Happy Fourth of July

I was allowed home at 3:00pm yesterday, it was pretty rad.  I took the VRE home after taking the Metro from Rosslyn to Crystal City.  I think they jazzed up the Crystal City Shops a little bit, too, although  I wouldn’t quite put it in “worth checking out” territory, yet.  It was definitely a holiday weekend on Metrorail.

Speaking of images, it’s a little hobby of mine to take pictures of signs that amuse me with my cell phone camera.  Here’s another one (found inside a Metro station) that makes me proud to be an American, and I mean that both truthfully and cynically.

In Europe they have advertisements of half-naked women adorning bus stops and billboards, in the United States, defense contractors are more than happy to tell the public about their ability to blow stuff up.  When the adverts feature Jessica Alba pulling the trigger, we’ll know we’ve hit the big time.

USA!  USA!  USA!

    Actually, in Europe they have fully naked women on billboards. Giant ones. Boobies and all.
