A local bank always puts up a nativity set and Joy to the World sign on a vacant lot in town. I really appreciae the remembrance of the Birth of Christ, but I don't think they have ever realized that the location is next door to the local liquor store, hence what we English teachers might call a "misplaced modifier"
Oh Hazel! I would call this a " well placed modifier"! Love your sense of humour and spirit of observation! Thank you for this post, it put a smile on my face and reminded me of a nice bottle of red I have been saving for some time…Its label says " The Chocolate Block" and it is really delicious ...mmm, just like chocolate…
Thanks Hazell! It's little things like this that bring the most joy to my world, even without the alcohol!
Reminds me of my favorite Seussism: "From there to here, from here to there, funny things are everywhere.". You just have to spot them.....
