You're absolutely right, usually I'm the most concerned about gun safety in the group, but in that particular public event we were carrying unloaded toy guns and pulling the trigger during the photos looked more bad *** :eek:

I think I saw that shot in the background on a recent episode of Prototype This on the Discovery Channel. Is there an old factory located on the left bank there?

Wonder why this reads
{arrow}
LANE
BIKE

instead of

{arrow}
BIKE
LANE

I know this isn't a simple mistake by the city worker who painted this, because I've seen this multiple times in multiple cities.

Re: Random Pictures Thread Part III

Makes sense to me....read the words as you approach them.

Around here they just paint a picture of a bicycle in the bike lanes.
