These are instructions for using the office refrigerator.  My wife used to run a daycare.  She had instructional signs posted for the use of the bathroom.  Some times, I think that my office is not much different than a daycare.

When we were in HomeDepot the other day I couldn’t help but notice the new selections of trees in the garden section.  I had to wonder if these were for late summer planting or early Christmas trees?  The way that retail merchandizing has been the last few years I wouldn’t be surprised at the early Christmas.

While visiting my wife’s cousin, she had this statue standing in her entryway.  When I showed the picture to some of my co-workers, they asked me if it was a statue of Saint Francis.  I told them that I did not know.  Since Saint Francis lived around 1200 AD, I had no idea what he looked like.

One of our local office buildings is being renovated.  And, it appears that they are adding new balconies.  Time will tell I guess.

Sorting returnable bottles and cans from trash can be very complicated in the office.

While shopping in a clothing store, I noticed that there were three categories for women’s clothes; Slender, Curvy and Modern.

Now, I understand Slender and I understand Curvy but what is Modern?  Is that another term for Fat?  And what happened to Regular fit?

The Attorney General for the State of Michigan recently investigated the security of a prison after a break out last winter.  And, he made several recommendations.

Apparently, the local TV news team was having trouble locating any officials who would comment on these recommendations.  So, they interviewed the mayor of Ionia, a small city near the prison.

Now, the mayor of Ionia has no financial or jurisdictional approval for anything that the prisons do.  But, he did get to appear on TV and express his indifference to the recommendations.  And, the new team did get an interview from an official.

It is too bad that the Drain Commissioner was not available as it would have made for a much more interesting interview.

During a recent news report, the news team stated that the victims head is missing and that the police suspect that he was decapitated.

SUSPECT!!??  Do they think he may have left his head at Walmart?  Did they check “lost and found”?

His head is missing. Of course he was decapitated.  Hello!!

The other day, I noticed signs giving directions to a “Quaker Boot Camp”.  Now, I am not sure whether this is a camp for Quaker children or if it is a camp where you learn to make Quaker Boots.  Maybe it is a camp where the Amish send their adolescent men who insist on wearing black stocking caps instead of the traditional Amish hats.

Like automobiles, Amish buggies have fenders over their wheels to block flying debris from their wheels.   But, unlike automobiles, Amish buggies also have a shield on the front of their buggies to block flying debris from horses.  And, having seen some of that debris on the side of the road I can understand why.
