Husband Hangs Banner From Highway Asking For Divorce
KTVU ^ | October 13, 2005

LONDON -- Is there a sure sign that a troubled couple needs marital counseling? One marriage counselor say it's pretty clear when they start going public with their dirty laundry.

In Britain, JBS wanted a divorce, and he didn't care who knew. So last week he hung a banner from a highway bridge that said "Wendy, I want a divorce. JBS."

She responded Wednesday with a new banner in the same place. It said, "No way. You are the cheat. Wendy."

One counselor said the pair are very angry to air feelings in such a public way. Christine Northam also said it's very immature. She's urging marriage counseling.

I have to say. I'm waiting in anticipation for Hillary to do the same thing.

Oh come on now! Certainly there is someone who can go hang
a, "Wendy, I was wrong and I'll never go out with him again,
JBS" sign up there.

No doubt. Even a "I slept with a bridesmaid at our wedding --JBS" would work nicely.

Not that I'm in favor of quickie divorces, but it's probably over at this point.

That photo reminds me of when I was younger and worked at a full service gas station/auto garage. One day a tow truck pulled up with a car with four tires slashed, broken windows, and "Merry X-Mas, Captain Kirk", was spray painted on the body of the car (Captain Kirk being slang for a guy who fancies himself a ladies man, circa 1995). The man who accompanied the car just shook his head solemnly and said, "Don't ever cheat on a black girl." (He was white)

I'm wondering if this is some advertisement of some sort and we just don't have the rest of the story.

OMG, that's hysterical. The cheating husband sign on the boat is too funny. I didn't throw my ex's stuff on the lawn, I put it in garbage bags and took it to his mother. LOL
