billboard + wind = world spin

Well, what with all the advertisements, news coverage, debates, and all the rest, one cannot help but to know that the national Presidential election is coming up about this time next year. One of the things that always amused me about elections as a child, though, are the massive amounts of little signs put up by activists every year. Other than not really understanding their purpose (yes, I know their purpose is publicity, but do people really think a 18″x24″ sign is going to change someone’s mind?), I never really figured out where they came from. What can I say, my parents never took me to the sign store down the road…
Well, it turns out, through the marvels of the modern internet thingie, there do exist stores that sell yard signs… and bumper stickers, and real estate signs, and safety signs, and parking signs, and just about every other kind of sign you could be looking for.
Of course, with people like me, official-looking custom-made signs could be all manner of entertaining…
