I know we've had similar topics, but have any of you seen any funny signs lately? I saw one today in my grocery store that I had fun with. The following was referring to a meat slicer:

Never clean a slicer with it running. Cleaning a slicer with it "on" could lead to termination.

My first reaction was...now that's a bit dramatic. Then I realized what they meant.

This morning I read the label on a package of desicant in a pill bottle: "Harmless absorbent- do not eat." It it's harmless, why not eat it!?

That reminds me of the guy who worked in the pickle factory and had sexual fantasies about the pickle slicer. He wanted to ... oh, never mind.

Funny, Tinman!

Asa, I agree. I have seen patients, though, who take that desiccant, thinking it's part of their pills.

And then did they have to suddenly dessicate? Will Pepto Bismol help?

I hope headlines qualify, as I was taken with the foowllowing list from WS

I always like the medical ones, like "Hospital sued by 7 foot doctors" and "Eye drops off shelf." I am a little worried about those female mushrooms though.

While driving through the neighborhood today, I spotted this on a church sign:

Plant your seed and your blessings will grow.

I almost had to pull over, I was laughing so hard.
