the Saudi Arabian king

Someone had to remind me, so I'm reminding you too. Don't laugh.....it is all true...
1. Kidnappers are not very interested in you.

2. In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.

3. No one expects you to run--anywhere.

4. People call at 9 PM and ask, did I wake you?

5. People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.

6 There is nothing left to learn the hard way.

7. Things you buy now won't wear out.

8. You can eat supper at 4 PM.

9. You can live without sex but not your glasses.

10. You get into heated arguments about pension plans.

11. You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.

12. You quit trying to hold your stomach in no matter who walks into the room.

13. You sing along with elevator music.

14. Your eyes won't get much worse.

15 . Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off.

16. Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the national weather service.

17. Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember them either.

18. Your supply of brain cells is finally down to manageable size.

19. You can't remember who sent you this list.

And you notice these are all in Big Print for your convenience.

Forward this to every one you can remember right now!
And Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

Elderly man lay dying in his bed.

An elderly man lay dying in his bed. While suffering the agonies of impending death, he suddenly smelled the aroma of his favorite ravioli wafting up the stairs.

He gathered his remaining strength and lifted himself from the bed. Gripping the railing with both hands, he crawled downstairs.

When he reached the bot tom of the stairs, he leaned against the door frame, gazing into the kitchen, where if not for death's agony, he would have thought himself already in heaven, for there, spread out upon waxed paper on the kitchen table were hundreds of his favorite ravioli.

Was it heaven? Or was it one final act of love from his wife of sixty years, seeing to it that he left this world a happy man?

He threw himself towards the table, landing on his knees in a crumpled posture.

His parched lips parted, the wondrous taste of the ravioli was already in his mouth.

With a trembling hand he reached up to the edge of the table, when suddenly he was smacked with a wooden spoon by his wife.

"Don't Touch!" she said. "Those are for the funeral."
