TEN THINGS TO DO IN THE VILLAGE

1. YOU CAN COUNT THE NUMBER OF RIGHT-WING, REPUBLICAN, EVANGELICAL CHRISTIANS. THIS WOULD TAKE UP QUITE A BIT OF YOUR TIME.
2. COUNTING THE PERSONS WHO VOTED FOR TRUMP WILL BE EASY. PRETTY MUCH THE SAME PEOPLE IN NUMBER 1. WITH A FEW THOUSAND MILITARY PEOPLE ADDED ON.
3. YOU CAN GO TO EAT. USUALLY DURING THE "EARLY BIRD" SPECIALS, ALTHOUGH IT CAN BE BUSY.  PEOPLE ARE STILL AWAKE.
4. DRIVING IS A CHALLENGE. BETWEEN THE ROADS, GOING UP AND DOWN AND AROUND; THERE ARE THE DRIVERS. OLD, OLDER, AND PARTIALLY BLIND. 
5. PLAYING GOLF IS A FAVORITE PASTIME. WE HAVE 8 COURSES, ALL OF WHICH LOSE MONEY. THE COURSES ARE NICE, AND TROON MANAGES THEM. WE PAY THEM TO DO SO, ALTHOUGH THE POA WILL NOT TELL US WHAT WE PAY THEM. THEY DID, HOWEVER, GIVE US AN AWARD. YOU CAN HARDLY BLAME THEM. WE ARE THEIR BEST COSTUMER, WHATEVER WE PAY THEM. IT'S A SECRET.
6. WE HAVE ALL SORTS OF CLUBS YOU CAN JOIN. WE HAVE CLUBS TO TEACH YOU HOW TO START CLUBS. WE HAVE A CHEER-LEADING CLUB FOR THE POA. THEY RAH--RAH ALL OF THEIR DECISIONS, NO MATTER HOW STUPID. 
7. WE HAVE A LOT OF NICE TRAILS. NONE OF THEM LEAD TO ANYWHERE, BUT STILL, THEY ARE NICE. 
8. I LIKE READING THE VILLAGE VOICE. I'M NOT SURE, BUT I THINK IT IS A POA PUBLICITY STUNT, OR A MILITARY STORY-BOOK, OR A RELIGIOUS JOURNAL. WHATEVER. IT'S PRETTY PATHETIC.
9. FISHING IS A NICE PASTIME. WE HAVE LIKE NINE LAKES, SOME OF WHICH HAVE FISH IN THEM. 
10. AND LAST, BUT NOT LEAST, YOU CAN COUNT THE NUMBER OF SNAKES YOU SEE. I'M UP TO 10 SO FAR THIS SUMMER. I DON'T MIND SNAKES. THEY ARE, GENERALLY SPEAKING, MORE INTELLIGENT THAN HUMANS. YOU LEAVE THEM ALONE, THEY LEAVE YOU ALONE. THEY PRACTICE NO RELIGION, HAVE NO ALLEGIANCE TO POLITICAL PARTIES, AND DO NOT SEEM TO BE RACIST. AND THEY WON'T BITE JUST ANYONE, UNLIKE MOST HUMANS.
