I need to put a for sale sign up but my post hole digger wont penetrate the frozen ground. Any ideas?
I have a gas power post hole digger and it still doesn't work.

any piece of steel or re-bar should make a decent pilot hole in any kind of ground...

Nokia's "The World's Biggest Signpost"

Nokia wants to "make navigation into something social" so they took to the streets of London and erected the worlds biggest signpost ...

This signpost of Tōshō-gū Shrine Shrine, along the Sennin-ishidan, or "Staircase of the Thousand”, the farthest point to which ordinary people were formerly admitted, features the Tokugawa Family's crest of the hollyhock.

Nikkō Tōshō-gū (日光東照宮) is a lavishly decorated shrine complex consisting of more than a dozen Shinto and Buddhist buildings set in a beautiful forest. It was initially built during the Edo period in 1617 by Tokugawa Hidetada (徳川 秀忠), the second shogun, as a simple mausoleum for his father, Tokugawa Ieyasu (徳川 家康) (1543-1615), the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate. Ieyasu was buried on Mount Kunozan on his death in 1616, but according to his testament, his remains were to be moved to their last resting place at Nikko. It was enlarged during the first half of the 187th century by Ieyasu’s grandson, Tokugawa Iemitsu (徳川 家光), the third shogun. Some 15,000 craftsmen were employed on the construction of the Toshogu Shrine, most of them coming from Kyoto and Nara, where there was a great flowering of architecture at that period. The result was a complex of buildings with an over-lavish profusion of decoration, incorporating all the sumptuousness of the preceding Momoyama period.
