Signs of the times
Posted By Mike Orren in Square Pegs on July 2, 2007
I had to go by the Knox-Henderson Apple Store's Genius Bar today because of a stupid thing I did to muck up my computer o'er the weekend. I was a little early, so I had some time to loiter.
(Note: I'm closer to the Northpark store, but everyone I know says the Knox-Henderson people are nicer.)
First thing I noticed was this sign:

When I went in, they were finishing a big pow-wow and the guy leading it basically said that the entire DFW area is now pretty much sold out of Iphones.
I also noticed this ad at Current Energy next door:

You can get a less-fuzzy animated version that even puts faces to the butts here. It's unintentionally hilarious.
Now I'm no prude-- and I appreciate a nice heinie as much as the next guy. But this struck me as a bit surprising for a storefront sign. I can see the kids going next door to Wild About Harry's for an innocent custard getting real wild about, um, energy.

David Gouldin, says:
Complete with throne in the background! Thematic advertising at its best. And I have to say the reflection of Mike in the glass makes for fairly humorous composition as well.
