The priest came by and was looking for it but he didn't really say anything. Anyway, that's one of the gillion billion reasons I love Moose so much!<br />--GooseGoosenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-43556869252870949462009-11-07T13:39:05.073-05:002009-11-07T13:39:05.073-05:00I'm glad they didn't nail a giant Christ o...I'm glad they didn't nail a giant Christ onto this cross! If ever I saw that, I'd think Jesus was resting in preparation for an attack by Godzilla or even Mecha-Streisand.Geoffreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18357719173715772046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-12237846732281070322009-11-06T17:32:26.350-05:002009-11-06T17:32:26.350-05:00You are right, Laura, about the similarities.

We declared the Illinois cross the winner because its closeness to the road just made it look so darned impressive from the car, but I bet they are made by the same company -- probably something like, "Ginormous Jesus Lovers.com."<br /><br />As for the Mormon Temple, well, the coolest thing ever was already done years ago, when some clever graffiti artist painted "Surrender Dorothy" on an overpass that you saw heading west right before the temple. The moms would howl with laughter every time they saw it and were devastated when it was removed. For a long time, though, it would come back, a lovely bit of highway pentimento that amused the moms through many a traffic jam.Roxie Smith Lindemannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06455529922082930949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-64730390613390167652009-11-06T15:54:37.990-05:002009-11-06T15:54:37.990-05:00Actually, what sticks out to me about these two cr...Actually, what sticks out to me about these two crosses are their similarities. They're both huge white crosses with similar edging and similar scale.This makes me wonder: is there a company somewhere out there that produces enormous white crosses for highway decoration? And if so, do they make other highway ornaments? Because I'm thinking that a ginormous white frowny face, right before the Mormon temple on 495, would be the coolest thing ever. Or a traffic nightmare. But the truth is we'll never know until we try.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17017230646666590233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-18449672255412419192009-11-06T11:38:48.573-05:002009-11-06T11:38:48.573-05:00Somewhere near that Texas cross (and nb the proxim...Somewhere near that Texas cross (and nb the proximate leaning water tower, which is more fun) I have often almost caused the car to swerve when taking pictures of the unfortunately-named Bushland.<br /><br />Thinking Woman and Roxie, nestling up together! Of course! They both look very content - and how lovely to have a new picture of Ms R.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09944835420352128990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-82380283964678687112009-11-06T11:19:23.429-05:002009-11-06T11:19:23.429-05:00All is right in Roxie's World because all of t...All is right in Roxie's World because all of the bitches are back SAFELY. Mmm, Moose, the Bitch in Chief and I are not sure how we feel about you taking pics at 70+ mph on I40, but those photos ARE great, we must say. And we must say how very overjoyed we are to have you home, and with Thinking Woman, too!!!<br /><br />WE LOVE YOU!!!<br />--GooseGoosenoreply@blogger.com
