Aloha Means ...

My friend Robin Hansson gives us a taste of the crazy signage in the land of Aloha. You could spend your entire vacation just tripping out on some of the stuff you'd see in Honolulu.


Downtown Honolulu


Ala Moana Shopping Center

What Would Hurt More?

Taking the claw hammer to the groin or sleeping with the ugly woman?

A hand-painted sign outside a New Orleans business warns away looters in the wake of Hurricane Katrina Thursday, Sept. 1, 2005. Ethicists and social psychologists said in interviews that rules of human behavior — including respect for others' property and for social order itself — dissolve quickly in desperate circumstances like the storm's aftermath.

Jinxy Goes To Moscow


The Jinxy world tour continues. Here's some Graffiti from Moscow, near the old KGB HQ. Can anyone translate?

Motel 6


See the ashtray with the no smoking sign? I think a better solution to the smoking problem at Tuscon's favorite Motel 6 is to JUST NOT HAVE ASHTRAYS.

The Truth Is ...

My wife spotted this in the ladies' room of Club 152 on Beale Street in Memphis.

Veggies

It seems there's a movement against meat in Winston-Salem (and I'm not talking about a bowel movement ... at least not yet). Thanks to Sarah L. for the snap.

Mr. Jinxy in Richmond





Mr. Jinxy strikes again:

"I snapped these pics this afternoon as my wife and I were walking along a pathway behind the Flood Wall on the southside of the James River.

"We climbed to the top of a viewing platform that overlooked both the trains and the river. In the river were three shirtless rednecks casting lines, and underneath the bridge was a homeless guy who had built a fire to cook his catch of the day. The air was humid and pungent with the smoke from his cooking fire.

"Train tracks run parallel to the river on both sides, though the southside is by far the more industrial and dilapidated.

"The plan was to walk across the top of the flood wall, but as we approached the stairs my wife and one of our dogs were dive-bombed by a squadron of angry wasps. Both of them got zapped once each.

"After that we decided to pack it up and go home."

Deep down, I think you already knew that.

This was spotted at Ray's Famous on the upper West Side in New York City.

Glorious


IndyGirl took this at the Melody Inn in Indianapolis. I think Ho is usually behind the hole.

Jinxy in NYC


Our man Jinxy was in New York recently. Here's what he had to say:

"The first (above) is outside the Chinese Consulate General on West Side Highway. Yogi was here.

"The second (below) is right around the corner on 42nd Street East. If you look hard enough you can see the Empire State Building in the background."

Made You Look


Our man Mere Existence has a sharp eye. Do you see it?

It's Not Nice to Tease


From our friend Armina, who took this picture in Maribago Bay Beach Resort in Cebu, Philippines last year.

I say this sign only hurts human genetics. Let Darwin work his magic. Tease all the sharks you like, if you think it's a good idea. You'd be doing us all a favor.

Piegon Poop


I'm not sure what a Piegon is but if it is anything like a pigeon you better watch out. This was spotted near downtown Houston.

It's about time the Irish got back into the pimp game.

From the Latin Leaf: "someone not a houston fan apparently. it reads 'houston, tx' and someone wrote with an arrow 'blows' "

He spotted this in a convenience store in Driscoll, TX.

Man from Bandoo


There once was a man from Bandoo
Who fell asleep in a canoe
He dreamed of Venus
Plyed with his penius
And woke up with a hand full of goo


I took this picture in my living room when the Christina Applegate / Cameron Diaz classic The Sweetest Thing came on TV. Note the Comedy Central logo in the lower right corner.
