A friend in high school had a Kilroy. It/he was a figurine of the head, eyes, nose, and fingers made to set up on a shelf where the nose and fingers hung over the edge; like the green one on the left here: https://www.worthpoint.com/wor...oy-ceramic-figurines Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Kilroy is racist. Why? Because everything is, and it's racist of you to ask. God Bless and Protect the Once and Future President, Donald John Trump. | |||

A friend's teenage son wrote it on our porch a few years ago. It was pretty funny just because it was so surprising. SIGforum's triple minority "It can't rain all the time." - Eric Draven | |||

Okay, I'll give it a shot. During WWII at the Kaiser shipyards they were mass producing battleships. Once the hull of the ship was completed, the rivet work had to be inspected before the rest of the ship was to be built. Mr. Kilroy was such a rivet inspector and wrote 'Kilroy was here' inside every ship he inspected. The crew knew then that the job had been inspected and approved to continued the build. So many ships were inscribed in this way that many of the sailors discovered the markings and remembered them. To be in such a location some had assumed that they were the first to get into the farthest innards of the ship, but then discovered that some Kilroy fella obviously had been there first. Few of them learned who Kilroy was or had any idea why he was 'here', but it was seen enough times to become widespread lore (and no matter where Bugs went, Kilroy had been there first). | |||

So this German inspector wrote in English? How cosmopolitan. God Bless and Protect the Once and Future President, Donald John Trump. | |||

I read that Herr Kilroy's sense of humor was quite droll. "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye". The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupery, pilot and author, lost on mission, July 1944, Med Theatre. | |||
