(Note: Beth stole my thunder by posting many great pictures of the rest of Seward. Check out www.bethtastic.com to see the rest of our lil’ town.)
This is for you city slickers, where ‘ere you may be. In our little town of Seward, we have two banks caddy-corner across the town square with these little lighted signs. They tell the time and temperature, of course, but also have well-wishes for birthday/anniversary/birth celebrations. Do you have that in your big metropolises? (Metropoli?)Â
I know, I know, you probably have IKEA. *sigh*
Brad says
I think the plural is metropolipoctopi. You also should use the plural when you talk about IKEAs near here.
Lauren says
IKEI?
Michele (Brad's friend) says
You’re funny Lauren -- I liked that one. (IKEI)
By the way -- there’s a little convenience store, “Grandpop’s Place” a few blocks from this city slicker that DOES indeed put birthday and anniversary wishes on their sign, although it’s not in neon lights or anything fancy. If I think to take a picture of it, I will let Brad post it for you!
Lauren says
I think that would be a cool post! We should have a category called ‘Cute personal signs’ -- it could be ongoing!
Michele (Brad's friend) says
It would be especially entertaining if the cute personal signs had typos in them! … or REALLY strange names -- we could have fun with this.

Hey Lauren -- we have an IKEA in Houston if you want to come visit (it’s 2.5 hours from here I think!)
Karla says
Did you know that there are now 2 Ikeas in the Chicagoland area? 🙂 Ahhh, life in the big city…
