Ditto. I read his post as joking too. I'd be surprised if he literally meant swiping Realtor's signs. Nahhhh.
Socialism is almost the worst.

Thanks for all the tips, guys, I appreciate it. One question: Where can I buy butcher paper? Please don't say "the butcher"!

These are a little pricier than bulk paper rolls but are very handy to use (overlapping circles to capture off center shots, for instance) Hunter John
Such a long, long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.

The rolls of paper that come into a print shop are always wrapped and the wrapping sealed with a circular, heavy, water resistant coated paper, stamped on either end. The paper handler removes these ends with a knife before loading the roll into the press. If you are near a larger newsprint or direct mail shop, they will typically give these ends to you for the asking, as they have enough glue on them to not be worth recycling. Ask for "web ends". The rolls for a typical half web press are about 50" across, if memory serves. Half or full web roll ends will work perfect.
Wish I had a buck for every one I've shot in my life. Total cost has been zero.
Best,
Ted

Doug, Thank you for the reminder to be a gentleman. In that regard, after successfully harvesting an unguarded, non-booby trapped lawn sign be sure to leave a thank you note. Unsigned. When not using the frame for a patterning board, I use the frame to hold a "Get off my lawn" sign. I got hoarse from constantly hollering "Get off my lawn" at the damn little bed wetters..  Gil

Gil Gil, You should put up an electronic lawn perimeter laser around your lawn for the bed wetters......the real estate sign holes probably look tacky after repeated installation and removal...?.....Or, you could just park your car on the front lawn where they would have to walk around it....... Is your lawn on par with 16th hole in quality and texture...?.....I do understand your concern.....

Doug, on Halloween I used a motion detector rigged to turn on my lawn sprinklers when they'd approach the front door. I used a laser to deactivate the hose when they were taller than 3.5'. I got tired of hiding in the bushes holding the hose. Any suggestions how to get toliet paper out of sweet gum trees and raw eggs off window glass? My lawn looks like the rough at St. Andrews and there is no more room to park another car. Besides, I ran out of cinder blocks to support another. Gil

Gil, Have you tried putting a sign under each sweet gum tree that reads: "Gil PC, Attorney at Law"...it may scare the toilet paper out of the trees...?....Just a thought.... As far as the dried egg on your windows, no short cuts come to mind, only elbow grease....yours or somebody else's....LOL....It is possible that Wonko has a special brew for that application....?
Doug
