Silmaril LOTR signs

i was at the airport umm yesterday! and let me say i'm glad to be back online i missed you lot! anyway we were going through to check in and there was a hige sign listing all the things you couldn't bring on the plane...
No knifes etc and i was very tempted to add.. No rings of power
.....No swords (reforged or other)
.....No staffs
.....No bows and arrows
on the bottom but my mum was there! there were others but i can't remember them!(all to do with the golden halls chapter thats were i was)
so when i got back i thought it might be nice to hear from you lot on other ways we could change signs
Road signs etc.
i did actually see a road sign put up by someone saying "There and back again" which made me LOL til by parents thought i was mad!
Anyway lets hear from you cause your always better than me!

"Free Palantir Reading, 2nd Floor"

"Wraith Crossing"

"Stop....you fool of a Took!'

"Speed Limit 20 mph when Council is in session"

Well, those are kinda dumb, but my brain is fried!

These are all better than mine!
I'm sure i can think of more after all it is my topic!
hmmm....
a)mined the gap (as in mines of moria)
b)how about one way systems for the Nazgul.
c)Sign on the balrog: Warning Fire hazard
d)petrol stations for ringwraith, instead of a little pump on the roadsign you could have a little black horse!
e) no frolicing on the grass
f) on the gates of lothlorien:
No sales persons
No balrog
And NO Fellowship (caused to much trouble last time)
okay thats enough your turn!!

And underneath the sign from bragolheledion's above post, there is another sign saying, "No lifeguard on duty. Swim at your own risk."
I can just imagine it. . .

This is true:

You know how everybody in County elections put signs " Vote for me " anyways...I was in my car when passing by a field of signs I see [ Vote for Bill Boe for School Board ]

If I get a picture I'll post it.

I thought it was kinda funny.

The fact that you dreamed up a dressing room for The Balrog made it great!

"Welcome to Isengard. Closed for repair."

or at The Grey Havens. "Have a nice day y'all!"

"Tonight on Pay-per-view only! It's the Battle of the Elves! Rivendell take on Lothlorien! $19.95 or contact your local operator!"

You know those signs which warn visitors about guard dogs? Eg "Beware of the Dog." or "We have a Guard Dog."

I -have- to get one made which says something like "Beware of the Cave-Troll." or "Warning: Balrog." Heehee I think my favourite would be, simply, "We have a Cave-Troll."

You'll certainly know when you get to my house. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Beware of Wizard's 'Pointy hat trick'

Beware of Halfling with sharp objects

I got this idea before I read a similar one, so I'm not copying anybody...
