DON''T TRY PASSING, ON A SLOPE, UNLESS YOU HAVE, A PERISCOPE, BURMA-SHAVE.
I'm old enough to remember the Burma-Shave signs along the roads of America, so reading "Burma-Shave" (pages 12-13) brought back some good memories.
Maybe, if he watches carefully, he'll spot more Burma-Shave signs before their trip is through.
