Saw this sign in Northern Virginia near the new Vienna, VA firehouse. It reads, "Great Rental For Sale - Full of Mold - Cash Only ... " Not a strong selling point in my book, but truthful.

Don't Jump! ... in an elevator.
Spotted in the Sunsphere elevator in Knoxville, TN, the sign reads, "If you jump, this elevator will stop." This happens enough to warrant a sign? Apparently yes (is there that little to do in Knoxville?). I looked it up and there are a number of reported incidents on the subject. This one explains more if you're interested.
Unusual Pizza Toppings
These menu toppings caught my eye at Rocco's, a pizza joint in McLean, VA. The menu boasts "every possible topping we could think of" which includes Lizard Legs, Tired Toothbrush Bristles and Sauteed Worms. Wish the food was as good as the menu was clever. Even my kids complained ... about pizza!

It's Not Victoria
I love foreign trips -- exploring new places, tasting new foods and of course, studying retail promotions and pop culture. This lingerie store is (I'm guessing) modeled after the famous Victoria's Secret brand. As beautiful as some Columbian women are, it just doesn't feel the same.
Per their web site, Women's Secret is run by and for women. Snapped in Bogota, Columbia.
'Tis the Season ... for Fruitcake
Spotted this in the Houston Airport last month. It's sponsored by Oxfam to generate holiday donations & gift purchases. Good humor (unless you're a fruitcake fan) and well timed.
"When you give a fruitcake, everyone goes hungry."
