I will express myself with civility, courtesy, and respect for every member of this online community, especially toward those with whom I disagree—even if I feel disrespected by them. (Romans 12:17-21)
I will express my disagreements with other community members' ideas without insulting, mocking, or slandering them personally. (Matthew 5:22)
I will not exaggerate others' beliefs nor make unfounded prejudicial assumptions based on labels, categories, or stereotypes. I will always extend the benefit of the doubt. (Ephesians 4:29)

very clever! :)
ReplyDeleteNo comments??? Are you kidding? This is the funniest sign I've ever seen. Well except "Perms and Worms," that is.
ReplyDeleteLeave it to the Canadians.
So I'm slow... it took me a minute to get it! Now, can I work that into Sunday's sermon... probably not!
ReplyDeletePaul, if this helps you work on your sermon, well, God bless you!
ReplyDeleteSuzanne and Roberta, the only thing funnier than "Perms and Worms" on Rte. 1 in DE is the not-so-clever "Fresh Worms, Hot Coffee" on Rte. 23 in Long Neck, DE.
You just can't make this stuff up!
I dunno my vote goes to the old Bass pro shop in Columbia, MO (before Bass Pro got trendy and built a Bass Pro superstore there.) The sign out front used to say, "Liquor, Guns, Ammo, Live Bait."
ReplyDeleteThat's funny, too, Kirke. (Hey, Suzanne, do you think that just maybe the Canadians who did Perms and Worms moved to DE.?).
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I get the battery charged in my new camera, I'm going to start taking pictures of the church signs around these parts. My current "favorite" is: "Be an organ donor - Give your heart to Jesus."
One of my very favorite signs is on a Conneaut Lake motel that has a restaurant and party room - "Have your next affair here."
ReplyDeleteWell as the Canadians would say, "Aya"
ReplyDeleteWell this explains why I've never been attacked by a black bear... I never leave the house without little bells.
ReplyDeleteAll this sign talk makes me think of one from near where my parents live in Tennessee. "Sad Sam's Fireworks and Beer Warehouse". I always wondered why the appropriate licensing agencies in TN didn't see a problem with mixing depression and large quantities of alcohol and explosives...
Yes, Jon, but you always leave your pepper spray in the car!
ReplyDeleteSomebody has to get a picture of Sad Sam's. That's priceless.
The one that always gets me every year is the Methodist church a block away and catty cornered from our church. Every year, they put up a sign that says "Happy Lent." Do they not even GET that's an oxymoron?????
ReplyDeleteIn my experience of Methodists - no. Sorry, my dearheart Methodist friends, but ya'll really don't get Lent as a Season. I mean, didn't you just within the past 10 years, begin to observe Ash Wednesday?
ReplyDeleteIt's okay. You do guilt all year round better than most Episcopalians do in Lent.
