SIGNS OF HUMOR

         I love clever signs, those that present the business they advertise succinctly and with a bit of language ingenuity, preferably tied up with a humor caste. A good example was the slogan penned by a real estate agent named Bacon in Raleigh, NC: "Let Bacon Bring You Home". That does the job nicely, don't you think?
     And it is surprising how many more there are once you start looking for them.

Sign on a panel truck belonging to a body-and-fender shop in Los Angeles: "We take the dent out of accident."
On the window of the Cambridge Shop for men's clothes in San Diego: "Pants 1/2 off."
An Ojai, California, spirits and fine wine shop was named "Fred's Attitude Adjustment Shoppe".
A mod dress shop in Corona del Mar, California, was named "Happiness Is A New Rag".
A large sign out front of the El Rancho Motel in Lewiston, ID, stated: "Try our beds for sighs".
Sign in a Texas jewelry store: "Diamond tiaras - $70,000. Three for $200,000".
Slogan for Gar's Bread (Washington): "We really move our buns for you!"
Evergreen Refrigeration ad (Washington): "Ask Me About Being Cool".
Harbor Airlines (Washington) ad: "Driving is beneath us!".
Note in window of water bed sales outlet in Lexington Park,. MD: "Your vinyl resting place".
Sign fronting an Atlanta, GA, restaurant: "If the Colonel had OUR chicken recipe he'd be a General".
Sign at the entrance to a Sperry, OK, cemetery: "One Way! In Only!"
Lastly, but far from least, Los Angeles signs on a health food shop, stating "Diet Aids", next to a fast-food luncheonette adding "Cheat here!"
