Members whinewine Posted February 21, 2008 Members Report Posted February 21, 2008 (edited) :horse: When I was on the road back in the '80s, I came up behind a truck hauling horses in a trailer. The sign on the trailer read... "Don't be what you're looking at!" :w00t: Edited February 21, 2008 by whinewine Quote
Members greg gomersall Posted February 21, 2008 Members Report Posted February 21, 2008 Steve the first was " If you think the prices are too high in this establishment, bring your wife in and we'll dicker." The second one which was on the back of all my cards was "Quality is like buying oats. If you want good clean oats you must pay a fair price, however if you are satisfied with oats that have already been through the horse. Well, they are a little cheaper." Greg Quote
David Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 Ok with signs and such.....I grew up in Dayton, Ohio where we had a dentist....Honest, his name was Dr. Payne!.....mmmm don't think I would be a patient of his!. Also how about a stock broker partnership named.....Plunkett, Downe and Hope? There's an honest broker for sure. Dave Quote

Members tazzmann Posted February 21, 2008 Members Report Posted February 21, 2008 ok, I gotta add to this one... My wife and I were going to our bank the other day. I noticed the building next to the bank was for a proctologist. The sign above the door read: "Rear Entrance".

Members rgerbitz Posted February 22, 2008 Members Report Posted February 22, 2008 I was talking to a farmer last summer and the only thing on his shirt in very,very small print was "Nosey little %$#er aren't you". He just about wet himself laughing when he caught me trying to read it. Quote http://gerbitzquarterhorses.com/
Contributing Member Denise Posted February 22, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted February 22, 2008 There was a veterinary textbook published with one of the authors as Dr. Blood. Honest. I personally have known a Dr. Cartilege, though the spelling was different from the tissue. I also know of vets named Dr. Best and Dr. Fair. I wonder how even the workload would have been if they were in practice together with a Dr. Good as well. In Edmonton there is a major cemetery in the center of the city. There is a small street bordering it with businesses on the other side. The street sits at a bit of an angle so an advertising sign for one of the businesses to the back alley looks like it is pointing to the graveyard. It says "Body Shop". Quote

Members Kevin Posted February 22, 2008 Members Report Posted February 22, 2008 I saw that on TV last night, it must have been on My Name is Earl. When I lived in Sturgis there was an actual Chat & Chew Cafe. Kevin Quote
