let's share bizarre sign stories.

drove by a church today, and on their little signboard thingy outside, one of the things it said was, "will the real jesus please stand up."

i laughed for about 5 minutes. the other 10 people in the van were not as amused.

there's this tire warehouse on my way to school that has the most philosophical sayings that they put up. the latest is something about jungles and not showing old gorillas the paths? i can't remember it, but it's so much fun driving by a tire warehouse of all places and having their sign provoke deep thoughts.

there's a church by my school that (i assume) tries to attract young people by having their sign refer to current movies.
when the x-files movie came out, it said "the truth is out there- and in here."
when tomb raider came out, it said "Jesus- the original tomb raider!"
when the first lotr movie came out, it said "like lord of the rings? you'll love the bible!"
when the phantom menace got horrible reviews, it said "forget prequels! read the new testament!"

i can't remember any others. they make me oh so happy and sad.

because I'm too lazy to repost the story that goes along with these signs, just go read it on my site.

good to know they're trying to get the fiction readers into what they've got to offer.

anyway, on the 5 in washington.. there's a bilboard and it's basically like a little arrow because there is one side you can read going south and you can read the other going north. once it said "keep the us out of the un" and another time it said something along the lines of "your local public library - a great place for your children to meet child molesters!"
