afpierce489 Thanks, But you may have a bit TOO much time on your hands.

 

The challenge says any sign without english on it!

 

SEE! It's not so easy even with the soft ball challanges! Sitting out for a few. To much whinning ofer my HARD ones.

 

let it be known that afpierce489 is the official keeper of records for this thread.
I dont think we need a vote on this one.
Thanks afpierce489
-C

also, I am too busy to deal with any of the nay sayers, I trust you are on it.

 

vfrhusband - Yes, I do have alot of time on my hands now. I retired from the Navy in March after 21 years. I don't start college until the fall so I've got alot of time to do things like this now. And, now that my bike is up and running I can participate in these here games.

tinkerinWstuff - I went back and double checked and the dates are correct. The dates are not when the challenge was won, but when the next challenge was posted. Cundalini posted his on 3/28, you posted your pic on 3/31, but didn't post up the next challenge until 4/8, according to the time stamp on this thread.

This one is a hard challenge. I live up here in CT by the casino's so I'm going to try and go over there today and see if there is any signs in a foreign language.

 

How about a sign that says "Stop Eh! " That isn't realy English. That's Canajin
.

 

Does "This sign made in Taiwan" count?

 

Sucks! Nothing by the casino's.

 

Guys Guys Guys,

A sqare sign on white back ground with a black border and a black curved arrow pointing either way, with a red circle around it and a diagonal red line thorugh the arrow is a traffic sign. It does not have English on it. Everyone here drives by thousands of such signs every day. How about the "Do Not Enter" signs with now wording on them? Arrows painted on the road are a traffic control device. A stop line is a traffic control devise. TCD are signs.

Got your MoJo going yet?

 

Isn't this one dead in a few hours anyway? Weather here is cooperating for once, I might try for this later tonight if it's still available.

 

To be honest I really thought he was going for a sign with words on it but not in engrish. Just the way I read it or I woulda gotten this one up quick. I really shoulda jumped on the public transpo one but I was half busy and half lazy. Photo Contest FAIL!!!:doh:

 

working 8:30 am til 7:30 pm all week so I can have the time off forSLO. Sorry I havent been playing, posting or chatting.I will return someday - I promise.
