“There are two insults which no human being will endure: the assertion that he hasn’t a sense of humor, and the doubly impertinent assertion that he has never known trouble.” — Sinclair Lewis

SignEdge: A New Dog In Town

Jeff

Most people who have spent a good many hours on the Internet, Twitter, Instagram or Pinterest probably have come across the very funny signs at the Indian Hills Community Center in Colorado.

You can see some of their work HERE

They are very well known among the “Internet literati.”

Apparently there is a new dog in town with a specific, animal view of many things in the world and they too have some very funny signs.

 


 

 

 

And last, but by far the least….

You can view more of the funny signs from the Carroll County Veterinary Clinic via the Bored Panda website.

SignEdge: Dirty Driving

Jeff

You might have read the story of my first off-roading experience HERE. I came to realize that there is a strong culture among off-roaders and they are fiercely protective of their passion for seeing hard-to-reach places.

Among those who share this hobby/sport there is apparently a subclass of women off-roaders who have a very spunky attitude.

While I was shopping the other day, a large purple Jeep caught my eye. The color was very unusual and it had a number of decals on the rear window. Among those decals was one that said “Super Girl.”

Upon closer inspection, I found the following attitudinal off-roading images:


“Buckle up I Want to Try Something”

 


“Don’t Follow Me You Won’t Make It”

 

And my favorite…


“Yours May Go Fast But Mine Can Go Anywhere”

SignEdge: A Day Without Coffee

Jeff

One of my daily pleasures is the morning cup of coffee. I enjoy preparing the brew, smelling the coffee as it drips and of course the drinking of it. I think it is fitting that this is being posted on a Monday when it may be just a bit more difficult for some to get started; coffee is an activity booster!

Our local grocery store has signs on the canisters of bulk beans to entice passersby and this one captures my feelings about the java!

SignEdge: To State the Obvious to Skiers

Jeff

When I first saw the sign below, I thought perhaps it was Photoshopped. I mean isn’t it obvious? Then I thought maybe it was an inside joke for skiers.

After further investigation I came across this…

and finally this…

For someone (me) who is not a skier, this was odd to see.

So I am beginning to think this is a real problem. For anyone planning on skiing, I now appreciate there is a need to PAY CLOSE ATTENTION!

SignEdge: An Au Contraire Wine

Jeff

Wine labels are really a new art form. With so many good to very good wines available at very reasonable prices, vineyards need a way to catch the eye of the prospective buyer.

I suppose a very bright label might spark an interest in one type of customer while a more subtle, but still clever label might attract another personality type.

As for me, I enjoy any wine label that is “different” which brings me to today’s SignEdge label from the Taub Family via the Russian River Valley.


Here is the back label which is somewhat hard to read, but I think you will get the idea that they are proud of David. S. Taub, the company’s founder.


You can read some of the history and story behind the wine at Palm Bay International.

SignEdge: Days of Covid-Confusion

Jeff

During this time of isolation and social distancing, there is bound to be a bit of confusion, but it is always good to keep in mind that we often had moments of confusion before the Coronavirus…


Some days I amaze myself. Other days I look everywhere for my keys and find them in my hands.

When I ask for directions, please don't use words like 'East'

SignEdge: Orders vs. Suggestions

Jeff


I'm sorry, I don't take orders. I barely take suggestions.

When you see someone wearing a T-Shirt with a message, don’t you often wonder about the personality of the person wearing the shirt? Having said that, I do appreciate and enjoy a clever and/or snarky T-Shirt!

SignEdge: Dying for a Cup of Joe?

Jeff

If you are like me and millions of others, you can’t wait to have your first cup of coffee in the morning. If the truth be told, I often begin to look forward to my morning cup of coffee the night before.

I know that there is an entire science behind branding and naming certain products. I am not so sure, however, that I would want to make this my every-day brand. How about you?


Death Wish Cofffee

All kidding aside, this is probably a great bag of beans. I mean with a name like that wouldn’t it have to be? Notice that this coffee is organically grown.
