Signs of the times: Barrie residents may have lost their homes and even some loved ones; but many haven't lost their sense of humor. Despite the tragic series of events; when a tornado devastated the Barrie area 10 days ago; the residents of these homes used some innovative and descriptive signs in their brave attempts to lift a bit of the gloom. One homeowner tells passersby he is Gone for the Summer; another has cancelled the pool party; and still another; with an artful taste for gallows humor; proclaims that We may appear dead; but the body's still warm.
