Here are a couple of pictures of the finished product.

I went with a Satin Shell White from Rust-Oleum because I couldn't find the yellow color at either of the two Home Depots I had checked at over the weekend.

Of course last night I had to visit a third Home Depot because I had to repair a leaky sink and just for fun I checked the paint section and of course they had the exact color in the Painters Touch formula that I use a lot.

I prefer my virgins to be of the opposite sex.

What makes you think they weren't? <vbg> Just 'cause they had beards? Maybe that's why Muslim women wear those veils

...

Interestingly, I almost posted to this thread earlier today. I felt the need to say "she-hod"

I remember that old axiom, "Geehodders can't be choosers." With their bizarro-type logic, I don't think it matters to them.

Mocking al-Qaeda is great! I'm all for it! And the Gee'hod, like its Groonie stablemates, does an excellent job of poking impolite, irreverent fun! (Ya gotta love those details! ) But that doesn't make it a challenge to political correctness. Look, I know that I'm quibbling about a totally unimportant point (something that has rarely been done on YORF ). Seriously, how does mocking OBL and jihadist terrorists/murderers/cowards/scum in general constitute a challenge either to censorship (self- or coerced) or to any pressure to hew to a party line?

I think the next Groonie needs to be a hillbilly version, the Yee'haw!

One decal for sure needs to say, "Hey, everybody, watch this!"
