Beverage: green tea
Toast: to your health, sir
This is the sign of the sucker- the easy mark. The person in the house marked with this glyph is a fool for the taking.
Most of the hobo signs have a gentle, almost quaint vibe. Look out for the mean ole' dog! Hey! That feller is a policeman! This one is a little more sinister message. And is it me, or is this thing kind of phallic?
I guess calling them hobos or highway is a little romantic as well. These are homeless people we're talking about after all. There was a funny piece on the news last night. The gist was that they built a park and walking trail along a river and now they are noticing a lot of homeless people nearby. Of course there are shocking tales of public urination and lots of What about the children!!? Some woman is leading a crusade or something.
Cut to a hobo who went by the name of Drummer or something. "It's a disgrace!" Drummer declared to the camera. "They built this trail and now all these people are around all the time! Listen, I don't like most people, and I certainly don't like you" he declared affably. "But I've been here for years and I have no intention of going anywhere. So build yer trails somewhere else!" Big smile and a wave.
Drummer was clearly the winner of the congeniality prize and stole the show from the offended crusader.
