Hi guys. There's a new video store around town who also sells fried chicken. Seems they want to advertise their fast service. Guess what the name of the place is...
SPEED CHICKEN & VIDEO
No, I'm not kidding...

Hope I havn't said this before, but... Years ago I did a window splash for a hair salon called M1 hair salon. My curiosity got the better of me and I just had to ask what the name was about.
They said, I'm not making this up, that they wanted a "more masculine sounding" name, so they named it after the WW2 rifle.

Large sign on a chinese restaurant in Winnipeg:
Foody Goody
Foody sounds like the swiss word for butt. My dad who was visiting from Switzerland, just about died laughing when he saw it, he took pictures and showed them to everybody back home.

While living in New Orleans we occaisionally went to a place called 'Suds & Duds'. It was sheer genius, a laundromat with a bar in it. It sure beat watching talk shows while waiting for your clothes.
