5. another way of protecting it is
to implant razor blades (if it is a wood stake sign) so just the tip is sticking out. It only takes some asshole once to get his hand shredded.

24. No need - use Vaseline and finely pureed Chocolate or Red Savina Habanero peppers.
Wear latex gloves (very, very important). Puree several peppers and mix with the vaseline. Smear liberally (hah!) all over sign and especially the stakes or post. Will defer most dorks after one exposure, especially if the perp touches his face or naughty bits with the concoction.

37. Unless of course you run across one of the few inidviduals...
who love habanero peppers and hot sauce. I find jalapeño peppers moderately hot and enjoy eating one as a snack. Habanero peppers are a lot hotter, but I could probably eat one without any serious side effects if someone dared me to and laid a five dollar bill on the table. I once watched a lady from one of the Caribbean islands eat a habanero raw. The manager of the vegetable department in a grocery store asked her if she found the peppers hot. She merely smiled and ate one with no problem at all.

One of my favorite breakfasts is a Jimmy Dean Breakfast bowl. I slice up two jalapeño peppers, a Habanero pepper and a small tomato and add them to the breakfast bowl along with a couple tablespoons of hot picante sauce. One great way to start my day. If I do forget to wash my hands after cutting the peppers and rub my eyes, my eyes sting a little. No big deal. The worst side effect I suffer is something called the "ring of fire" the next morning when I go to the bathroom.

I've loved hot sauce all my life. When I was very young I would put a drop of Tabasco sauce on a spoon and eat it. Eventually I could eat a full teaspoon of Tabasco sauce without any problems. Somewhere along the way I seem to have lost my sense of taste and to a degree my ability to smell. This has had some advantages. After I was divorced and living alone, I could cover of the taste of the meals I prepared with a liberal dose of hot sauce. I never had to worry about my Labrador Retriever eating my food if I left the room.

More Americans today are enjoying real hot sauces. The fad is addictive and has turned into a hobby.

If you're curious about this phenomena visit a site like:
http://www.onlinehotsauce.com/

I nothing else, the hot sauce labels can be humorous.


or:


The Palin hot sauce is probably not all the hot (nor is she), but beware of Da Bomb.

Poochkins looks quite ready and experienced. You know, Charlton Heston wasn't such a bad guy after all.

I, on the other hand, just sit there with my machiato.

33. Of course not...I doubt that she would either...
From Use of Deadly Force for Lawful Self-Defense found on the Florida Division of Licensing web page:

Q. When can I use my handgun to protect myself?

A. Florida law justifies use of deadly force when you are:

* Trying to protect yourself or another person from death or serious bodily harm;
* Trying to prevent a forcible felony, such as rape, robbery, burglary or kidnapping.

Using or displaying a handgun in any other circumstances could result in your conviction for crimes such as improper exhibition of a firearm, manslaughter, or worse.

Example of the kind of attack that will not justify defending yourself with deadly force: Two neighbors got into a fight, and one of them tried to hit the other by swinging a garden hose. The neighbor who was being attacked with the hose shot the other in the chest. The court upheld his conviction for aggravated battery with a firearm, because an attack with a garden hose is not the kind of violent assault that justifies responding with deadly force.

http://licgweb.doacs.state.fl.us/weapons/self_defense.html

Stealing a yard sign doesn't justify the use of deadly force.

But the picture is interesting and humorous.

34. Beautiful dog.
Now spin I've seen some hoses do some damage. Granted you wouldn't use them in the garden because they were flowing 250 gallons per minute. I appreciate you cross posting this.

41. Pit Bulls have a really bad reputation as do guns....
Bur a lot depends on the owners of both.

A pit bull raised properly is an excellent intelligent dog. My daughter had a wonderful pit bull which was stolen from her yard in south Florida. She was watching a local news program from Miami and believed she recognized the dog on a news clip of dogs acquired from a dog fighting ring. Her dog had some unusual markings for a pit bull. She contacted the news department of the TV station, but was informed that the dogs had already been euthanized. She was heart broken.

43. This lady might have made a good choice as Obama's VP...
assuming she has some intelligence. Obviously she does as she supports Obama.

She's better looking than Sarah Palin and she would cancel out any votes that McCain gained by choosing Palin.
