    Did you see that, RK?

    Yes, met Mr. RK for drinks downtown and I laughed when I saw the sign. It's not really the type of bar for hipsters...just a place by the ferry dock for people who stop by for a drink after work.
    Do you think they are referring to patrons or staff??

    Now that you mention it...I have never seen more than one person working. There was one girl there last night, served the entire bar by herself. Perhaps at one point make out sessions were accepted as payment?
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    So we went down to southern Oregon to Klamath Falls this weekend, and a sign I saw multiple times there and back was this....and let me tell you it freaks me out to see this sign....lol

    We have these all over the place, but ours conform to the laws of physics. :lol:

    We also have this on many roads. This one freaks me out quite a bit. Those roads are scary as fuck!

    PJ Soul, We have some dog signs around here kind of like that. Yours are better. The skater sign? That is great!

    I realized that I had a bunch of sign pictures that I forgot to post. Here goes:

    As I was shopping for Christmas items for our gallery, I ran across this sign. Hmmmm.

    So my daughter decided to sit. That was until I informed her that she was probably sitting in Elk pee.

    Dead Man's Curve in Cleveland. And yes, it is a 45 degree turn on a busy expressway. And yes, there is always an accident there.

    They were a tribute alright. The craziest pit of people I've ever experienced.

    I found this interesting that they abbreviated it as Emergency Department and not Emergency Room. Did they consider that a few of us would giggle about it?

    That funeral home sign is both sad and hilarious. Reminds me of some of the early scenes from Six Feet Under.

    But does the sign REALLY have tracking?

    From SD. I tried to find the picture of the shirt that I found at the thrift to go with this, but I think that I ditched it. It said, "Beaver Excavating." The two would have paired so well.

    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    It was also the three signs together. No blocking the box, one way below that and dunkin' donuts all together. The euphemisms were strong that day in that place.

    ...the yellow light has to remind you to slow down too. Or proceed with caution, or speed up and blow through it. Depending on where you're from.

    I would think you'd have to blow it, just so you don't block the box :wink:

    I have never seen one of these in use. Kind of hope I don't have to, but I have always loved these two signs. :wink:
