The anonymous submitter says that this was found in the building that houses the National Institute of Standards and Technology which makes the approximation more amusing.
I've always thought the finger-quotes could make anything funny, when used more or less at random. Case in point . . .
I pledge "allegiance" to the flag of the "United" States of America. And to the "republic" for which it stands, one nation, under "God", with liberty and justice for "all".
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.

Well, I for one don't know what half a mile is, and don't take anyone seriously who uses clumsy old imperial measurements. Take that America!
I love this! Does that means if walk around the 6th floor everyday for a while, I can claim I walk "5 miles" everyday?
Well, if you're really out of shape, it just feels like half a mile.
Nice to see this ...
thanks for sharing....
