Wednesday Words, odds ‘n’ ends

Got some of that Prairie Dog Food again, and did a double take on the receipt.

Passed a musical instrument store that was advertising “Amp blowout sale.” No thanks.  Reminds me of a sign I saw in Madison for a “Vacuum cleaner blowout sale.”  Could be worse.  Handkerchief blowout sale?  Tire blowout sale?

Passed a marquee outside a business that said “I look forward to a day when a chicken can cross the road and not have its motivations questioned.”

The Salvation Army store had a sign advertising:

LADIES
BLOUSES
AND 
BOOKS


I’m getting increasingly irked by people using “horde” for “hoard” and vice versa.  I guess I should be grateful that they are not using “whored.”
