Signs are everywhere these days...
Some signs make us do a double-take; others make us wonder "What were they thinking?!"
Some of my favorite signs are school signs. Schools are a necessary evil, and education is an important issue--particularly among parents and politicians. I wholeheartedly agree with the need for better education. A Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Waste. Truly.

Church signs are another favorite, but lately I have noticed a marked change in their tone.
In days of old, a church was a spiritual sanctuary-- a refuge for the down-trodden, the world-weary, the dejected and depressed. Churches offered help and hope, and welcomed strangers with open arms. Religious views have changed somewhat with the times--and so have their messages...
Thank goodness, road signs haven't changed. They still give cautions and warnings, and necessary directions...
Traditionally, diners and cafes have exaggerated somewhat on their signs and billboards in order to compete for customers. Diners used to boast "WORLD'S GREATEST HOT DOGS" and "WORLD'S BEST FRIED CHICKEN". Nowadays, restaurants have a more honest approach...
***This tongue-in-cheek post may be a Sign Of The Times, but it is DEFINITELY NOT a Sign Of Things To Come--next week's post will be a Gypsy Wagon Update...
Sastimos! (To your health!)
