yeah, so....

it's been awhile. here are some funnies from our trip to NY.

The sign at RL's favorite childhood sub shop. I had to take a picture of this renegade rooster who has apparently ripped his own leg off, fried it up, and is serving it for your pleasure. I also enjoy the chicken leg necklace. Beware the Renegade Rooster! He will destroy his own kind and feed their body parts to unwitting sub shop customers!




Multiple of these signs were posted in our room at the swanky Howard Johnson outside Toledo, Ohio. They did have a coffee maker (minus the coffee pot. Details, right?) and a hair dryer, but you couldn't use them all at the same time. But what I really love is the use of caps AND parentheses. It's like simultaneously emphasizing and deemphasizing the main point of the signage.



More about our trip later. Good stuff!

Wow, that is some nice signage. I wouldn't have even picked up on the odd grammar, nice work!

That rooster is a bit scarey. Maybe it's trying to tell me that if I don't eat there he will find me, club me with his leg and cut off my feet for his necklace. I guess I'd have to have chicken feet/legs first....thank goodness for being plump!
