Re: That picture feels like an optical illusion!
Straightforward, it's just virtual-reality.  I know the guy on that sign, the poor basstid.

Thanks for the visit.

Re: FineYoungSinger
I stole it from you before you had a chance to use it.  This is an act of pre-plagiarism and I apologize :)

Thanks for visiting this one.  I need to come up with something new, though, this one is collecting dust.

"Gasoleaning towards recession"....DAMN.  I wish I'd have come up with it.

Re: Pelagus
A new face - welcome aboard!  And I thank you for the compliment.

I am gathering all the Free Radicals to overthrow the status quo.  It's a monopoly mutiny.  Be a Pirate and not a Parrot has always been my motto, since I made it up 10 seconds ago.

Re: Azur
I'm waiting for just such an opportunity.  Need somebody to steer me in a direction.  Truck drivers... anybody.

You know anybody like that, Azur?  :-)

Cunning my friend, I was thinking of your words
Give people something to read while stuck in jams.

Then you could make ssome shorter more outrageous stickers with funny lines on. Probably get  sponsorship from the Association of Tow Truck Drivers.

Re: Azur
If I didn't steal the picture from somebody else, you could start printing the little guy out, put 'em on stickers, and make some ludicrous dough, no doubt.  Then we might be able to afford to drive :-)

Funny, I thought I commented here. Good work
Would be fun on stickers, you know to be read on the back of cars when sitting in heavy traffic

and burning too much fuel.

Re: Sam I Am
Thank you so much.  I was thinking nobody would see this.  I haven't written here in so long.  I appreciate the kind words from a fellow poet.  :)

Well said, Cunning! and most unfortunately tis so...
