Thomas Jefferson (T.JEFF.USA): Mad at co-writers. Won’t include the ‘right to sexy slaves’ in what I’ve dubbed the Bill of Oh-So-Rights.

So how about generating your own?  What message would you put in the Sacajawea image below?  Let the comments begin!

We’ll start it out:

“I know it doesn’t look like the Pacific Ocean, but we have time for some poker, right?”

“I’m lost.  Leading these chumps in circles so I have time to check Ovi Maps.”
(there’s some product integration + smirkable humor…)

“Just go down to that mountain range and make a left…. or is it a right?”
