Some people complain there is nothing to blog about. Some of these people live several stories above this truly blog-worthy gem of amusement:

It’s a brilliant marketing ploy. The Internets have exploded with personal journals of the slightly immature. People who once would just have walked by and snickered can now snicker, take a picture, then plaster the picture on their website so their friends can snicker. Because the joke is less funny if you just crop to the words in question (I mean, anyone can put words on a background then fuzz them a bit), the phone number gets included in the display. So if anyone in the 770 needs something erected, they know where to go.
Interestingly enough, this picture was not taken in the 770. What this piece of equipment was doing five hundred miles away from its native area code is anyone’s guess. I know it’s completely reasonable that Williams just has a suburban Atlanta mobile phone and never bothered to get a local number when he moved, but it’s a little odd. What inspired this man to drag his…whatever that thing is to northern Virginia? Why didn’t he change his phone number? Did he actually change it, but never repainted his erector?
The possibilities are endless. To live fifty yards away from this, have a blog, and complain about the lack of bloggable topics is an insult to bloggers everywhere. Or perhaps just laziness.
Curse you Dixierauth…

Not an insult or laziness. Just a complete lack of creativity. Some people just aren’t as blessed in the powers of entertainment as your are, Dixie. :-P
