Billboards of note:
- NO WHITE TRASH OR TWEEKERS
- Babies were born to be breastfed.
The "No W.T. or Tweekers" Billboard was on a private fence, in big bold red letters, with a big circle-slash through and around it. Very bizarre. Tweekers, I am assuming, are meth addicts. But White Trash - who are they?
The "Babies" sign was a sponsored billboard - we went by too fast to see who paid for it. The letters were white, smallish, and in the middle of a large black billboard. I thought it was an extremely interesting propagandistic ploy to get women to breastfeed their babies (one that I whole-heartedly endorse). I've heard that there is pressure on the government to encourage breastfeeding and that the US has the lowest breastfeeding levels in the western world; but to see propaganda like this up close -- fascinating.
On a side note, I also enjoyed seeing the woman in her light pink shirt standing outside of her light pink house.
I just looked at the clock - it is 11:11. Whoa.
Follow-up:
I gleefully hit "Publish Post", hoping that 11:11 would be my posting-time, but I see that blogger tracks based on when you start the post, in this case, 10:56 pm, not when you complete it. Bummer.

Good information...I should check into that, in case I see 11:11 again. I'm starting an 11:11 journal, to see how often I actually see it. My guess is several times per week. We'll see!
