When the highway dept. dudes have nothing else to do (most of the time), they need to be working flags on the interstate:

GREEN = GOOOOOOOOOOOO dammit!!!
STATIONARY YELLOW = someone ahead is driving like an asshole
WAVING YELLOW = the asshole crashed; continue AT SPEED
MEATBALL = You're the asshole.  Pull off at the next exit so we can beat the shit out of you.
WHITE/RED CROSS = Emergency vehicle in route; see if you can beat it to the scene of the crash
DEBRIS = Starbucks Boy left his briefcase on top of his car; he's risking his life trying to retrieve it
BLACK = whatever home improvement project material you twined to your hood is about to fall off
RED = Too many assholes out today; turn around and go back home

;)

Do or do not, there is no "try".

Dude, you forgot:

BLUE - Get the hell out of the left lane when you're going slower than the guy behind you!

For some reason, I think twine and the use of it at Menards is hilarious.  If this is weird, please refer to the sleep thread.

Please don't continue AT SPEED if you see a waving yellow while you are racing!  This (should) mean there is something/someone ON the track in front of you! 

The reason I say (should) is because I know that mistakes are sometimes made while flagging, and ones interpretation of "on the track" may be a few inches off the track, etc. However, I have seen for myself the difference it can make when the racers actually react appropriately to the waving yellow :), and we greatly appreciate when you do! 

Just my .02 :)
