Ticka.....Irony!

#1 Postby pojo » Tue Oct 14, 2003 4:09 pm

I was driving home from work the Neenah-Menasha Y this morning, and I noticed something ironic..... A specialized Wisconsin license plate in Menasha: TICKA. Seriously....I was amazed when I noticed it!

I have some irony for you Shannon!

There is a restaurant here in Buffalo, the only successful resturant in this town, it is called Clark's Landing (Lewis and Clark, ya know?) Well anyways, I happened to be walking in there the other night to pick up dinner, and I almost tripped over a storm drain, and when I looked down at it, it had a company name on it (that I can't remember right now), but it came from Neenah, WI!! I thought that was cool, and meant to mention it the other night, but I had to be up so early I forgot to post about it and just went to bed! :lol:

Funny you should bring it up, Shannon. I have seen a number of license plates here in Arizona that remind me of folks on Storm2k. Don't remember a POJO plate, but have seen some DOLPHINS from time to time.

My Illinois plate for many years read WEATHERMAN2.as in also.

Still hangs over the back door from my garage into the house.

I'll try to remember to post other Storm2k plates I see here in the desert.

:D
I should have taken a closer look at the manhole covers in Key West, FL. There are sure a lot of water meters every few feet (four or five in a row) on the sidewalks on Duval Street, Key West.

True, almost surprised Key West is that much above sea level.
