Ahh yes, but there is a liquor store nearby… (or was, didn’t spend a lot of time in that area when I lived there). Then again, Columbia is also the place where I saw a bumper sticker: “You can’t lick our Cocks!”, with, of course, Cocky the USC mascot pictured next to the words. (Considering that this was just before Holtz got there, my immediate reaction was: “Yea, but everyone is beating our Cocks.”)

The LA Times has a columnist named Steve Harvey, who publishes a column called Only in LA.
Today’s column features Tapeworm Road. :eek:
His specialty is signs and advertisements. I believe it’s published 4 days a week (Tuesday thru Friday, but not sure). Caution: link may expire soon.
I may have posted this before, but what the hey.
The intersection of School St and Faile in the South Bronx. There is an elementary school there.
We’ve got Conduits, North and South. Every time I see the No. Conduit exit on the Belt I think “You can do it if you really try.”
Oooh, I forgot my favorite… a billboard advertising stockings in Sydney (Australia), showing a woman looking at a run in her hose. The caption?
“Don’t let a little prick ruin your day.”
Where I grew up there was a school at the intersection of Rusholme Road and P Ave - Rusholme and P! We got lots of milage out of that as teenagers.
Woo. Woo. :eek:
Dr. Stephen Bender is a chiropractor in Rainier Oregon. 
In St. Louis, MO on the arm of a large crane:
Big Boy’s Steel Erection
In Atlanta, GA on the side of a van:
Moron and Sons, Painters
Somewhere in NW Iowa on a gas station/mini-mart:
Terry’s Pump and Pack
In Denver, CO on the door of a pickup truck:
Elco Drilling, Your hole is our goal.
There’s a sign near an entrance of a shooting range in Norwich, Engalnd, that says
‘No shooting traffic’
There’s a sign that I saw on Easter Monday that I’ve seen previously on the net somewhere. It’s a Mc Donalds sign advertising the next Macca’s which is at a town called Yass. The sign has the M symbol followed by YASS, i.e MYASS. Us Aussies actually use the word “arse” not “ass” to refer to the backside, so we probably don’t find is as funny as the Americans on the board may. I will be driving past the sign again tomorrow.
I’ve been told that a common version of this sign in Britain gets even worse:
DEAD
SLOW
CHILDREN
:eek:
I work a few miles from the intersection of Kent Street, 23rd Street, and 26th Street. Head north from 23rd and you’d be on Kent; south you’d be on 26th.
And I used to live a few miles from Hickory Ave., Dickory Ave., Dock Street, the three of which form sort of a triangle. I recently found out that Dickory Ave. intersects with Mouse Lane a few blocks north of Dock street.
I remember walking home down David Drive (which becomes Hickory Ave. when it crosses from Metairie into Harahan) one summer and noticing a pair of signs on a gas station. The first one read “Open 24 Hours” and the one under it read “Temporarily Closed”.
Somewhere in Lumberville, there’s a little store called “<female name I don’t remember>'s Deli, Bike, and Bait Shop”.
I never, ever, bought anything there. What if they mixed up the deli and the bait? :eek:
Surprised no one’s mentioned this yet.
In Bastrop, outside of the Austin, there’s a new building with a sign reading:
The “Dentists”
I can’t believe people thought of the name, picked out the letters, ordered them, and installed them on the building without someone mentioning that the quotation marks indicate they are not dentists, but rather have let Billy Bob the janitor loose with dental tools.
Near where I live: Coffin Road, Dead End
