A Picture's Worth . . .Well at Least a Caption

Just a few pictures I've taken with my G1 over the last couple weeks which have struck me as humorous.

First up, from the basement of our condo I present you with possibly the world's most useless sign:

Apparently it is designed for the .01% of the population who knows how to read but doesn't know what a fire extinguisher looks like. I also have to wonder if the arrow is at all necessary.

Next up, I took this one at IKEA this weekend. Apparently they do not have a very high opinion of the quality of their merchandise (those are rugs BTW):

And finally, I'd like to present you with what I like to call "The Ultimate in Short-Term Solutions":

Guaranteed to completely solve your problem for upwards of 30-45 seconds!

In other news, I finally saw The Watchmen this past weekend. Overall after watching it I became convinced that the graphic novel must be pretty good but I think there were just some things that didn't translate very well into film. Still, it was entertaining and I'm glad I saw it. For once I thought that the "twist" at the end was actually pretty decent, which is a rarity in super-hero movies.

This weekend we are seeing a play on Friday night (a new play called Spring Awakening) and then heading up to the Wisconsin State Fair on Saturday to get our annual cream-puff fix, take in some pig races, watching a mooing contest, and undoubtedly spend a bunch of money on some useless crap at the expo. Might be the last "normal" outing we get to do before baby-time.
