  1. Hey Guys..... thanks for the good wishes. It is bad....I mean really bad. The winds are really making this thing almost impossible. Here is a video for you to view if you wish to see what I am going through....

    Again, many of you have sent personal wishes and I appreciate it very much. Personally, I am still out of arms way, but these winds and lack of rain fall make it a very, very tense situation.

  2. I need all you guys to keep us in your thoughts and prayers. High winds knocked a tree down which knocked a transformer to the ground igniting an uncontrollable fire here where I live. Though the fire poses no threat to my business at this time, many of my friends have lost everything including local sign man Buddy Carter, whose entire business has burned to the ground. At the time of this writing only 25 percent of the fire is contained. Thanks in advance for your prayers. Here is a local link describing the fire rampage. :amerflag:

  3. Spent the day in Hilton Head, South Carolina today...... college buddy of mine lives on the course where the big shots are playing the golf tournament..... I have not been to visit him in 10 years but it was great seeing him and others..... But it is time to vent a little.... the sign ordinace there sucks the big one..... It was bad 10 years ago, but it is unfricking believable now. Some a#*hole in a business suit has come through Hilton Head and sold the City Commision that they need NO DAMN signs. If they choose to have the ONE sign they are allowed, IT must not exceed the height of the smallest midget recorded in the current Guiness Book of World Records. The town was invaded this weekend by total strangers.......who have no fricking clue where they are going..... I personally saw three rear end collisions of people who went past the business patron they were trying to serve only to be rear ended by someone else......In my opinion, it is time that the business owners step forward and get a grip on the sign police......business owners collect the most sales tax.....they pay the most for business liscences, they pay the most adv. tax and they basically keep a heartbeat going in the community.

    PS...... the roads in South Carolina still suck

  4. Very well stated Mark. Maybe the LED guys will quit trying to simulate the job of Neon and find a way to harness their energy in a more productive way. Go to any Technical School or College Entry that has a LED Reader board and they too will see that they have created the very animal that will seal their fate....... TOO DAMN BRIGHT TO READ. :neon:
