That Mike Foster guy sure does have some creative writing skills.


I can see the NH administrators point, but hey, those people have lived long enough they should reward themselves, regardless of the gag factor it gives us "younger " people. .

What really scares me is the fact that this appears to be an actual scan of a newspapers. Kind of reminds me of that one nursing home in Florida whose residents were suddenly spreading STDS throughout the whole dang home.

First: The "picture" IS a little scary.

Second: Rules of the nursing home aside. Whatever happened to "consenting adults"? Are these people prisoners or infants?

I am 56 (my Lord, I'm almost their age already)and pray I do not HAVE to reside in a similar "home" . BUT if I do, and I meet someone I would like to "get Funky" with, then that would be our business, NOT some beuracrat worried about her "home's reputation".

It sounds like these adults planned their get together for some time and took the care to not let other residents accidentally blunder into their party.

At their age, I say let them have some fun IF it harms no others.

IMHO

Prisoners!

When you enter into one of these homes, if you leave for more then a week, even though they are getting paid, you get booted out. It is their way of locking in their revenue stream to make sure it does not leave.
