Great Moments in Editing and Signage

Happy Fourth of July! I thought about writing an Independence Day-themed post today, but given the state of the nation, anything I'd have written would be too dark for the all-American holiday, so we'll just stick with the rotation and bring up the month's first set of Great Moments in Editing and Signage. Shall we go?

I wonder if it must be kept refrigerated ...

Um ... okay ...

I think they probably meant "retinal," but what do I know? ...

Some editorial assistant who's probably looking for a new job just couldn't pass up writing this headline (I think my British friend Ross, the donkey rescue volunteer, can appreciate it) ...

I think I'd rather have the Soylent Green, thanks ...

It was nice of them to make the linguistic effort ...

Oh, the horror! ...

It's nice that the ladies can drop in for a bite to eat after taking care of business ...

It's quite an advertising come-on ...

So, where else would you wear it? ...

And that's it for our Fourth-of-July edition of Great Moments ... I hope it gave you a bit of a lift in these trying times.

Have a happy holiday, drink responsibly, be careful with the fireworks, and come back tomorrow - preferably with all your digits still attached - for a Cartoon Saturday that promises to be a big hit ... if you're a piñata, that is.

More thoughts then.
