Looking for parade suggestions (Vanity)
me and you | today | self

Posted on 07/02/2009 6:13:29 PM PDT by Past Your Eyes

I have a 1948 Farmall M (that's an old farm tractor for you non-rural types) which I plan to put in the local July 4 parade if it stops raining by then. It has a set of plows mounted on it and I'm looking for ideas for something pithy to say. So far I'm thinking "Plowed under with debt. Thanks, Washington."
Suggestions welcome.
Back in '04, I pulled a manure spreader with a sign on it that said "Political Promises Here". Got lots of thumbs up along the route. The turd hearse has since been given away, unfortunately.

A wise crack about a Victory garden might work. Covering manure might work with Crap and Trade.

Do you have a post hole auger? “Drill here, drill now!” or “Cap and trade. Screwed by the government again.”

“I gave away my spreader -
You’ll get your BS from Obama”

Nope, no auger.

That one is way too shiny.


This picture is at least 3 years old. It hasn't improved.

Gadsden flag. (Don't Tead On Me)

My '52 Farmall M will be in a parade, but due to being in a club I cannot use that flag.

Biblical theme? Perhaps some variant of:

Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears: let the weak say "I am strong." — Joel 3:10
