I read about a guy that worked for the security department of a large retail store, his duties included responding to fire and burglar alarms. A side door of the building was wired with a security alarm, because it was not supposed to be used by customers.

Nevertheless they found the convenience of the exit tempting. Even a sign with large red letters, warning "Alarm will sound if opened," failed to deter people from using it. One day, after attending to a number of shrieking alarms, he placed a small handmade sign on the door that totally eliminated the problem: "Wet paint."

Good one Rick.

How are you doing? Haven't heard from you lately. Hope all is well. We are doing great here. Still standing and going to work every day. Staying very busy with high end projects locally.
Say hello to your lady and have a great holiday.
