John - I put up a response to your roofing question, a little later
than I wanted to. Duty calls sometimes, you know. There could be some things there that help out. Didn't want you to think I blew you off. Robert |

Thanks very much. For some reason it didn't make it to my server--had to go to google groups--if you hadn't pinged me I'd have never known. Excellent. Good luck on the project! Robert |

One that says "Gay Pride" on a rainbow colored background and one that says "Gun control...I'm for it" Did you see the episode of the BBC Show "Top Gear" where they really did that in Alabama? The episode involved buying $2000 cars in Miami and driving them to New Orleans, completing challenges along the way. In one challenge, the hosts ("Presenters" on BBC G) had to write slogans on each other's vehicles to try to get each other "killed off". Little did they know how effective it would be. A pickup had "Man Love Rules", another car had "Hillary Clinton for President" and "NASCAR Sucks!", the last "Country and Western is Rubbish" and something about George Bush, driven by three British guys. After being confronted by the gas station clerk, a woman who asked them if they "Were a bunch of queers looking to get beaten in a small town", and threatened to "Call the boys to beat your asses". They ended up getting chased out of a gas station by a pickup truck loaded with armed "boys". The hosts were scared enough to quickly hide and wipe it all off before continuing on. At first I thought it was a staged theatrical setup, but we watched the scene several times, and unfortunately, it all appeared to be quite real. The episode also included some view and commentaries of Miami and Katrina-damaged New Orleans from an "dark comedy" angle not normally seen on US TV. All of it was far from flattering to America, but unfortunately, pretty close to the mark. --------------------------------------------- ** http://www.bburke.com/woodworking.html ** --------------------------------------------- |

One that says "Gay Pride" on a rainbow colored background and one that says "Gun control...I'm for it" A popular british show called "Top Gear" had something similar as one of their challenges (a southern USA special). They painted each others cars with stuff that they thought would get them in trouble with the locals. At a service station the presenters were chased by rednecks and had to quickly pull off on a highway and clean off the signage so they could give them the slip. It was a bit scarey. |
