So, what about this one? If you look closely at the sign you can see how they just covered up the 0 with a 1!

Hey! Nobody ASKED you guys! He asked ME! :lol2:

Here's the real poop! This is one of thousands of signs put up (at huge expense to the people of Alaska) by their "Maverick" governor! It shows how "different" things (like physics) are up there in Alaska, and shows their independence from ANY type of government control of their lives! THIS is "change we can believe in.... Alaskyan style! WINK!" [That's not a typo.]

BTW... there is currently an investigation by the evil "main stream media" into just WHO is benefiting from the contract. MY bet is on Palin!

My FIRST thought was akin to that of Jumbo. Given the fact that it is a curve at the apex of a hill, and extensive "government funded" studies might have determined that 1 more mph could launch a vehicle over the edge, it could make sense - EXCEPT.... that IF it were such a dire situation, the sign would have been YELLOW! [Unless, of course, Palin decided that was too much government control over her sign making!]

No.... I'm pretty sure that is a product of her SINGLE accomplishment as the Maverick governor of Alaska! It's HER idea of how Alaskyans are "independent" from the rest of America, and SMARTER too! [Since they can see Russia from their HOUSE!] :hellno:

If you want to continue to live in HER "country," you will have to learn to think outside the box! I'm SURE she has many other surprises for you.

BTW... how soon before you start getting your State "welfare check" from the oil industry.... that the REST of America is paying for??

Heh heh....thanks Hobo! LOL I have the privilege this time of turning over the keyboard to my lady, Rhonda. She had the privilege (as many of us have) of enjoying a Golfhobo babble. Thus.......with that said......I joyfully turn over the keyboard to her! (I'll sign her up for her own user name later):thumbsup::lol::moon:

Rhonda speak to Golfhobo:

I'll start by explaining the speed limit sign- those are on private property at the Alyeska Marine Terminal. The oil industry (not the federal government) paid big bucks for the study that determined that by having unusual numbers for the speed limit it kept people paying attention to their speed. Got your attention didn't it ? The union sign painters surely supported it.

Now don't even start on my former governor. And that would be Governor Palin to you- not Sarah. You have to live here to call her by her first name. I'm willing to bet Sarah can out shoot, out hunt and out ride your Governor any day of the week quite simply because Alaska Girls Kick Ass!!!

As far as my welfare check- you don't have it quite right. Sarah also gave us an addtional $1,300 dollars per household (on top of the permanent fund check) to help us pay for the rising fuel prices. So what has your Governor done for you lately??? Any checks for about $3,000 to each of you?? Oh did I mention that the town I live in also gave each person a $500 fuel credit to help out this past winter? All of it comes from taxes from oil revenues paid to our state, from oil companies, to provide all you folks that live outside with Alaska North Slope Crude to refine.

So would you like us to send you a 6 pack of Alaskan Amber to *legally* consume while in the sleeper of a CMV? :moon:
Much love from the North! Rhonda

Well,
my 4th Great Grandfather is Colonel John Seward Jr, he is the uncle to William who we all know purchased Alyskea for 7.2 million and was laughed at for it. Hmmm... seems to me it turned out to be a good buy.

Hey Blepre maybe you could ask Sara to funnel some of that cash my way, seeing as how she would have never been the great maverick she is, if it had not been for my 4th great nephew's intuition into buying her homeland from those pesky russians...

Just a thought any little bit would help fund the weekend Coors Light budget...

Thanks.

I reckon if the needle on your speedometer is a hair under 30 mph, that's 29 mph?
