Signs

Emergency Jack

December 12, 2013 by Kathryn

There’s a hospital right next to this Jack in the Box. Or something.

Yogurt – As Promised

January 4, 2013 by Kathryn

This is the label on the case of yogurt I bought at Costco recently.
yog
Really?! Zero percent non-fat? So that makes it what percent full-fat?

MAXIMUM FLAVOR UNITS!

Rule Breakers

December 17, 2012 by Kathryn

I was surprised to see so many humans inside Target. The requirements for admittance are clearly marked.

Don’t Even Think About It

November 30, 2012 by Kathryn

So, I was driving in Carnation, WA, when this caught my eye:

I slammed on my brakes and backed up, giggling to an extent that Wanda was worried for me.

Why even put up the hoop? The poor teenage boys in this neighborhood. It’s like lining Wanda’s bed with marshmallows and then telling her that if she eats one, we’ll sell her to the Dursleys.

Not cool Carnation. Totally less than cool.

3T Ninja

September 14, 2011 by Kathryn

My mom sent Wanda these cute leggings for her birthday. I misread the label, seeing it as NINJA (3T). It may not be what was actually on the label but I think it fits.

Anaconda Opportunity

August 10, 2011 by Kathryn

This is by far the best road sign between our house and Billings. It’s possibly the best road sign anywhere ever. Who wouldn’t pull over at an exit that promises an Anaconda Opportunity? No one. That’s who.

I Don’t Think We Should Eat These

They might be worth something someday.

Calling All Mixed Martial Arts Fighters

February 20, 2011 by Kathryn

They’ll train us!!!??? This awesome sign appeared yesterday at a major intersection just outside of town. I saw the guy placing it there. I’d say mid-twenties, shortish, dark hair, possibly hispanic. I wasn’t paying too much attention to him. Then today when we drove by and actually read the sign, I wished I had.

Call for Mixed Martial Arts Fighters

Why do they want mixed martial arts fighters? What kind of training do they provide? How big of a piece of their action would I get if I signed up? I am over 21 and I do have a yellow belt in Kenpo Karate. I think I will call and see what their deal is, in honor of POTUS Day tomorrow.

Wreck-A-Mend

February 9, 2011 by Kathryn

Can anyone recommend a good Auto Body shop on the Eastside? I prefer something with a punny name.

We Know You’re Curious

February 3, 2011 by Kathryn

The women’s restrooms at the Columbia Tower Club in Seattle are pretty wild, each stall containing a large window that looks down on the city below. I guess this has caused problems with the male visitors. Now I want to know what their restrooms look like. Do they even have restrooms? Maybe what the management mistook for curiosity or interest was just the look of a man truly desperate to use the facilities.
