Confusing Signs
Because I’m sure you’re all sick to death of reading about my social life, I’m going with a completely non-personal, just amusing post today.
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!!

My favorite is the "We repair anything! (Please knock because the doorbell is broken.)" HA!

When my son was just learning to read, he was also just learning to use the mens room alone. He saw the sign on the paper towel dispenser: "Pull Down. Tear Up."
He was so proud of himself!

Well, there are enough people who act like they don't know they have children, maybe that announcement is supposed to remind them . . .?

Okay, you know it's a good list of funnies when you say to yourself, "This line is my favorite, no wait, this one is, no wait..."

Actually, it reminds me of how my students write! I should repost that list of student paper errors one day because damn, were those amusing.

Ah Word Whiz, you know we all come here for the juicy details of your life, you don't need to post something funny just to get us to stay!

Awww...Paige! You just became my favorite blogger today!
DP and I are getting together after work this afternoon. There was a card on my computer from him this morning - one of those blank inside cards. He'd just written, "WOW!"
See this stupid grin on my face?
