This post reminds me of the old MAD Magazine's displays of lighted signs that have some bulbs burned out ...
(lighted sign);
VISIT OUR SERVICE DEPARTMENT
(some bulbs need replacing)
SIT UR VICE DEAR
(Obviously, I'd never make it as a MAD writer ... but that's the kind of stuff I remember and your post reminded me of it)
LOL! Thanks for the reminder about MAD Magazine, knarf. I really enjoyed that in my youth. It brings back memories of an elementary school buddy who would bring it to school for us to look at and laugh about. He would draw some of the sketches and add his humor to them. (Very creative guy sheesh, I wonder whatever happened to him)
