STD's running rampant in retirement community - The Villages
retirement community in Florida.

At http://www.local6.com/news/9283707/detail.html

The residents are, for the most part, affluent republicans. Viagra and no fear of pregnancy seems to be the reason for the spike in STD's.

3. Them old timers live in SIN!
SIN! I TELL YOU, SIN!

It's funny how when I hear this story I remember my uptight Republican grandparents commenting on how the reason gay people had AIDS was because of that "decadent lifestyle" they lived. Hmm, how things change huh?

7. She's seeing more cases than she saw in Miami
Wow, that's a randy bunch. Grandpaw needs to learn about wrapping that weiner and securing it with Poligrip.

9. Reminds me of an article I read a few years back
Saying that despite syphillis and ghonorhea dropping to near extinct levels across the United States, rates were skyrocketing in the Baltimore area.

I sent a letter to the Baltimore son asking if it just a coincidence that one Arthur Modell (Traitor who moved the Browns there) and one Albert Belle (volitile, insane, crybaby asshole Indian outfielder) had recently located to Baltimore.

11. Ha ha!! My Pain-in the-Ass Sister-in-Law
just bought a condo there. She is always lecturing us on stuff. I guess we can give here a little lecture now before she moves down there! She sometimes claims to be a liberal but her friends and ideology are always hard right. So those people are fooling around instead of playing shuffleboard, eh? This proves the perils of living around white GOP types. I did the demographics on the villages and it is 1% African-American so it's all those Swedes and Irish etc. that are "getting it on."

13. I suspect that women are force feeding men Viagra.
This is bad for men if they do not get an OK from their Doctor that they're up to it. One woman that I know gets Viagra in Mexico with a on the spot precription. What a way to go.

15. It's really telling
that rightwing fundies have finally decloaked their opposition to ordinary contraceptives and uterine health vaccinations, backing pharmacists and hospitals who won't dispense them for religious reasons, throwing up roadblocks to FDA approval, yet...

I've yet to hear a thing from those yokels about weiner pills. Not a peep.

and they won't say another word about morality unless it's against gays.

26. Hey, man, I'm up in the six-0's. A lot of us look just fine.
And as to a sex drive, it's Use IT or Lose IT. So there.

19. I work at a shipping place in Florida, and I send packages to that area
all the time... ironically, when I'm sorting packages, the packages to that huge retirement community are all sent on the grey conveyor belt. :) In fact, most of the areas that are all old people are sent on either the grey or white belt... go figure... :)

22. what does that mean?
The grey or white conveyor belt? That the packages are of a certain weight or shape?

23. No, it's where they're going.
Each conveyor belt goes to a different section of the building, and from there, each section has trucks that go to different places.
