Signs, signs, everywhere the signs

One of the recurring themes of my trip to Key West this year was running into funny signs. Now you have to remember that I took these with my crappy camera on my cell phone, so hopefully you will be able to read them all.

Hippies beware....you must use the side door at the Green Parrot!


We passed by this warning every day. It was on the gate behind a gay nightclub just off of Duval Street. I laughed every time I saw it. When I was drunk I would act out the poor victim getting caught in the gate with a really effeminate "Aaaaagggghhh".


Here is a sign outside of a bathroom that had the original "Men's Room" sign missing. Stick figures rule!


There is a serious chicken problem in Key West. This little buggers are everywhere and the roosters don't just crow at sunrise, my friends...it happens all day and all fucking night. Some of the locals are taking action.


And no matter where you go, bad spelling and grammar is just plain funny!

Yas - loved that Hippie sign as well. You can buy it online at the Green Parrot website.

Mel - missed ya too! I assume a stick figure chicken would taste just like chicken.

Liz - that last sign was up all two weeks and when I wanted to take a pic of it, it had been tucked behind a garbage can. I set it back up just to take a pic of it. Sick, huh?

Madge - you mean it doesn't? All along I thought "Sidewalk" was the one spelled wrong.

Anna - yeah, the whole "cock whisperer" story will be told in due time. Oh yes...it will be told.
