Writing sign ads for Slugging...

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I thought about writing signs with pieces of posterboard advertising slugging. Then getting someone to stand on 14th right before the entrance ramp to I-395 and hold up the signs. Homeless people or unemployed environmental activists looking for something to do post Earth Day.

	Something like:

	- You could be in the HOV. slug-lines.com

	- Hate traffic? Try casual carpooling as a slug. 

	- If you had two more passengers, you wouldn't be stuck here. 

	- Casual carpool in the HOV with slug-line.com

	- Springfield, Lorton, Woodbridge, Stafford, Frederickburg drivers, see slug-lines.com to cut commute time. 

	- Commute fast and free down I-95. slug-lines.com

	------------

	Do any of these sound good? Any more suggestions?

	I have a WWII Propoganda poster from when they were saving fuel for the troops... It says "When you ride alone, you ride with HITLER!" and it has a dude driving his car with a ghosty lookin' Hitler in the passenger seat." If I could find someone to print this in large scale, I'd be posting it up at the commuter lots. EDIT: Here, I found a print of it online... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ride_with_hitler.jpg ------------------------- Times to beat: Horner Rd to/from Pentagon: 12 mins Without Slugs - 17 mins With slugs Dale City exit to/from 3rd St Tunnel, D.C. 18 mins (No slugs - Holiday)

	If they are willing to sit in that traffic they are obviously in no rush to get home. quote: Originally posted by Pele quote: Originally posted by NO44 You guys must really not like your marriage.

Nic Unfortunately a lot of people go for the affordability of the suburbs - sacrifice family time so that they have decent schools and space.
