may the cajoling force be with you? and darn those quislings and their 1000 friends! Most everybody knows what a quisling is: a turncoat, a Judas, a Benedict Arnold. Specifically, the American Heritage Dictionary defines it as “a traitor who serves as the puppet of the enemy occupying his or her country.”
Main Entry: quis·ling
Pronunciation: \ˈkwiz-liŋ\
Function: noun
Usage: often attributive
Etymology: Vidkun Quisling †1945 Norwegian politician who collaborated with the Nazis
Date: 1940
: traitor 2, collaborator
— quis·ling·ism \-liŋ-ˌi-zəm\ noun
Marriam-Webster is my favorite dictionary on line. I went right to it when I saw this photo.
Thanks Matt for all your journey is to us…….Please slow down….we do not want it to end yet.
“put one foot in front of the other and soon you’ll be……”
Perhaps the collective and demonstrative anger of landowners, farmers, and developers over the Hanford Reach and CSG wilderness conservation Acts lobbied for by the incumbent gov. and prominent republican politicians at that time. Those skunks apparently bear the names of the so-called “quislings.”
And that signs legal to put up? Such a big billboard I would think there would be an ordinance against it. ha ha. Guess there are things like this all over the country. Some are just weird idiots that go on for years and cover their entire houses and cars with stuff like this. At least one man here has done that. Crazy. Skunk dinner anyone?

That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so.
If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out.
If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania.
You can read all about the details of my trip
if you're so inclined.
Interesting…verrrrry interesting.
And… Now how do you really feel about it?
Exactly… was there a p.s. sign with more ??
I’m impressed they were able to spell correctly.

oh yeah, that’s what i meant. ‘most everybody knows’??? i didn’t think so. sorry ’bout that.
I was more in awe of the word crockedness
Hi LaraPenny. I actually looked up “crockedness” before I read the sign, and saw it was “crookedness,” but I think you are on to something.
Merriam-Webster’s defines crocked as “drunk,” and crock can be to smudge, or to become disabled.

I just love when passionate people are vague AND wordy. It really makes me sympathetic to the cause and moves me to take action. Not.
God bless freedom of speech. When pissed off people unite for a purpose, amazing things can happen.
