Mainstreet, downtown Agness, Oregon on the Rogue River; Danger: Plane Crossing
Slightly different, and not as funny, but my wife spotted a road sign that someone had hit and bent down last week: "Yield". We thought it was funny.

Keepeth they back cast out of the freakin' flora.
What worries me is not the "Slow kids playing" it is what they grow up to become.
Slow men working.......
Now you know I have not fished in way too long...

Harold, it must be a union family.
I say, 'Down with Lady-bird Johnson!' I want more billboards! More signs, Mom & Pop businesses by the road, little shops with signs, color, character, tradition, bring back shaving creams, Hadachol, Brylcream, Dodge, Ramblers, Hudsons,,, Where has it all gone? How can I play roadside games with all the signs gone?
I'm with JC! We used to play the alphabet game as we drove..we depended heavily on road signs!
As young Mike Murgida & I were driving last Saturday, he marveled at a barn painted with "Mailpouch Tobacco". I told him many products were advertised on old barns & how much I missed the old signs. I tried explaining the old "Burma Shave" signs that dotted the countryside...Hopefully, we will see a series still displayed. Too bad, another part of American history & tradition gone by the wayside.

You can call me Mike & you can call me Mikey..Just remember that this site's about sharing!
Here in the UK a popular roadsign is "HIDDEN DIP", never seen the "HIDDEN BREAD STICKS" yet though http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/smile.gif

Born to fish, forced to work.

A friend of mine stopped in at a small convenience store on the Louisiana/Mississippi border and bought a can of "Blue Bird Imitation Vienna Sausage". Hmmmmm???
