Had a customer in the other evening helping me get a banner done for his band in trade for their entertainment at my wedding. He is part Japanese & knew of this website with loads of laughs. The humor is primarily presented on signs, so thought folks here may get a kick if ya haven't seen it already.

When my server starts cooperating again, here is one of my favorites so far (too much to see it all yet)

I love word games - National Lampoon Magazine used to print a page of flubs that were found by proofreaders and sent in to them. My favorite was out of a book by Joseph Campbell, in which Joe (seriously?) wrote;

"They were not they, for they one were. One was and not they them."

I want some of what he was using - maybe not that much, though...

I like to go into the 99 cent stores we have here all run by Chinese, and full of Asian imports - the labels are always good for some laughs.
