Trying to appeal to the highest common denominator. I can't give you 110% effort, but I will give you 107.4% effort. If you're a spammer and leave me a comment, I will make fun of you. I use twice as many semicolons compared to most other bloggers

More things I find amusing.



Chik-Fil-A has interesting billboards where it looks like cows are painting slogans extolling the virtues of Poultrycide. These cows have a good reason to be wary of what they see over their shoulder.



Someone forgot to publish how big both of the jackpots were going to be. That's ok, you weren't going to win anyway.



Mr. Petty shall not be moved.



This was a road side on the interstate through the mountains of North Carolina. It makes me wonder what the purpose of it is. Has there been a crash that took them so long to clean up that they had time to put up a roadsign?



I saw this sign at a public school in Kingston Springs, TN. I bet this is most every child's biggest fantasy.



Guess where I found this...



In a building labelled as a post office.



At first, I was going to say here that I feel sorry for anyone who couldn't afford anything better than Shoney's for their wedding reception. But that's not the route I want to take. I can just foresee a bunch of couples that actually had Shoney's cater their nuptials come to this blog post and start crying because I've just reminded them how lousy their life has been. I want to look at it in a more positive light.

Just think about how awesome it would be to have some of their strawberry pie at the reception. My wife could eat those every day of her life and be happy.

The dessert buffet could have some of that banana slices in strawberry jello.

The flower girl could hand out Shoney's Lollipops

Best of all, Shoney Bear could be the reception DJ.

*****

I'm going to finish off with something that isn't necessarily funny, but we're going to be going the route of one of those Wild Nature tv shows.



Apparently, Dragonflies, when mating, make a heart shape out of thier bodies. How romantic.

Surviving Pigeon Forge Addendum

Recently, I passed through Gatlinburg. You may have seen My Previous Post detailing some of the nutty things seen in the area. If you haven't read that, now would be a good time. Think of these next few pictures as an addendum.



YOU! YES YOU! Pull over and spend all your money here!

--------

Vacationers to the area sure like their pancakes, don't they. Here's a few of the offerings:




Pancake Pantry - Gatlinburg
Smokey Mountain Pancake House

Here's a couple that stood out to me:



45 types of Breakfast? If I thought about it long and hard, I could come up with maybe 20 types of breakfast.



This is my favorite. Look at that nice warm butter as it slowly drips down the sides of the pancakes. Mmmmmmm.



OK, don't look that close to the butter.



Wouldn't it be funny if the restaurant with crummiest sign was the one that had the best food?



Little known fact... George Washington and the continental troops after the Battle of White Marsh went through Pigeon Forge.



Look at all the fun those people are having. It's actually not that possible to have this much fun at Mr. Gatti's.



OK, now what?



A tragic accident happened today at the Roller Rink when a lady was skating at unsafe speeds, and then jumped over the guard rail and smacked into the side of the building.



If this is the Fleet Maintenance department, shouldn't they have an automobile engine or other car part on top of the anvil?



Uh, No thanks.



The Apple Barn has a mascot. His name is Apple Barney



This is my form of civil disobedience.



OH WOW
THEY WENT OUT OF BUSINESS
