When you see the sign of a candidate you despise, you might feel like stealing, vandalizing, something to the sign but we don't because it's illegal, unethical, and it's counterproductive. Had this person not cut the head out of this sign, there wouldn't have been this post, discussion, and othe press talking about Gibides for Justice of the Peace.

I just heard that the Town of Gilbert was out picking up many signs around town that were in code violation of our running candidates, I'm guessing Mr. Gibides had enough trauma and was left in place! I am taking your heed, you just might be onto something --- <a href="http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=15zlc1c&s=4">http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=15zlc1c&s=4</a> Jay – this is very observant of you.

Both were faded and in need of an update. Of course, they still had their faces, and no one had yet drawn a mustache on them. Regarding your faceless person, perhaps it was a former customer who is now facing a divorce. ;-) A few days ago, while stopped at an intersection, I saw two bus bench signs with 2 different agents' faces, from 2 different brokerages.

It's all about name-recognition. Histerical!!! You're quite right that this sign could be even better than the original version. It's all about name-recognition.
