It's The Smiley That Brings It All Together

Here is another from Captain Dr. "The Original Chip" Mac, esq.

I saw this at the restaurant next door to my office.  It appears they are fine if I just want to roll my cooler of tall boys in with me for lunch.  In fact, I saw a couple who were going in for dinner each carrying a couple of beers.

Editor's note:  I had no idea that is was even legal.  And back to that smiley:  is this really something that warrants a smiley face?  I would think that whatever they did to lose their liquor licence would be a little more serious than that.

Septober? Octember?

I saw this banner on a recent trip to the Quad Cities with Frankie (click the picture to enbiggen).  It's a bit hard to read but this sign proudly announces that this establishment will be having their Oktoberfest on September 23rd and 24th.  It looks like the Germans are following the lead of the retail industry and starting their celebrations a month early.  Septemberfest:  brought to you by the fine folks who sell Christmas decorations at Halloween.

When Easy Just Isn't Easy Enough

Isn't the point of the pop-top cans to eliminate the need for a can opening tool?  Now if there was just a product that could help you use this; maybe a Easy Open POP 'N PULL Extra Grip Glove.

At Least He's Following The Rules Of The Road

So I captured this sight with my dashcam (click to enbiggen).  Nothing to worry about here, folks.  Just a dude pretending his wheelchair is a vehicle.  If he got lights installed on it he wouldn't have to use hand signals.  I wonder how he ended up in that thing in the first place...

You Should "Let It Loose", "Give It Up" and "Surrender"

Captain Dr. "The Original Chip" Mac, esq. took this picture and sent it to me.

The only thing her T-shirt is missing is the phrase "Because if you do..."  It is hard to see, but she also has the pink headphones on to complete the package.

Editor's Note:  Because nothing is hipper than a reference to a 1987 Gloria Estefan song.  And if you didn't get the title, those are also songs off the "Let It Loose" album.

That's Just Crazy Enough To Work

I saw this marque sign recently (click the picture to enbiggen).  It's a bit fuzzy, but it reads "POSSIBLE SALES?"  Yes, it actually ends with a question mark.  I have no idea why they decided to ask the public in general if having a sale is a good plan.  Maybe including everyone in the business plan helps cement the goodwill part of Goodwill.

Safety First

Field Correspondent Bat captured this shot and sent it my way.  Click the pic to enbiggen.

There is road construction in my area and recently this showed up.  I assume this guy was put in the area to draw attention to the construction site and promote safety.  It succeeds at exactly half of its goals.  I'm pretty sure the "safety notice" shouldn't be so distracting that it causes people to stare at it and drift from one lane to another.  Which happens.
