This first sign is out in the front of El Arroyo Mexican restaurant. The sign is kinda famous because they change it everyday. Most of the time it is about a current event and pretty witty. This one made me chuckle. I couldn't think for the life of me how to explain it to the kids. 'Yes guys, former President Clinton is a Democrat. And yes, Sarah Palin is a Republican. And they are trying to be funny...ha ha ha...and hey, look over there at the slug bug.'

Now this display was WAY harder to explain because I was trying to help the kids understand that these folks are Democrat and they are pretending that these famous Republicans are dead in a Halloween way. They don't really want them dead, or at least I don't think they do. And you should know, this display is across the street from the school yard where S practices soccer. Why in the world can't they just have a Happy Halloween sign???? (Click photo to zoom in on the 'Elephant Graveyard.'

More to come...

It's so much fun when they start "getting it."
Glad I don't line IN Austin, right now ;-)
Drove to an Austin library branch yesterday. Had to explain the men collecting for a "ministry" and why I'm not giving them money.
I didn't understand El Arroyo's signs though... Although Powell has endorsed Obama, Clinton has also endorsed Obama. So, I don't get it. It's not even funny to me. Mrs. Carr, when we drive around I guess you're gonna have to splain the signs to me too. LOL
