I'm displeased with the lack of parity of the quotation marks. It should be "Great" People Make "Great" Beer, or Great "People" Make Great "Beer", but not some haphazard combination.
It almost looks like they used quotation marks instead of spaces, because it's actually really hard to tell which words the quotes go with. Perhaps the computer on which this banner was designed had a broken space bar. Or they think that quotation marks are like more decorative spaces.
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

I've always considered Budweiser to be a “great” beer but this looks like a different brand.

I was totally thinking the same thing! That's really getting to me.

OMG! Soylent beer is made from "PEOPLE"!
