It's not terrible that someone made a mistake, it's terrible that all the other "superiors" didn't notice.

Pete,

I don't know if the guy who painted that was a college guy or not, BUT I'm guessing that was hand rolled and probably took at least an hour or two to finish.

The foreman must have been "hand rolling" something else under the shade tree.






God Bless, Ray

Awww....that's them guys down southeast of town...they make 'em not sharpen their crayons and stuff down there...

...I live northwest, not southeast, and the shop is right in downtown, so we don't really "connect" with 'em out that way...

...well...'cept'n for Keith, he lives out that way, actually, now that I think about it...

It's really bad when you make local Georgia news

They should've give the first grade class a shot. I bet it would've been cheaper. A few choclate chip cookies and some milk, and it probably would've gotten done right the first time.

OK Joe, Remember ebonics???? I'm just speakin' Hillbillyonics. As an American I have the right to do so.

But on the other hand, Maybe it DOES have something to do with Roscoe Basses.

They put the Gris Gris on ya and you become an idjut.





I may make a grammatical error now and then, but I didn't get paid to take a couple of hours to paint something and STILL get it wrong

God Bless, Ray

The great and powerful R, has his own gris-gris with those hand formed exotic trees he produces into instruments. He needs no help from you unless there's something that needs totin'.
