I just hope they weren't forced to take it down. The Olympics themselves are great, but the politics are a bit much. - MargyPowell River Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580698518291129041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35356005.post-27435807117010599412009-05-01T12:44:00.000-07:002009-05-01T12:44:00.000-07:00That's a real classic but so true for many.

It went up last year at the same time they announced the cost of tickets. I took the picture in January 2008 and the sign has been there each time I have passed ever since. Today they had it moved parallel with the road so it was a little harder to see as you were passing by. At the same location there are several urinals nailed to the trees. Those are hard to miss. - MargyPowell River Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580698518291129041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35356005.post-61906097118012450222009-04-30T14:47:00.000-07:002009-04-30T14:47:00.000-07:00That's a very witty sign!

Because I was there last November and didn't notice it. <br /><br />I'm staying home and watching the whole thing from my couch - that should be the best seat in the house! lolLeslie:https://www.blogger.com/profile/11964698251137788839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35356005.post-54913203316279230652009-04-30T01:40:00.000-07:002009-04-30T01:40:00.000-07:00What a fantastic sign!

It seems so easy to make one, but you have to come up with the idea first. <br />Love it!Marahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04464946195661953578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35356005.post-43001306237045937422009-04-30T01:01:00.000-07:002009-04-30T01:01:00.000-07:00Yes, it will be funny if we can't get tickets, at ...Yes, it will be funny if we can't get tickets, at least ones that we can afford. We plan to stay in Bellingham at our condo and just drive over for the day since lodging might be a bit tight. I'm sure border crossing will be crazy since there are only a few spots to get across. - MargyPowell River Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580698518291129041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35356005.post-87996409215826728202009-04-29T22:36:00.000-07:002009-04-29T22:36:00.000-07:00Hillarious! and very professionally done sign.
Ama...Hillarious! and very professionally done sign.<br />Amazing about the tix prices. It's kind of weird to be so close and still only watch it on TV. During the LA summer games, I went back to Yugoslavia to visit my grandmother. I heard the traffic was better than ever, since everyone got out of Dodge.Tashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18098034737961019226noreply@blogger.com
