Yes, the misspelling in the title is intentional.

The bad part? This isn’t some little independent gas station, this is a Mobil station with a dozen pumps, all with the same notice

What? I’m doing what this message said I should do :-)

I was walking back to my hotel after dinner at a nearby sports bar when I saw this and just couldn’t resist taking a picture. It also fits right in with this weeks theme at the Digital Photography School website, which is to only take photos within a 10 minute walk from your door.  The door in this case is my hotel room door.

I wonder if there’s some underlying reason why they wrote that message on the car?

Yes, I’m in another hotel, on another trip. I arrived home around 5pm Saturday from my week overseas and barely 20 hours later I was heading out the door again. As I told a friend on Twitter, at least this trip is only 4 nights and I’m in the same time zone as my family, so it should go fairly quickly.  Looking on the bright side, I’ll have some time to work on editing photos from Paris and Stuttgart for sharing online.

Some warning signs are necessary.
This one, warning me not to use the fire sprinkler as a coat hanger?
Not so much…

I think it’s fair to say that the average person would prefer to avoid Federal prison

A Federal prison hospital? No one wants to go there!

I saw this sign driving “home” from “work” yesterday and just had to go back later with my camera to grab a picture.
Really, how could I pass this up?

Speaking of Hot Wives, *click-click* for one of Veronica from the archives
Can you pass that up? ;-)
