Super signage sightings: clever, funny-to-me, misspelled or grammatically incorrect signs of all kinds. Now, in the interest of full disclosure here, I'm NO grammar expert (clearly). Still, with some of this stuff, even I can tell it's wrong. Hope you enjoy, and possibly (even inadvertently), learn something. Also, if you have pictures of your own (originals only) that you'd like to share, please send them to me at: signagepics@gmail.com. Thank you!
