THANKS! Have a great day knowing you just helped a very deserving girl get a lot closer to winning money to put towards her education.

Years ago, my shop used to be in biggest aircraft hangar at local municipal airport. The hangar got fenced off from the airport in a land dispute with the city, and essentially became worthless. I had a maintenance bay off to the side of it - with full use of hangar space included. I'll never...

Thanks a bunch! Broke father of two boys & 1 girl here - all three in college being supported by me. $250 isn't much in the face of that, but with books averaging $400 a semester - it sure helps. I long ago forgot what discretionary income spending meant. Again, THANKS!!!

Friday bump... 2 days left... c'mon y'all - help a brutha help his baby girl win this contest. We're in a battle with 2 others that just one more surge like we had after I first posted this here will put us over the top. Believe me, if ya could meet Kait in person, you'd vote for her. She grew...

Bump for the evening crowd. She's only half a star out of 1st place in one of the categories! Every new vote helps immensely in the final 3 days of the contest. THANKS to all who have voted and will vote!

That's really cool - captured the skater culture really well. I wanna get a Smart car and have it wrapped to look like an insect.

Much obliged. Every vote counts at this point with just three days left. I resurrected this thread for anyone who hadn't seen it. Again, THANKS!!!

Well, we have just three more days until this contest ends. Due to the surge previously generated by Signs101, my daughter spent a week in first place to win the $250 she could use for schooling. A couple of the other contestants obviously generated their own surge as my daughter is currently in...

I don't see it. It is still okay in America (though not for much longer maybe) to question our government's involvement in the middle east. At the same time, as a true patriot, support our involvement. No conflict at all.

But it makes for such enjoyable reading! The people who survive it and stick around stand the best chance of advancing themselves. For most newbie posts of their layouts, I have to restrain myself from saying "that looks like fifty cents worth of dog shit"... the quote from the first master sign...

Oh for those good old days... when skill was the only thing that could carry you!

I just read this thread and have never been so thirsty before for a glass of whiskey at 1 in the afternoon... maybe I can cut out early today.

No truer words were ever spoken.

I have a brother-in-law who is a full blood Kiowa Indian. He's at our house every Thanksgiving - funny, he never mentions anything about what you said.

Our receptionist asked me "who died?"

I almost can't see to type. Very touching... reminds me of my nephew who is a Marine and leaves next week on his 3rd deployment to Afghanistan... leaving behind his 9 month old son and wife. I don't know if I could've done it when my kids were young. Thanks for posting this.

Dang it! I hate when you come back with an explanation that makes total sense and overrides my emotional response!

exactly!

You're kidding, right? This is no time to be self effacing. Your designs ROCK!

I too started out in the days of handlettering before computers. I was fortunate enough in my persistence and hero worship of sign painters to get to be trained by three of the best. Back then, sweeping the floor was considered an integral part of your training. Often, the most time spent with a...
