Internet Gleanings XXVI, "Strange but Clever Advertising..."

I picked this off the internet, compliments of Ken Thomson

On the way to Nags Head, North Carolina from Virginia there is a sign for a seafood restaurant that says, "I get my crabs from Dirty Dicks."


On a hospital door to the colonoscopy unit: "To expedite your visit, please back in."


On a plumber's truck: "We repair what your husband fixed."


On the trucks of a plumbing company: "Don't sleep with a drip. Call your plumber."


Pizza shop slogan: "7 days without pizza makes one weak."


Sign over a gynecologist's office: "Dr. Jones, at your cervix."


Another pizza shop slogan: "Buy our pizza. We knead the dough."


At a tire shop: "Invite us to your next blowout."


Door of a plastic surgeon's office: "Hello. Can we pick your nose?"


At a towing company: "We don't charge an arm and a leg. We want tows."


On a taxidermist's window: "We really know our stuff."


In a podiatrist's office: "Time wounds all heels."


At a car dealership: "The best way to get back on your feet -- miss a car payment."


At the electric company: "We would be de-lighted if you pay your bill. However, if you don't, you will be."


In a restaurant window: "Don't stand there and be hungry. Come on in and get fed up."


In the front yard of a funeral home: "Drive carefully. We'll wait."


At a propane filling station: "Tank heaven for little grills."


And don't forget the sign at a radiator shop: "Best place in town to take a leak."
