Just a quick message to the jerk-off that stole our Obama-Biden yard sign:
If you are a Democrat that wanted the sign for your own yard: That was cold. Those signs cost money because you only deserve to display it if you’ve contributed to his campaign. Stealing ours is like stealing a donation, and that’s not cool to do to your favored contender.
If you are a Republican: Stupid move moron. Greg and I will now go and spend another $10 for yard sign #2. More money for him to bury Captain Old Man Pants and his attractive yet woefully incompetent running mate.
Oh cool, I can put my own polls in blog posts now!!!! Lets try it out and see who people think stole our sign:
UPDATE: How’s this for Karma – Not 10 minutes after writing this post, Greg and I headed to Chipotle for our delicious and lazy Friday night dinner. As I finished paying for our meals, I glanced down to the floor and saw that Greg was practically stepping on a $10 bill. That’s right. I happened to find money in the EXACT amount that a shiny new Obama-Biden yard sign will cost. Is the Universe telling us something? Now I just have to rely on my engineering-minded husband to make our new sign robbery-proof.
UPDATE #2: I bought our new sign this morning with the Chipotle money. I learned at the local Dems office that nearly all Obama signs in my area were stolen. So that means…lots more money for the Obama campaign! Wow, what a logical and effective way to “stick it to us”. Oh, and the nice lady at the Dems office suggested a rather creative booby-trapping method for our sign. I won’t mention it here lest the info fall into the wrong hands…but I will say that its all natural, completely legal, and won’t leave injury (well, no permanent injury anyway)!

Okay, I’ve got to know what this sign booby-trap method is. We’ve got our sign posted in our window (don’t have a yard) so it is safe, but I’m VERY curious.
PS. This post cracked me up.

Well, since Greg didn’t let me carry out the booby-trapping method, I will divulge it to the public. The lady at the Dems office suggested that I chop or grind up a jalapeno pepper (or a hotter pepper would work even better), mix it with vaseline, and (using disposable gloves of course), smear the concoction on the sign wherever one might grab it. This way, the evil pepper juices would get on the skin of the perpetrator as well as in their car upholstery and wherever else it touches. Having gotten jalapeno juices under my fingernails and in my eyes before, I know its not a pleasant experience.
I thought it was brilliant, but Greg deemed it too mean b/c after the elections, sometimes Dem Party volunteers are sent out to collect signs.
Oh, and for another update…I counted 5 new Obama signs in my neighborhood after the raid, so that’s another $50 toward the campaign. Way to let us have it
