Random Thoughts From Today's Passing Scenery IV  

Posted by revinboots (aka Steve Barckholtz)

  • Yesterday at lunch we remembered to ask for a not spicy chicken dish! However--you knew there would be a however--we forgot to ask about the fried rice which was loaded with all maner of sliced chillies... hottest rice I've ever eaten!
  • Observation of the Day (from two punchy guys in the back row of our 14 passenger van): "There are lots of Indians here," says Chuck. "Yeah," replies Steve, "but not many Cubans."

Signs seen saying--

  • "Body Freezer"--sign of the Mob... the Cosa Nostra... Jimmy Hoffa's last resting place...
  • "Browsing OK"-- maybe something will come to me later... it semd real odd and funny at the time...
  • "Toilet: Plastic Free Zone"--you can refill water bottles to sell water... perhaps there is a market for warm lemonade...
  • "Toilet To Way"--perhaps, we mean "Way To Toilet"... perhaps, a sign of dyslexia... perhaps, this could also be filed in the "Swing and Miss" category...
  • We saw real live oxcarts hauling straw and stuff... lots of them... two-up hitches... and even a four-up hitch...
  • Most vans like ours have a logo in the front window... some of the company... most of Hindu god names... seen today, in succesion, were: El Shaddai... Jesus... & Glory to God... perhaps, the evangelism equivalent of us putting a fish symbol on the back of our cars...
  • And, finally, the Chamber of Commerce has checked in again with this slogan: "My Town, My Pride"... placed over burning rubbish...
