Ken, you might enjoy this, though it's a long 8 minutes. There's lots of "Yo Ho Ho-ing," too. Big Grin

A Maggers Haiku, 2005


Years ago my mother used to say to me... "In this world, Elwood, you can be oh so smart or oh so pleasant."
Well, for years I was smart.
I recommend pleasant.
You may quote me.

Goes for their public service campaigns, too. I couldn't get over a billboard I saw when driving round Perth, WA.

I was so taken aback I turned around and drove back to take a photo of it, but I can't find it in my piccy files.

I was surprised by huge billboards all around the highways in New South Wales showing a pretty young woman with her pinky finger extended and bent. The banner underneath read something like: "Speeding doesn't make her think your a big man." Or words to that effect. Wow.

And boy, have we gone off topic!
