Comments are very appreciated. But please no awards of the glittery kind and "post 1, comment 5" type and no multiple invitations in one comment - they will be deleted, sorry.
Sometimes I wish I had a clone (or two). One would work, one would do chores, pay bills, etc. and that would allow me time to spend with my family and explore my interests and hobbies.
This was composed of 3 different shots which I Photoshopped together.
I find cars with many bumper stickers interesting and try to check out as many as I can. I'm usually behind them in traffic so there isn't much time. In any case, I've acquired enough photos now to start a new collection which I hope you'll enjoy.
Please note that I'm not encouraging comments about the content of the stickers. That could quickly get into nasty arguments and I don't need that aggravation. We live in a country where people can put this stuff on the back of their cars. Let's simply revel in that.
Finally, I've loaded larger-than-usual versions of the pictures so that you can give these works of art the detailed inspection that they deserve.

Comments Please...This photo was taken before a local high school football game, outside the music room. The trumpet player was in charge of keeping an eye on the two younger brothers. I didn't know that when the photo was taken, only after observing the three at the game. Notice the shoeless performer. After he got positioned, he said to me, "Take my picture."
Please make comments!
Really cloudy here tonight! This was the best that I got!
Sorry to post and run! Hope to catch up this weekend on comments!

Agincourt, Trafalgar, Waterloo... you don’t have to be a learned scholar of our island history to know that, over the centuries, Britain’s entente with France has not always been cordiale.
Indeed, even in the recent years of firm (but wary) friendship, our two nations have often gone their divergent ways.
Leave aside the painful day in 1940, after France’s armistice with Hitler, when the Royal Navy was reluctantly obliged to sink the French fleet.
Think instead of France’s refusal to back us in the Falklands or (no matter how justifiably) Iraq. Or consider the 43 years, which ended only 19 months ago, during which the French rejected Nato.
Yet today, David Cameron and President Nicolas Sarkozy are to declare a new era of Anglo-French defence collaboration which will make independent action by either nation all but impossible.
Even at a time when it’s vital to save money, how can this be wise?
True, those who feel deeply uneasy about depending on France will be accused of living in the past. But it’s the future that worries the Mail.
Though Mr Cameron and M. Sarkozy may get along, where will Britain be left if we have to plead with a future French Socialist Government for the use of an aircraft carrier to defend our interests?
And how can the Tories, who rightly opposed plans for a European army, even consider handing operational control of the SAS to France?
Mr Cameron said yesterday: ‘The point is to enhance sovereign capability by two like-minded countries.’
We may be like-minded today, Prime Minister. But what about tomorrow?
A disingenuous gameSacked last year for attacking tougher controls on cannabis, the aptly-named Professor David Nutt tries a new approach to pushing his soft line on illegal drugs.
With fellow liberal campaigners, the former government drugs adviser publishes research — based on his own formula — purporting to prove that all illicit drugs, heroin included, are much less harmful than alcohol.
Let’s be clear. For many years, the Mail has been highlighting the damage done to society by alcohol abuse — and nobody has campaigned more vigorously for tighter rules, including an end to 24-hour licensing and cheap drink promotions.
But Professor Nutt is clearly pursuing a different agenda when he plays up the dangers of alcohol — preposterously suggesting that it should be classified as a Class A drug.
Isn’t his chief purpose to play down the harm done by illegal drugs such as cannabis and cocaine — just as he did last year, when he announced that ecstasy was less dangerous than horse-riding?
If he had experience of rundown estates, where girls sell their bodies for a fix of crack, would he be so blase about drug abuse?
Of course, Professor Nutt is entitled to his opinions. But when he dresses them up as science, he is playing a disingenuous and dangerous game.
Equality of failure
In the name of equality, Chief Schools Adjudicator Dr Ian Craig condemns faith schools for favouring families involved in church activities.
There’s a danger, he says, that they may be (shock, horror!) middle class.
Meanwhile, he warns that specialist music schools may be breaking the law by accepting gifted musicians according to their ‘ability’, rather than their ‘aptitude’.
In short, he won’t rest until all children, equally, are denied places at the schools that suit them best.
"the Royal Navy was reluctantly obliged to sink the French fleet."
Another betrayal from the British: killing 1,297 french soldiers for no reason and you dare to claim it was "obliged" to do so?
Appalling revisionnism from an appalling tabloid.

If not for this action , the French fleet would have been taken over and crewed by Germans, we may not have won the war and you could still be under Nazi occupation!!! please remember the traitors of the vichey who sided with the Germans killed more of your own countrymen than this reluctant action.

Maybe if the french hadn't capitulated so eagerly, we wouldn't have had to do it eh ?

"For many years, the Mail has been highlighting the damage done to society by alcohol abuse - and nobody has campaigned more vigorously for tighter rules, including an end to 24-hour licensing and cheap drink promotions."
Why not campign for a ban? The Mail constantly spreads propoganda to convince people that cannabis should be illegal, when it causes 0 deaths a year. But when it comes to the 10,000+ deaths a year that alcohol causes, you just want tighter rules, and no 24-hour licenses.
So to recap, the Mail's stance is:
0 deaths - keep it illegal
10,000+ deaths - keep it legal

We must also remember that they mutinied at Sedan and our Commanders said that we would draw rhe germans off by starting the Somme offensive where we lost so many of our troops.
As a Sovereign Nation we should always retain command of our troops and Cameron will learn this at his and our peril.

How can this work if the French have truly independent nuclear capability and Britain must go cap in hand to the US in order to use its nuclear warheads? Politicians do love their little games.

Would prof Nutt be so blase about drug abuse if he witnessed girls selling their bodies for crack? What sort of stupid, biased, uninformed and bigoted question is that??!
Shame on you, Daily Mail. Irresponsible, over-emotional and totally inaccurate rhetoric. Get real please.
