Random signs along the highway from Dallas to DC

I'm now in DC, about to start law school. I've wrote the last two or three entries on the way up--I just need to type them in. Meanwhile, for some fun:

Fate, 1 mile---Texas--I 30

Ammo Depot, with M16s on the billboard--Texas I-30


Buckaruz Beer Barn--"American Owned"--Texas I-30 (I'm sure international investors are really interested in texas drive thru liquor stores)


Greenville, Texas--a place that my father informs me once had the unofficial motto of "the whitest people and the blackest soil"--denoting its rich farmland and less than progressive racial attitudes


Lone Star Army Ammunition Depot--Texas I-30


"America Return to God"--Arkansas I-30


Unfortunately, the signs got a lot lamer after Texas.


"Caution--unsocialized homeschoolers on board"--car on I-40 Tennessee


"Titanic: A Family Experience"--I40 Billboard Tennessee


"Bad things come in threes. Newcastle comes in sixes"--I40 Billboard Tennessee (so Newcastle is two bad things)

Nathan Bedford Forrest State Park--I40, Tennessee. (Nothing says racial tolerance like having a state park named after the first KKK grand wizard!)

Text Bang to 6247--Fireworks Store advert--I40, Tennessee

Much More than Knives--I-40, Tennessee

Gunrunners--Team Glock--I-40 Tennessee

Congress, you have failed us. Vote out all incumbents this Nov.--I81, Virginia

Missouri license plate that read "Zombies" and had a "McCain/Palin" bumper sticker--I81 Virginia
