haha, where are you from, NJ? I used to live there. Down here in VA, our government road work crews actualy WORK! I was shocked when i found out! The image looks best in white on black. That way you can put yellow stripes on the road. You can view it on my website at www.ashermaximum.com

I lived in CA where road crews really work, especially after Earthquakes and floodding. Now I live in VA where the people won't even vote for a meassure to do road work because they are so confidant that V-DOT will mess it up or take too long. People here in the Norfolk area have a very different experiance from yours about VA road crews. -- =()==()==()==()==()- http://fauxascii.com \ \ \ \ \ \ ASCII artist :F_P:-O- -O- -O- -O- -O- -O- -O- \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \

(Pneumatic hammer in International). Obligatory cigarette too. British (European?) usage is that advisory road signs are triangular, compelling roadsigns are round. So a "caution" should be triangular, but a "Stop", "No Entry" or speed limit ought to be round - why we took up the octagon for "Stop HERE!", I don't know. ^ / \ _____ / \ / / \ / \ | / \ /caution\ \_/. | / road \ / \__,/\ / work \ / \ /_____________\ ~ /\ | / /\ | _/_/ \ | ^ _|_ | | / \ |I| / \ | /===\ >|_|< / \ ~~~~|~~~~+~~~~~+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~|~~/~~~~~\~~~~~~~ V =================================================== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now, for the obligatory 3 others standing around picking their noses ...

nice. i like the cig. and the jackhammer looks much better
combining the altered jackhammer with the sign in the java one, i made
this:

And where's the >sleazy broad holding the "slow/stop" sign? ;-) When you're digging a hole you need 3 people per shovel. It's fucking hard work.
