Iwonder if we could get that on the Washington Monument so Trump would see it every morning
The park service would remove it. Should they encounter a second government shut down, they will take awhile to get around to it. Oh, say around 3037.
That's a Gladys, not a mural ... Gladys not Putin!
That's a new one on me. I thought it was graffiti.
Gladys? Do you know a Ruby Begonia?
@WonderWartHog99 Sister to that leech big Black Mal Begonia? - Nope, glad to state that I never had the displeasure.
@FrayedBear "Do you know a Ruby Begonia?" is a re-occurring phrase in the radio show Amos and Andy. It used to be such a popular show in the 1940's (I bought a taped collection of their shows), they would stop movies to let patrons hear their radio show.
Amos and Andy continued as a TV show into the 1950's until people said it was too racist to be on the air, even though many black comics objected. The show centered around a community of successful black urban professionals.
@WonderWartHog99 Aha, no I've never ever encountered Amos and Andy in either the UK or Australia. Are you saying that the programme was full of puns?
@FrayedBear They had more than their share of puns and malapropisms but my favorite exchange was
"Amos, where are we going to get all this money?"
"Why Andy, it all come outta the overhead."
Then there was this:
District attorney "How did you meet Mr. Stevens?"
"About 18 years ago, I was at a carnival. When I reached in my pocket for my wallet, I shook hands with Mr. Stevens."
@WonderWartHog99 Your former reminds me of the shill selling of car leases by car salesmen and finance companies 40 years ago "take it on a lease, the tax will pay for it".
And your shaking hands - didn't that wonderful American short story writer O. Henry write that about 130 years ago?
