I'll Need Bail Money

Racine will make my wife into a jailbird.

The [Racine] ordinance also has mandates about signs advertising rummage sales. Residents are only allowed to put up two signs per sale, and the signs must be removed by 8 a.m. the day after the sale is complete.In addition, the signs can be placed on the resident’s property or neighbor’s property with permission, but may not be placed on public property, according to the ordinance. That includes light poles, directional signs and street medians.

TWO SIGNS??

You're crazy.

Put it on Craigslist, too.

Silly ordinance, nonetheless.

Oh good grief. Half the fun is getting confused by the competing rummage sale signs and driving into the lake.

Ha! We don't see eye-to-eye on many things, but that was funny.

I also find the signs with chicken-scratch handwriting amusing.

Well, OS, we're having a rummage sale. Fortunately for you, the nearest lake is about 7 miles away.

However, do NOT drive onto the Waukesha Gun Club's range. There are about 200 shotgunners out there this weekend--all using 12-ga.
