    Default List of Funny Sayings for Signs & Plaques

    A while back, someone posted a list of funny sayings they had gotten from an email. I have been looking for that list and can't find it. I'm afraid it may be buried somewhere in the 90+ pages of "Let's Do Some Plaques and Signs".

    I'm in need of one for my brother & sister-in-law. They hunt every chance they get, he is ex-Army Para-trouper, and both are very proud to call themselves "Rednecks".

    Some I thought of for him, but I'm not thrilled with any of them:

    Git R Done (his favorite saying)
    Here's Your Sign! (of Bill Engvall fame)
    Gone Hunting (which he either is, about to, or just got back)

    Help! I would love your suggestions.

    I am reposting to this thread. Feel free to add more!

    Others I created for Christmas gifts:

    "April's Showers Bring Mae's Flowers" (my mom's name is Mae & she gardens)

    Ok, so I finally settled on a sign for my brother & sister-in-law.

    It says:

    "Home of a Hunter & his Dear!"

    Here are a couple more I like.

    I wished the buck stopped here as I could use a few.
    I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.

    I saw a saying on a sign yesterday that I really liked, "if idiots could fly, this place would be an airport".
    Probably not politically correct at all, but my warped sense of humour enjoyed it.
