Oh come on. An unknown source posted on the internet, this has got to be legit. The only thing that would make it more legit, is if it were an e-mail that had already been forwarded a dozen times.
LOL How funny!
Dang! Some guys have ALL the luck ! That is just ...AWESOME
Constitution Day has shown that it comes from a Larry Elder column. But nowhere in the article does Larry provide evidence that it is true.
Indeed...and I know too many people who might just use this story line in real life to protect their own signs.
Hey John O -- wanna borrow Belle?
On my signs (which I know ar likely to be lifted), I swab a concentrated scent that is used in "Big Stinky."
Big Stinky is a high volume fly trap used in and around agricultural buildings.
The substance reminds flies of their favorite munchies and once deposited on the hands of the perp, will not be washed off for a couple days.
If you see someone in your office (in Northern Virginia) with a bunch of flies buzzing around and his wife is making him sleep outside then you will know what he has been doing under the cover of darkness.
Lighten up, Francis.
ROTFLOL!
This is TOO rich!
Keeper of the lists...
do that thing you do SO well! ;o)
Hillarious

Seniors Need To Have Fun Too
WORKING PEOPLE FREQUENTLY ASK RETIRED PEOPLE WHAT THEY DO TO MAKE THEIR DAYS INTERESTING.
I WENT TO THE STORE THE OTHER DAY. I WAS ONLY IN THERE FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES.
WHEN I CAME OUT THERE WAS A CITY COP WRITING OUT A PARKING TICKET.
I WENT UP TO HIM AND SAID, "COME ON, BUDDY, HOW ABOUT GIVING A SENIOR A BREAK?"
HE IGNORED ME AND CONTINUED WRITING THE TICKET.
I CALLED HIM A NAME. HE GLARED AT ME AND STARTED WRITING ANOTHER TICKET FOR HAVING WORN TIRES.
SO I CALLED HIM A WORSE NAME. HE FINISHED THE SECOND TICKET AND PUT IT ON THE WINDSHIELD WITH THE FIRST.
THEN HE STARTED WRITING A THIRD TICKET.
THIS WENT ON FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES. THE MORE I ABUSED HIM THE MORE TICKETS HE WROTE.
I DIDN'T CARE.
MY CAR WAS PARKED AROUND THE CORNER AND THIS CAR HAD AN "ELECT JOHN KERRY" BUMPER STICKER ON IT.
I TRY TO HAVE A LITTLE FUN EACH DAY NOW THAT I'M RETIRED.
IT'S IMPORTANT AT OUR AGE.
Wouldn't that be cool if those invisible fences for dogs worked to keep a sign safe, but I'm not sure what they are all about.
I feel fortunate that we live in a neighborhood that hasn't had any of this kind of a deal, but I think there was some small to-do about either those "support our troops, bring them home" or "support our troops in Iraq". I forget which.
Surprisingly I can not find anything on Snopes.com
I saw the original thread in real time, and try to put this each place I see it.
Is larry Elders in the habit of propogating urban legends?
Ho, that is too funny, I'll have to remember that one.
Who says that "Uncle Bob's" are boring? :) From a fellow Bob;)
My neighbor in Camas (very close to Vancouver WA) is having the same problem with his Bush signs. I wonder if the Unions goons get overtime for this sort of work?
I just wish he provided some documentation to show it actually happened. Snopes is even blank on the matter. No results on various searches.
That's because Snopes can't say it's Bush's fault, yet...
