Just the tows, please

It's been a fruitful week for puns in the Twin Cities.  Shue's towing provided this gem.


Free as in boat

Everything you need for an afternoon on the lake.

Calm Down

Almost always good advice, of course.  But this sign is probably referring to the orange traffic cones in the background which mark Minnesota's second season of driving - road construction.

Whiteboard philosophy

I'm not certain, but I think a philosopher was in the Blair Arcade Building.

We don't need no stinkin' CRTs!

Like making things?  Enjoy playing with tools you couldn't afford to buy yourself?  Check out The Hack Factory.  Just don't bring your CRTs.

Karma knows about you

Found at Sara Cara, now entering its reincarnation without a retail storefront.

Post no ills


I wish I knew what business these were from, but alas, that sign has been taken down.  In memoriam, I will post no ills today. :)

Be ready for zombies

At the Ax-man in Saint Louis Park, you can pick up all the supplies you need for the inevitable zombie apocalypse.

Vintage scrabble

Nina's Coffee Cafe has been featured here before but I just couldn't resist.  Extra bonus points to anyone who calculates the score. :)

Because you never lose a pair

Okay, technically not the Twin Cities.  I found this at Deep Portage Environmental Learning Center where I also found that elusive white frozen stuff called snow.

Not even a zombie apocalypse

This sign promises that delicious slices of Mesa Pizza will be delivered even in the case of zombie apocalypse.

Sign editing with chopsticks 101

This meal now comes with one egg roll instead of two.

These waffles are very exciting

Eat a waffle and drink coffee on the comfy couches at Tarracino's.

The Little Free Library

Okay, so your neighborhood library is mostly free.  But there are no due dates here.  Just a cute little house and some good thrillers for your bathtime reading.

Hope you're hungry

Stop by Bonnie's Cafe on University for some good diner fare - and a little show of support during the light rail construction.
