It's likely I won't engage in further substantive debate with most of you nice folks for the same reason I won't likely jump headfirst into a wood chipper. One already knows the likely result of each action.

Yet here you are again, doing what disruptive trolls always do in communities when theirs is the minority opinion and they cannot convince.  They insult and ridicule.

You have simply opted for grammatical application of words you just learned the meaning of rather than four-letter invectives that your kind often spew.

I stay around because I keep hoping that someone on the anti-Trump side of the issue will actually post something straightforward, brief and to the point ( as I have several times) without hateful invective and derisive, sadistic venom, (not to mention being dull and boring) worthy of a substantive response.

That there is a monster lie, provable by your own hand in reply.  You are no more interested in s substantive response than Obama is interested in heterosexual American patriotism.  Your own hand told us what your interests are - and they are the interests of your typical disruptive troll demanding attention, no matter how outrageous you have to be to get it.

We know what spirit you are of given your own hand and words making that self-evident.

I read that as Caligula bubble bath and spent far longer than necessary thinking what exactly that would be.

Been a long week ....

of fair disclosure, I've had an interest in the Burma-Shave sign campaign for a long time and have read two charming
books about them, Mr. Frank Rowsome, Jr.'s The Verse By the Side of the Road and Mr. Bill Vossler's Burma-
Shave: The Rhymes, the Signs, the Times. Recommended reading for anyone whose Americana interests are more
than skin deep, if you'll pardon the expression.) But considering the tenor of the current campaign, you'd get the
impression sometimes that tricks, cheap or otherwise, would be an improvement. ;)

Bill Bryson wrote very affectionately about those signs in one of his books. MAD did a really good set of parodies - I'll see if I can dig out the book it's in and scan it for you.
