Have I mentioned my weakness for clever graffiti?

There's a huge billboard on my way to work. It's for some brand of light beer. I don't remember which. In huge letters, it says, "Lose the Carbs. Not the Taste." -- or at least it did for the first few weeks it was up.

Now some devilishly clever person has fixed it. They made a perfect overlay - exactly matching the blue background of the billboard and moving the period around so now it says, "Lose the Car. Not the Taste." I titter a little every time I drive by it. You really can't see that it's a patch unless you're right up close to the billboard and know what you're looking for.

Whoever did it, I want to give that person a gold star.
