(Of course, MY definition of "normal" may be a little skewed.<br /><br />One day I was driving through a parking lot that was behind a market & a gas station. I assume the market was having a sale on fruit & had posted a sign. I must have transposed that in my mind with the sign at the gas station--MECHANIC ON DUTY--because I read it as NECTARINE ON DUTY. Even I was confused by that.fishduckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07334973392362918928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501852053743373610.post-80301701464252096852011-11-15T14:40:32.758-05:002011-11-15T14:40:32.758-05:00I've read things or heard things wrong so many...I've read things or heard things wrong so many times.

Back in the day (BJ – Before Judy) I had my own house and had a pretty long drive to work. I passed the place on the way with a sign that I thought said Computer Repair. Yep! For a year or more I saw the Computer Repair sign every morning and evening. Then one day I ask myself, “Precious, why does a computer repair shop never have any cars in the lot and why is it in a big, old building?” So I finally look AT the damn thing and it read Cabinet Repair. We don’t have a Block Mom per say, but we do have a Neighborhood Watch team. But they, I don’t participate, carry guns or anything.Coffeypothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02944074653548750642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501852053743373610.post-48894891082738471012011-11-15T09:38:10.215-05:002011-11-15T09:38:10.215-05:00Yeah the pedophiles would have a field day, well y...Yeah the pedophiles would have a field day, well you can be Chevy Chase and stay on that funny farm!Pat Hatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07745293224202430152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501852053743373610.post-38108124059585406242011-11-15T09:35:10.159-05:002011-11-15T09:35:10.159-05:00Ahhh...the days of coming home to a house with fre...Ahhh...the days of coming home to a house with fresh baked cookies!
