thing or two I wonder about

[DREDIOCK]

I always wondered why a street would advertise the fact they have slow children.
And isnt it rather politically incorrect to call them "slow children"?



And why they feel the need to let us know they are playing



Personally I think all those signs should be replaced with these

LOL...I prefer this spelling:

The term cretin describes a person so affected, but, like such words as spastic, idiot, and lunatic, also is a word of abuse. Cretin became a medical term in the 18th century, from an Alpine French dialect prevalent in a region where persons with such a condition were especially common; it saw wide medical use in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and then spread more widely in popular English as a markedly derogatory term for a person who behaves stupidly.

If people from Poland are called Poles?  Are people from Holland called Holes?  And for that matter how would you refer to the people of Crete?

Are people from Tampa called Tampons?
