And it is going to the "Wild Man", too !

Staying OT, this reminds me of the little story from Dresden's communist GDR
days. For a big political event the slogan was devised "Unser Weg ist richtig",
meaning "Our way is right".

This was pasted amongst other places onto street car windows. Now one line, I
think it was line 12, went from the slaughterhouse (Schlachthof) to Tolkewitz,
where Dresden's largest cemetary with a crematorium is located. Folks riding
that line could hardly keep from laughing about that slogan used for this line.

But it did not take long until the authorities noticed how they had goofed up,
since their numerous spys rode the stretcars as well. And so the signs were soon
removed from all cars used on this line, which was good for another laugh by
anyone noticing it.

Nowadays a combination like that would not even be noticed.

Have a nice day down under,
