House signs, V2.0
« on: November 29, 2011, 02:43:22 pm »

Let's discuss the various signs we have around our homes and neighborhoods here!

The door to my room has a crayon sign that says "beware the troll" on it. I used to like to troll forums.

Maybe it's parasitic. It never loses its flavor because you eventually die from having your nutrients stolen by it.

In front of my house are two metal signs warning people that the electric gate might open or close at any time, which is a lie because the gate motor burnt out at least ten years ago.

We used to have a brass plaque screwed onto the house, by the front door.  It said "Never mind the dog, beware of the owner."  When we repainted the house, I took it down.  Before I got the chance to put it back up, our last dog died and we've not wanted another one.  I still have the plaque, though, just in case.

My mother had a sign in front of her house that said "The Rockpile".  That was what she called her retirement property.  It was a carved wooden sign.  We took pictures of the sign when she sold the house and went into assisted living, and I suppose it is gone now.  I can't find my copy of the picture, either, but I know my sister took one of it.

Almost losing is sometimes fun.

We have a cast iron knight riding charging on a horse in front of our house.
Don't know why, it was just there when we got the house.
