Zen Monday: #74
Zen Monday is the day you experience the photo and give us your thoughts rather than me telling you what I think the photo's about. I also stay out of the comments box for most of the day, to avoid influencing the discussion. I look for a photo worth contemplating or, failing that, something odd or silly.
As I post each new Zen Monday photo I add a label to last week's to identify it if necessary--if I know what it is.

Petrea, envious of St.John's street signs in Pasadena, put up her own street message.
She figured: either I'll get fined or I'll collect some needed cash.
Fernando Fatpants knew there was more than one way to lose weight ~ and that was to give it away for free.
It's the old dope peddlar, bringing joy whereever he goes.
Someone got so hungry they ate the sign!
A step forward, notice this sign is not attached by nails. Still.... eye-litter...
Free samples of negative space? I'm afraid they are offering black holes. Very Quantum of them.
Gosh, after the diet, one is just a piece of what he used to be... per the sign's example.
Still-fat Fernando, seeking a refund, found to his dismay that a single missing letter rendered the guarantee null and void.
Ahh diet pills, now THOSE were the good old days! V
Eat paper, lose weight. A sure-fire guarantee.
I am zen empty, but clearly you have the A Team working for you.
ah, the old diet of "wrap yourself (or the tree) in plastic wrap!"...works every time, see, the sign has already lost half of itself!
I don't know what I thought was "zen Monday" about this: the "gurantee" seems to be for samples rather than weight loss, and what are the samples? Drugs, as Cliff Notes? How sad is that? Poor Fernando.
It looked to me like someone ran by the sign and tore off all the numbers except one.
I hope I find something less depressing for next week!
P, I can't imagine how you're able to fascinate, stump, and delight us with your fabulous zens, week after week. But you do.
I think it should have read "Lose weight, fast", because fasting is the quickest and most effective way to lose weight - guranteed.
I googled the wording and got to Herbalife. That organization's made a fortune out of its product, I wonder what's in it?
It wasn't too depressing, P. I don't know how you keep finding such strange and wonderful things to keep us amused.
Aw, you guys are sweet, thank you.
Bellis, did Herbalife misspell "guaranteed" too?
She fascinates, stumps and delights me every minute of the day. My only respite is in sleep.
You romannic.
ZZZzzzzzzzz …
I saw something similar to this the other day, it was for pills. Now I ask you, are you going to buy or even accept free pills from a telephone pole?
I'm not, Paula. But some people will, unfortunately.
