Road Sign False ADVERTISEMENT!!!
Ok, so, I'm out crusing on some uncharted(to me) country roads by my house and I come across this sign that says "Rustic Road." Its the first I've EVER seen of its kind so I'm like...SWEET!! and of course, "I'm taking it!!!" I get to the intersection only to find this is the so-callled "Rustic Road..."
Needless to say, I was a bit disappointed...

You're right it doesn't look rustic... I would think a rustic road would be UNPAVED!

And shouldn't there be at least ONE cow in the road? I mean, come on!

Did you drive down it? Maybe Rustic People jump out and you have the option to dodge them, or not....

I saw a similar sign Wednesday near Lake Geneva in Wisconsin when I was on my motorcycle. I thought about going down it just to see what it was like. I may go back now to see if it is like the one you encountered.

that's casue screen size has nothing to do with screen RESOLUTION
that image doesn't take up one third of my screen...cause my RES is set to 2048 X 1536
you guys prolly have 800 X 600
most web sites today are made for at least 1024 X 768

You obviously waited too long to turn. You were supposed to turn at the sign.

My lord, either you have a huge screen, or you have hawk vision beacuse everything is so small.
