"They're finally here, but not for long"


          

You all in the rest of Connecticut should brace yourselves for this infestation, which we've been blessedly free from so far.

Well, I guess it was inevitable...saw (and yahked) the first 1-800-GOTJUNK sign I've ever seen down here along the shoreline.

Today, a nastygram goes out to gotjunk corporate. If more signs appear, I'll call for a service in order to obtain the name and address of the local affiliate, and get the town to go after them.

If that doesn't work, then it's back to the old bare-knucks treatment I used to employ with stubborn spammers. No prisoners will be taken, nor quarter granted, nor a sign survive.

Trash MY town, will they?

Redstone

Hey, Redstone: Go get 'em!

We had those clowns in Denver a few months ago, but that's all we've seen. Really, they were dressed up as clowns or something, holding signs, standing in a busy intersection.

Call them to come pick up a load from you, and then look at
the expression on their faces when they see that the load you
want them to pick up is a pile of their cut up signs.

Better yet, stop by your local feed lot or horse barn and pick up few burlap bags (tow sacks) half full of manure.

Find a few mattresses and chairs scattered up and down the hiway that's fallen off the bubba trucks and place it all out for pickup along with the "Got Junk" signs

That way, you'll be eliminating three thorns with one stone. Removing litter from the hiways; helping dispose of a natural fetilizer and removing street spam from circulation.

Their national web site has name and address of the local franchise holders. (At least this was true several months ago.) I had to poke around a little bit to find it. It may have been in the "interested in a franchise" section.

P.S.: The company is active in Dallas area but their street spam has been pretty rare here.

Personally, I can attribute this to them not being persistent plus the area sharks are keeping the signs cleaned up as soon as they are posted. IMHO.
