I love this sign! I'm always buying pig things for a friend who is of Swedish heritage. Apparently pigs are a big deal. I have to find the right pig, not a too cute cloying pig. I'd have grabbed this in an instance and begged them to sell it.
It also reminds me of the "Dead End" signs in Oregon. In California there's simply a yellow sign that says either "Dead End" or "Not a Through Street." In Oregon they have signs that say "Dead End" with an inviting arrow. I couldn't understand the need for the arrow. I mean, if you put up "Dead End" on an official sign I'm assuming it's a dead end. I don't need directions to find it.
Your pig sign certainly keeps it open to speculation as to who the pigs are.
You sure it wasn't Orwell's Animal Farm ?

Hey, thanks Owen. Now you have me wondering!
ReplyDeleteThanks, TAL. I haven't stopped laughing over the Dead End signs you mention!
