signs of signs

Recently while driving I happened to see this on a sign in front of a floral shop...
Patience my friend
Flowers will come


That felt inspiring... more so that the cheesy church signs I often see (i.e. "Our Sundays Are Better Than Baskin Robbins!").

Seen any good signs lately? Literally or metaphorically?

Check out http://www.thecarconnection.com/Extras/Contests/TCCs_Wild_Weird_and_Wacky_Street_Names_Contest.S207.A9766.html. My favorite is the two connected street signs that say "Nixon Bluett". Pretty funny!

All of a sudden, my husband started bringing me flowers on a regular basis. I am thrilled, of course. And I don't spend time wondering, what's he done that he thinks he needs to bring me flowers?

On his way to work, I noticed a new billboard has been put up by our flower market gallery shop - or something like that.

It says, "Wife Insurance."

Hmmm- Enough said!

do fortune cookies count?

It is easier to resist at the beginning than at the end

My favorite fortune cookie reads:

"Help! I'm stuck in a fortune cookie factory!"

On a wall above a drinking fountain...

"Water not suitable for drinking."

The bad thing was, the sign was there in a very permanent way... but the water was still on.
