When people are already gun shy about buying swamp land, the missing address is a screaming ommission

It's so exclusive, even the residents don't know where it is.

It's not far from Ocala.
I know people in that area.
Sounds like a bad ad. But from what I hear, the place is very nice.....if you're retirement age.

We just want to keep vanity posting riff-raff out of our cozy community.

Sounds like something Bill and Hill would be involved in.

Interesting you should bring this up this morning. After watching the commercial this morning, I went and looked it up on the internet. There is a map on the site showing where it is. The houses range from about $100,000 (manufactured homes) to about $350,000, from what I could tell. It looks like it is about 25 miles from Ocala.

And because of their omission of info, they've just gotten free advertising on FR reaching 1,000s of people.

Actually I've been in that area many times and have been to The Villages... it is in central Florida, not far from Leesburg, FL. It is very nice, what I'd call a pretty upscale retirement community. It is not near a dumpy or swampy area at all. You might also have seen it in the news, as President Bush had an appearance there during the last weeks of the campaign. Since you've seen the commercial so many times, it means you watch almost as much daytime TV as I do. I think the ad runs on Fox, doesn't it?
To: The Wizard
It's a retirement community. Maybe the ad was made by older people, and they just forgot to put the address in it? :~ )

You don't need to know where The Village is any more than you need to know what the soylent green is made from.
