Just to clear something up here,I talked to an employee of the sign company who put up the sign that read "Let's Get Wet"(with the outline of a martini glass in the background)that continues with the line "Bottoms Up" Gentlemens Club, contact Mary--with an address.) "Bottoms Up" is an obvious sexual reference as well as an image of people turning the glasses up while imbibing alcohol. My friend who works for the sign company talked with Tiffany, the designer of the sign who could barely stand to draw it out, given all of it's demeaning references, especially to women. The designer was vehement that she didn't put vote dry on the sign, as well as my friend who drove by and took a second look yesterday just to make sure this rumor has no merit. I myself have glanced at it four or five times, out of exasperation, and never noticed any "vote dry" designation on the sign. The only reason that I could see someone would slip "vote dry" on the sign would be that sombody
believed the advertisment was a good reason to vote dry.

I know something about the person who paid for this sign to be put up, and their goal was if they received enough applicants that they good indeed start the afor named Gentlemen's Club somewhere in the area once the county became wet.

Some have even called me telling me that Ralph Hudson had the sign put up. Yeah, right!

If people would quit trying to see things that they want to see to excuse their opposing point of view maybe we could read the handwriting on the wall and see the possible domino effect making Boone County wet can have.
