If you want to lead a secession movement and form your own country, the first thing you need to do is buy a billboard.

That's what somebody has done on a stretch of Interstate 44 between Lebanon and Springfield. The billboard, which sports a hippy, tye-dye-like background, asks readers to "consider a contiguous 5-state secession" and lists Missouri, Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Mississippi as the lucky secessionist states.

Up until a week ago, the billboard had "MI" in place of "MS," which was a problem because Michigan is not contiguous with the other four states. But Progress Missouri director Sean Soendker Nicholson tells Daily RFT it's now fixed, and the current incarnation is what you see here.

I would too, but I'd have to move two and a half miles back east into my home state, and I think my wife is allergic to Missouri. Seems like every time we cross the state line, she starts quietly chanting something about "rock chalk Jay-something-or-other." Oh, well ...
