Haha! I'd seen the instructions before the news report.
Top story eh? Quiet day in Austin then. I do like the end of the article: Quote:

But the sign saying "Zombies in area! Run!" really wasn't very helpful. Were they fast zombies or slow zombies? That affects one's strategy, after all.
And Nazi zombies? Does that mean they only eat Aryan brains? So many questions...

Maybe the signs should have been changed to,"Zombies ahead, walk briskly for your lives!"

Hacked highway sign: 'OMG The British R coming'
A hacked electronic highway sign in Lubbock carried an international message not seen much in centuries on this side of the pond. The sign briefly flashed: "OMG The British R coming. They R watching you."

People slowed down, but how many people stopped or turned back? That's the real problem.... and a real matter of public safety.. this time it was (possibly) a hoax.. but what about next time? All these people ignoring the warnings are going to get us in a world of trouble.

I just thought of the construction that's going on on that street. Yeah, it's less than a mile from my place and I just thought of it. I'm slow. Besides the fact that it's near UT and I suspect students, they've been digging up one side of that street for the past year. I can see zombies coming out of that. But if the city has to have an accurate sign, it should say "HUGE, HORKING MARIANA TRENCH WANABE HOLE AHEAD". That's accuracy.
And where the hell is Kev during all this? You don't suppose.... they got him?????? Last edited by Gayle; 08 February 2009 at 08:11 AM. Reason: had to monger a little fear

I wonder how many people got a chuckle out of that on their morning commute? Personally that would have left me smiling for the rest of the day.
I'm not saying that everyone should run out and change every road sign they can find, but sometimes I think folks would be better off if they didn't immediately focus on the legality of the event. Then again I have a really weird sense of humor and I'm slightly buzzed from my pain medication right now so everything is funny.
