There Is No Cat

As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly

Or maybe you might need both

Pawn - Large Diamond Sale - Pump Shotguns - Choice $139

The silence here for the past week is the result of a holiday vacation to visit a distant state. I took a lot of photographs, some of which I'll be sharing here over the next few weeks. This one doesn't really fit with all the others, but seemed too good not to share.

Duh, it's obvious. Buy the shotgun first, then the diamonds are free for the taking!

Well, if they're smart, they don't also sell ammunition....

You should really consider developing a photography book of all of these unique signs since you have a good eye for spotting them. There might be a market for it under the "Silly Americana" category.

ralph, after living so long in a country where purchasing and possession of firearms is quite strictly controlled, i find this sign quite chilling. love the title you've given it, though!

What do you mean there is no cat?

"You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."

- Albert Einstein, explaining radio


There used to be a cat
