Silly Signs 37: Why does this happen?

Posted by robertstevenson on June 28, 2008

Why does this happen?
Maybe somebody is happy he learned how to add. Maybe there’s a competition going on with OLD CUYAMA

 

 

Why does this happen?
Note to self: Next February 22nd - stay home.

Silly Signs 36: You can’t exit this road

Posted by robertstevenson on June 26, 2008

Sometimes we all just want the world to stop spinning so fast, so we can get off and get away from it all. Rob’s Megaphone has uncovered one reason why so many people have a hard time exiting the rat race.  Check out these silly exits signs:

 

 

What are cruise ships doing on the highway anyway?
And why are they being directed to the airport?
 

 

If the cruise ships use the airport exits, I guess this is the exit for airplanes. 

 

 For the quickest route, be sure to take the new exit 3, not the old exit 3.

 

 

Bus stop: wait here. But bring a snack, you’ll be waiting a long time
 

 

Exit south on I-95 is for off-road vehicles only.
 

You have reached the end of the world. You must now turn around.
 

I hope Rob’s Megaphone is one of your favorite exits for silly signs on the information super highway.

1973 was the year for strange music

Posted by robertstevenson on June 25, 2008

1973 was the year for strange music

Kiss gets their start performing their first concert at the Coventary Club in Queens, and David Bowie says good bye to ‘Ziggy Stardust’ in front of a stunned crowd at the Hammersmith Odeon. In music theatre, The Rocky Horror Picture Show was born.

For more about Music of 1973, check Here.

Check out the vids below for some popular offbeat music from 1973.

 

Monster Mash by Bobby ‘boris’ Pickett & the cryptkickers

Frankenstein by Edgar Winter Group

The name of the song came from the way they edited songs in the studio back then - by literally cutting and splicing the tape - they had the tape strung all over the studio - wondering if they would ever put it back together again…one of the group said - man this is like Frankenstein - and the name stuck!

 Walk on the Wild Side by Lou Reed

Some decisions are simply easier to make than others.
