Burma Shave Slogans

(Stolen affectionately from somewhere on the net.)

These signs used to appear along side the highway, each sign containing one sentence of a longer slogan. So you would drive by and the kids would all read aloud each of the signs. (And those kids are now in their '60s.)

Anyway, some of these can be pretty fun, though it pays to pause between each line and imagine yourself rumbling down an old 2-lane road, top down on the Chevy convertable, watching America roll by...
