Whoa, someone struck back at Michael Moore!
There is a freeway on-ramp very close to my house where Fahrenheit 9/11 signs were plastered all over a plywood construction fence. Here is what it looked like before:

Seems like the guy ran out of signs. Too bad, eh?

One of those BC stickers on each of those nasty faces would make that a superior billboard.

You put those up with some kind of real strong epoxy or something, right?

They were applied over Michael Moore's face, which is very similar (greasy and stinky).
Would you take the B-C signs down and expose his mug again?

What are you guys thinking? RL was just drivin' down the road minding his own business and found someone had put new BC campaign signs up on M&M's posters so he just took a picture!

Exaaaaaaaaactly, Blademaster. I don't appreciate the accusations one bit.

I wouldn't know, but I did examine the signs up close. It appears that whoever put them up initially tried to use a hammer and u-shaped nails, but the plywood had been treated or had metal against it or something so the nails would not penetrate. The culprit then appears to have gone to a back-up plan -- glue. I would speculate that Elmer's may have been used.

RL... based on your professional opinion, what type of adhesive 'might' have been used to put those B/C signs on fatboy's face?
