Down the street from my office is a storefront that recently changed hands. The windows are all covered up with brown paper while they renovate. A couple of weeks ago, I noticed a neatly typed sign on the door:
Geox
862 Brodwey
862 Brodwey
Hmm. They can type but they can't spell.
This morning, there was a new sign on the door:
Geox
862 Broadwey
862 Broadwey
They still can't spell.
I'm putting bets on the next version being:
Geox
862 Broadwhey
862 Broadwhey
I think I know why you're the Magpie now. You're a collector of bright, shiny misspellings, aren't you?
ReplyDeleteWow. So what do you think it will be. A bookstore? he he
ReplyDeleteThey probably sell geodes, so I'm thinkin' the store name gets fixed next.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a shoestore, selling Geox shoes.
ReplyDeleteYes, I collect all manner of bright and shiny things. Like ribbon. I always save the ribbon from packages, and then use it again.
It may be the wine, but this made me laugh out loud!
ReplyDeleteBubandpie (whose name, now that I think about it, is kind of similar to yours) stole what I was going to say. So I won't say anything at all.
