Flying Melons

No, this post isn’t about Dolly Parton. It’s about Malibu Rum – Melon Flavor.

While in San Diego, we spent the day at La Jolla Cove. The folks at Malibu Rum decided to fly their melon sign up the beach. Seriously, I haven’t seen flying signs like this in years (how 1980s!). It was so old-school.

No Touch Squirrel

At the La Jolla Cove (in San Diego), I spied this sign. Talk about needing to explain the obvious to people. But here’s the biggest reason not to touch or play with squirrels – rabies. These squirrels at La Jolla look NASTY.

Lust

One of the great sins. I love lust.

I spied this sign in San Diego. Who the hell names their business Lusti Motors? I’m sure it’s somebody’s name, but it’s a dumb name for a business. Call it something else. Who wants a car from Lusti Motors?

Taco Shop

OMG. We’re driving down the road in San Diego and found this sign for a taco stand. And the name of the business is “It’s a Taco Shop.” Seriously. Absolutely brilliant! I LOVE this sign.

Petco Park

In San Diego, we went to a San Diego Padres game at Petco Park. Petco Park. I’ll say it again, we went to a game at Petco Park. Petco. It’s where the pets go. It’s where the Padres have gone – to the dogs. The Padres currently rank dead-dead-last in the National League West.

No rational thinking sports team in America would name their stadium after a company that hawks dogfood. This is beyond lame.

The stadium (known as Petco Park…until Sandiegans wake up and change the name) is kind of soul less and lame compared to other “new ballparks.”

All You Can Eat Seats

How American? At Petco Park in San Diego (home of the San Diego Padres), they have a whole section of “All You Can Eat Seats.” Oh My God! How gluttonous?!

You have to weigh at least 200 pounds to get a ticket out there. I’m not a slim person, but the folks out there make me look positively buff and sexy.

Political Signs

I HATE political signs. I think there should be a law that all political candidates have a legal responsibility to pick up their signs within 48 hours of an election. We had an election in Pennsylvania last fall and there are STILL signs up. I found this one for Jude Paula Patrick last week.

Judge Paula Patrick’s sign is effectively roadway littering. I wonder what it says about a judicial candidate when she flagrantly breaks the laws like this.

Trolly Stop Ahead

I spied this SEPTA sign in Philadelphia. Here’s what makes this sign interesting – it’s probably 45 feet off the ground and is so high up that nobody would ever notice it.

What if you placed a sign and nobody could see it?
