Gateway Project into direct action, without the use of fancy fonts and lamination. Sadly the sign was gone this morning but maybe it’s just been wheeled to another location. Has anyone out there seen it?

The sign of a [big fat] liar

A week and a half ago, the sign provided much diversionary amusement to some of us who were at an espresso bar to watch some English soccer. At the aft end of the fellow’s rig, he had a sign endorsing the Green Party.

On the same theme, but a different sign, here’s a link to a sign I photographed last week at Venables and Vernon. Someone has pasted the mug shot of the aforementioned BFL onto a graffitied real estate sale sign for an empty lot in East Van......which somehow perfectly represents the entire political and social reality of life in BC. I like to think of it as found art.

Out and about

12:23 I just saw the BIG FAT LIAR sign travelling as fast as possible to the “liars” lair in Kitsilano to parade around his BIG FAT SIGN in front of the BIG FAT LIAR’s office…right by Jeremiah’s ( a good place to spy on the BIG FAT LIAR).

travelling liar

This man rides by my house everyday (I live on the bike route), pulling his big fat liar trailer with him everywhere he goes. Someone is staying in shape!

I saw him

I saw the man responsible today! He pulled his lunch (or something in a brown paper bag) from within the sign triangle and casually walked away.

On reflection, I laughed at your reference to fonts, Patty: it’s like the old saying: “to a hammer everything looks like a nail”. To a page designer everything is in fonts, I guess.
