Yes. In reference to yesterday's rant about making signs neat and fonts uniform, may I add the following requests? How about using a dictionary, or at least asking that high-schooler down the street, to verify the spelling of "maverick" and "socialist"? No one would deny your right to express yourself as you see fit, but spellin' words "right" and "stuff like that there" help you make your point with greater clarity.
Got to hand it to this guy, though. It sure looks like he drew pencil guidelines before he lettered up his plywood placards.
And to answer your question sir, no, I guess I am not.
Here's my Matt Lauer impersonation! Switching gears now, here's a story to make you feel happy, from Reuters:
Hero dog risks life to save kittens from fire

SYDNEY (Reuters) – A dog was hailed as a hero on Sunday after it risked its life to save a litter of newborn kittens from a house fire, rescuers said.
In a case which gives the lie to the saying about 'fighting like cats and dogs', the terrier named Leo had to be revived with oxygen and heart massage after his ordeal. Fire broke out overnight at the house in Australia's southern city of Melbourne, where he was guarding the kittens.
Fire fighters who revived Leo said he refused to leave the building and was found by them alongside the litter of kittens, despite thick smoke.
"Leo wouldn't leave the kittens and it nearly cost him his life," fire service Commander Ken Brown told reporters.
The four kittens also survived the fire and Sunday Leo, whom fire fighters nicknamed 'Smoky', was again back at the house.

But see, good spellin' is elitist.
Now stop all this ritin' and go put some food on your family!
Loved the story of the dog and the cats. Animals are so smart. It seems they always know just what to do.
