OK two more signs. These are both from 743 between 283 and Hershey.
The first one is a "For Sale" sign. It is a hot property indeed. The sign reads "4 Sale 4 BR Fireplace". Wow imagine, smores every night from the comfort of your bedroom.
The second one is celebrating a business with a long tradition. It reads "Celebrating 0 years. Oh yeah big celebration. We haven't made a profit and we are going into debt with balloons that say happy 0 years. Now driving by I can see the 1 laying on its side. But the other way is better. And if I ever have a business that just may be a clever marketing ploy.

This Is What Our Economy Needs
So yesterday I was mowing my parents lawn. I see this guy going to the front door. I stop the mower and ask if I can help him. The following is what I remember to be our conversation.
Him - Hi I am here to get your help so they can kick me out of the country.
Me - ???
Him - Just kidding, but I am trying to go on a trip.
Me - ???
Him - Would you like to know where I am going?
Me - Sure.
Him - Mexico.
Me - OK
Him - Now to go I need points.
Me - ???
Him - Ask me how I get points.
Me - How do you get points?
Him - (excited) I'm glad you asked. All you have to do is look through this list and pick out a few you want and the points are listed to the right.
Me - I'm not interested. (I try to hand him his flyers)
Him - Interest is what banks give you I need points.
Me - (more agitated) I can't afford it.
Him - I don't need money I need points.
Me - (even more agitated) Listen I have stuff to do I am not going to buy anything good bye.
Him - (looking sad) OK. (finally walks away)
Now I wish I had thought of it earlier but I should have taken him to the perfect place to get "points". If it still was available I would have taken him to the unemployment office. A place where people are surviving week to week. Worried about where they are going to get the money to eat and pay their mortgage or rent. I'm sure they would be happy to shell out what little money the have to send this moron on a pleasure trip to sunny Mexico. I don't know how banged and bruised he would have been afterward. Join me in boycotting whatever organization this is.
