DOES THIS HIT TOO CLOSE TO HOME?

Hmmm... mixed bag at best.

 

I like stop signs, they make the roads safer.

 

There was a sign in Bellingham that I should have photographed, it's gone now.

A stop sign at an intersection. On the same pole, just underneath the stop sign was a "No stopping at any time" sign. Classic!

My favorite sign is on a New Mexico highway: "Gusty Winds May Exist." How Zen. How existential.

There's a sign as you're leaving NYC towards Connecticut that says

 

DRAW

BRIDGE

 

I can't help but want to whip out a pencil.

 

When I was living in Boston, I always dig the signs that said

 

MASS

PIKE

 

Always made me think: lotta fish...

As to the video, some restrict, some guide.

 

Then there's astrology. When people ask me what's my sign, I say "Stereo, with Dolby rising, and Moon over Miami."

About 10 or so years back on one of the routes from Austin to San Antonio, there was a U.S. Post Office along the highway in one of the small and very, very, very, conservative towns, where one of the letters had fallen off the big sign on the building, so it read:

 

U.S. PO T OFFICE

Do you have those markers or dots every 6 feet at the grocery store? They call it "Social Distancing" over here....another type of sign.

Yes, printed with polite requests to comply.

I think they are useful.

 

The head of the photography department in college had a sign on his door. "The beatings will continue until Morale improves."

 

I've always enjoyed that one!!!

I've never been that into sines. I usually prefer cosines, or even better...tangents.

Don't make my brain hurt too much. My background using Fourier is restricted to sines. My tendency to go on tangents is probably why I didn't do as well as I should have in that class.

I can confirm they do exist, especially after a few beers and a curry.......

Lol! But hopefully not whilst driving........

Whenever I drive by a sign that says, "END ROAD WORK" I honk my horn and yell, "I'M WITH YOU, BROTHER!!! END ROAD WORK! END ROAD WORK NOW!!!!"

In my youth, I appreciated the instruction on a sign at the approach to a bridge: "Open joints on bridge."

I'll never forget visiting a wildlife reserve in Uganda, many, many years ago where, as you got to the beginning of the park there was a large sign which read:

 

"ELEPHANTS HAVE RIGHT OF WAY"

 

As if you needed to be told!

My favorite sign:

 

Speeding fines may double when workers present.

 

Who is going to present the speeding fine if it isn't a worker of some kind? A volunteer who isn't working?

 

There is plenty of room on millions of sings to put the word "are" between "workers" and "present" and it would actually say what the wanted it to say.

 

It seems to be more than a Florida thing as well. I guess we should add "Promote illiteracy" on the side of the road as well.
