Carts are Scary

Beware of electric carts sign

In Hong Kong, you not only need to be aware of the electric carts at the airport, you also need to beware of the electric carts. Those things scare the heck out of me.

I keep trying to NOT mind my head, but I just can’t stop myself.

Apparently, if you don’t like the food, you don’t have to pay for it. Yeah, right.

Close Enough

I’m in Saigon and I see this one at a little shop in the hotel lobby. Clearly they are getting really close to something, but I’m not sure what. I apologize for this and several others to follow, it really is way too easy to find goofy signs over here. Not as easy as China, but still too easy. Like shooting fish in a barrel (goofy cliche).

More Kissing Needed

So I’m in Minneapolis for the 2007 ITeach conference (canceled due to weather) and find that my hotel is only two blocks away from one of my favorite places called The Local, which is an Irish Pub. It’s in Downtown, or is it Uptown? … I really have no idea. In the back near the rest rooms they have a special Kissing Room (no lie) where amorous couples can go to make out. It is semi-private, which is probably enough for making out but hopefully not private enough for much more than that (although I expect to see a video on YouTube any day now that proves me wrong).

So I’m visiting my home town of Torrington, WY for a funeral and I see this sign. Apparently they encourage you to smoke while you are filling your tank. We don’t care if the whole station explodes, we are smoker friendly!!

Padres Dreaming

Padres DreamingJust sittin’ and waitin’ for spring training to start. The old Western Metal Supply Company building helps form the left field wall and bleachers at Petco Park in San Diego where the Padres play their home games.

Pitchers and catchers report in Peoria, AZ on February 16 while the rest of the team starts on Feb. 21. Ahhh, spring is in the air! (at least that’s true in Arizona)

At the 2006 MN State Fair, my daughter was enthralled by the side show with the carnival barker out front telling about all the wondrous things inside the tent. I was more interested in the cool signs.Sept2006 053
