However, nothing 2 strips of electrical tape can't temporarily fix!...

It's amazing........" BIG DICK" was on the road 2 years BEFORE you got censored.....Maybe he should change his name to " Big Peter"

When I had my thrill ride I would be sitting underneath a giant sign that said $5.00 and everyone would ask me "how much is it?" I gave up trying to understand.

I vaguely recall a discussion somewhere, about the benefits of having a misspelled word or two. It could easily foster a feeling of superiority in a mark, and he'd be willing to fork over the couple of bucks just to prove something. Of course, in the end, the person with the money wins.

It's been said once or twice that I foster feeling of superiority.

I used to hang a sign in the entrance that Jim Hand painted that read "Everthing's REAL, No Magic Illusions" very few Folks ever noticed "Everything" was spelled wrong...One day Flamo #1 said that it was spelled correctly because on a Bob Rawls Banner I was flying, it was spelled the same way...I didn't believe him, and he lead me down to my 2-Bodied Pig Banner and in the Bullet sure enough it said "He does everthing together"...I had the banner for 3 years and I had never noticed...

Have chatted with Jim Hand previously about mis-spelt signage
and the psychology behind deliberate examples. A gypsy show I worked on as a lad, sold foals, kid goats etc that the working stock produced but for which there was no work for. Their signs were generally of the "Four Sail" nature as they reckoned that with all of the other "For Sale" signs around theirs would stand out like dogs balls. And they were right! Harleys observation is spot-on, those who did enquire about the sale always seemed to think they were above the gypsies, all the time being too stupid to realise that they had been pulled in by a higher level of "smarts", than they could ever hope to achieve. |
