Wow, you guys are pretty dumb. There’s actually a Dumbarton bridge in California and the Zeptember guy messed it up. It’s IdeaFarm.COM not .NET. I see their truck all the time in El Camino.

Dum Bart on Bridge!
Good one!

“… a guy atop a pickup truck waving a giant replica of a baseball mitt at the foot of the Dumbarton Bridge ”

Dum Bart on Bridge??

Sounds like FranchisePick is one heck of a marketer for the Simpson’s movie franchise. Don’t be so humble. You should take a bow for not only marketing for the big guys but also a marketing job well done! And good timing.

I see this post has made everyone real liberal with their language. At the very least, you’ve proven that sexy pictures aren’t the only effective way of slowing down traffic!

Doug: I haven’t been able to find a pic or reference to this promotion online. Could zeptember have imagined it?

zeptember: I’m sorry to hear about your health condition. However, have you considered what a great story you’d have if you got fired because of a dickweed waving a giant baseball mitt, and you ended up having to take the job sitting on the pick-up truck waving the giant baseball mitt? I bet they’d make a movie about you. And how would they promote the movie’s launch: dickweeds from coast to coast, sitting on pick-up trucks waving giant baseball mitts! You’ll be rich!

By the way, how’d you know, I mean, why’d you think it was IdeaFarm’s promotion?

Yes, there’s a picture. Note the right side description. It notes traffic speed westbound was actually 16MPH.

If you were facing work discrimination and threats to be fired due to a health condition, and got to work late on account of some dickweed waving a giant baseball mitt, which generated another warning towards impending firing, you’d be a bit pissed off, too.

Did this actually happen? :p I want to see a picture of the distraction in question.
