signs

Well, if the building only has (I’m guessing) four units total do you really want to celebrate that you only have two left? I love the false sense of panic it instills. It reminds of car commercials on TV.

I am always fond of the car commercials that announce “incredible savings” every single month. Whether it is Columbus Day Sale, Veteran’s Day Sale, President’s Day etc. They always say “this sale only lasts through the end of the month”. But then there is a new sale every single month. Do people really run out and buy a car/condo out of panic that they’ll miss the sale?

This sign has been up for months on U St. towards Adams Morgan. Don’t you think he’d change it by now, or does the mustache lend a certain panache?

I am huge fan of Red Rocks pizza. But I was saddened to see, they too had resorted to using a ridiculous sign to promote that they are open for lunch. You’re better than that Red Rocks.

I was all set to write how fantastic it is that our neighborhoods often host these super cool gigantic family reunions. It is really amazing, I’ve never seen so many beautiful affairs in my life. So I thought I was capturing a perfect example. But I suppose this is pretty cool too. So which is the good one – off the wagon or on the wagon?

Let me share a little secret with you all. I’ve heard of this great new Web site. It is called Craig’s List. You can put whatever you want to sell on the site for free! Amazing. It is a virtual world now. You don’t have to bother with scotch tape or printings or anything like that at all. And don’t give me the whole not everyone has a computer song. Everyone has computers! And if you are 80 and don’t have a computer you don’t need a weight bench. Everyone has a computer either at work, or home, or at their local library. Although, I am still looking for a place to unload my unwanted car for $50 cash. Help me please.
