Happy Easter!
notes from life in Southern California: 1. Surreal: when I drive to or from work, I pass a pizza parlor which has very strange slogans on their sign. This week's one said Eat More Pizza Right Meow. 2. Sinister: across Pacific Coast Highway from the pizza place, is the fundamentalist Hope Chapel. They have a much larger sign (forming, with the pizza parlor, dueling signs). Until recently, their sign said: Be Ye Fishers of Men: You Catch Them, He'll Clean Them. [for those who have ever fished, you know what this means.] 3. Cynical: now that Ralph's is no longer locking out its workers, I stopped there for some groceries. They were selling Easter gifts, including a cross made out of chocolate. [of course, I had to buy it, to give to my Jewish atheist wife.] jim devine

Re: Happy Easter!
When I lived in Kalamzoo, Mich. in the late 80s, we would see a sign on the road to Ann Arbor (which we visited often, K being what it was), advertising a Christian motel: Prepare to meet thy God! was the slogan. Hmmm, that's inviting. On the North shore of Chicago is a hopital called Resurrection Health Care (when ordinary medicare service just won't do!). jks --- Carrol Cox [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Devine, James wrote: notes from life in Southern California: I remember from the '30s a sign in a yard in the village of Millburg, Michigan: Repent ye and therefore be saved Electrical Repairing Did Carrol __ Do you Yahoo!?
