I was driving out of Glasgow today and saw a billboard advertizing Busch Gardens. In Tampa.

Only 4200 miles away.

And you can't drive there from here, either.

Is this a record for the most distant billboard?

You mean they haven't finished that bridge <u>yet</u> ?

That's certainly the longest distance ad I've ever heard of.

I'm surprised it wasn't a "See Rock City" sign! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

And a Merry Christmas to you, too, Doc.

Have a wee Christmas dram for Santa...

I suppose they advertize the stuff there.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif
 
Oh yeah... I'm about to sojourn out to acquire some "stock" right now!
 
"Weather Geeks" here are predicting some severe storms in the next 24~36 hours... I figger I better have an ample supply to hand. Gonna need to nail the yard flamingos' feet to th' dirt, apparently. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif
 
?
 
They'll be collector's items soon. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif
 
plastic flamingos? lol
 
Yup! The LAST of the manufacturers has thrown in the towel. They'll soon be as scarce as...as... flamingo's teeth! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

EDIT: As example; when was the last time you saw an honest-to-real Brass Monkey?!?!? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
Used to be a bar here called the Brass monkey.
 
Bars don't count. I'm talkin' 'bout genuine Brass Monkeys. Like "Lawn Jockeys" holdin' lanterns... Like the soon-to-be phased out flamingoes.

GET 'EM WHILE THEY'RE HOT!!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif
 
but but but... won't they melt if they get too hot? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
 
Pink lollipops stuck all thru th' front yard... hehee.
 
then you'd be missin' the gingerbread man sprinting through... heheh
