XXX Painted on Shed

A nude image of a couple having oral sex painted on a backyard shed is outraging some residents of a Northeast Albuquerque neighborhood.
 .
 .
The painting appeared in the Holiday Park area, and some neighbors quickly expressed their outrage to the homeowner. Three days later the painting remained on the shed but was partially covered by a black garbage bag.
Albuquerque police say they are investigating, the homeowner told them she is not responsible for the painting on her shed.
Neighbors later put up a large tarp to cover the shed from children, and said they would donate paint to the homeowner so she can cover it up.

Sign displays promise to would-be burglars

A son, wanting to protect his family's Hudson TX home, had a large sign made for his front yard. He says it's a promise, not a threat, to would-be burglars.

.
Steve Holland's 71 year-old mother, Claudia, had just turned off the TV around 11:30 p.m. when she heard a "whop" sound as someone kicked open her front door.
She says her three dogs, Jessie, Hank and Speedy went nuts, barking ferociously at the people on the other side of the door.
She called police, and she now has a new door and deadbolt.  However, that wasn't enough for her son.
"The idea that if she hadn't had those dogs to kind of scare them off... what could've happened," said Steve Holland.
Still, he wanted to do something else to keep the home safer.  He immediately called his friends at Lufkin's Adfab to make the large sign for the front yard.
"I just wanted to put out a big enough message not just to whoever broke-in, but the rest of the community," said Steve.
It was put on the lawn just a few days ago, and already the family has gotten so many calls laughing at the sign. Steve says it's not a joke; there are three guns in the home.
"You're lucky she dialed 9-1-1 instead of getting the gun out of her walker," said Steve.
He says whoever tries to break-in next won't be as fortunate.

'Warning - drunks in road'

Officials in Pecica, a village town about 13 miles from the Hungarian border in the country’s west, ordered the bright red signs, complete with the phrase “Attention - Drunks”.
The 10 road signs, which also show a person crawling on their knees while clutching a glass in one hand, were erected in popular nightspot areas close to the city's bars and restaurants.

Signs were an Elaborate Prank.

People walking the Routeburn track need nappies (diapers) for the trip, according to bogus, yet realistic, Department of Conservation signs. Printed on cardboard in the familiar colors, the signs bear even the authentic department and Great Walks logos.
But that is where the similarities end, with messages advising people to wear nappies and directing people to a public toilet up a steep rock face.
One sign found on the Routeburn in September reads: "Please do not defecate in our National Parks. Heavy duty tramping nappies are available from all DOC visitor centers free of charge, and DOC hut wardens carry an emergency supply. Toilets in conservation areas are strictly for urination only."
