ROTFL! Is that a picture you took from your hometown?

Reminds me of this lighted readout on one of our taller buildings that is supposed to report the time and temperature. Well, the danged thing was reading 80-some degrees for days in the dead heat of the summer when it had to be at *least* 100. I guess they finally realized their temp gauge was broken, because I drove by one day and it read: HOT!!

Good thing I was at a stoplight. goofy

That's great!

How come us Massachusetts people don't get signs like that? Ours seem to be always on the time, the date, the temperature, or they tell you that construction is going on ahead even if there isn't any. Or they're just turned off. :rolleyes: And yes, they will say 20 degrees F in the middle of summer.

That is too funny. The people who program those signs where I live don't have that sense of humor!

Oh that's too funny! I wish they'd do that where I live! They're in the middle of ripping up some medians to accomodate traffic for a new shopping strip.

ROFL - that's just great!

Finally something to smile about when you're stuck in traffic jam wink

Remind on a sign I saw in New York:

"DON'T EVEN THINK OF PARKING HERE!" laugh

Bye,

Actually the people who put the signs up probably don't have much to do with it - someone posted about this on a weblog a couple of months ago, apparently he was driving past a sign and noticed that the control buttons were accessible, and hopped out of his car and quicky changed the message. On several signs... I'm not sure if one of them was this sign or another like it, but the picture looks vaguely familier so it might be that one.

Slightly later: Just remembered where I saw it and found the blog again. Not the same sign after all, apologies for the mistake.

Here\'s the one I remembered.
