I WONDER WHY THE SIGN SAYS "STAND UP UNDER FIRE" AND THE BLOTTER SAYS "STANDS UP UNDER FIRE" ?????

RICK, I'VE FOUND A FEW EXAMPLES OF THIS SIGN AND THE SIGN AS I ORIGINALLY POSTED IT WITH BLACK (AND NOT PHOTOSHOPPED) IS HOW THEY ALL SHOW UP.

JUST SAYING. MAYBE THEY MADE THEM 2 DIFFERENT WAYS. DATES FROM 1925 BTW.

These two lost young 'uns showed up at my mancave here in town last month. Tired, hungry, and a long way from home. I sure didn't want to take them home. They had that,,,,you know, that look wink wink Said there were from way up yonder...place called Illa, illa aw...some where up yonder...they was yankees thru and thru. He said he was from Louisiana, but he didn't talk like us.....wish I could have ditched the young fella...his gal friend was a real sweetie wink wink. Anyway they looked hungry and they were nice and warm now so I took them out to eat...poor thangs, they looked like they hadn't had anything decent to eat in days...poor thangs. Anyway my plan didn't work. I figured he would have to go to the restroom to relieve that bladder....but nooooooo! Kid must be part camel! at least I know how large his bladder is...it will hold at least 8 large glasses of sweet tea!!! You see the plan...while he goes, I leave with the gal wink wink.
Anyway I gave them a few bucks to get rid of them...glad I did. They sure eat alot!!! Before I got rid of them we had a pic taken at Paddys mancave with my sign that I picked up this past summer at Iowa gas...I guess the young fella was on to my scheme...he sure wouldn't let her go! Keep her at within arms reach the rest of the time.
