Used to be a tiny pharmacy in in a tough neighborhood in San Diego, small cube of a run down little stucco building flanked by empty dirt lots strewn with wine botles and beer cans, with bars on the windows and big black block letters painted across its front which read S & M DRUGS. Whoa!

It's the nickname (Kinko) of the guy who started it. One man copy shop.

He had kinky hair.

"Fantasy"... I've seen "Cellular Fantasy", "Carpet Fantasy" and 'Fantasy Nails". I'm sorry, if that's your fantasy, you're pretty damn easy to please.

Grew up in a town with an "Olde Towne Shoppe". Still pisses me off just thinking about it.

Theres a Chinese restaurant here in Portland called "Hung Far Low".

It is such a landmark, that even though the restaurant moved a few miles from Chinatown, the original sign remains, and the city is thinking of ways to pay for restoring it.

Living in Portland has its moments.

No. My first car was an old rusty Mercedes. I nicknamed it "DasBoot" and it stuck.

Oh, yeah, we also have High School Pharmacy (!)

and a Pig N Pancake

So, the movie was named after your Mercedes. ;)

Theres a gas station in Bend, OR called the Towne Pump

Parents, shield the kids eyes!

Krispy Kreme irritates me.

No, I'm German. In German, "Das Boot" means "The Boat". My old Mercedes reminded me of a large American car that are often called "boats" or "land yachts". So...I nicknamed my large Mercedes "The Boat", but in German.

Now you got me started: a VW-Porsche mechanic not far from my house is called "Fix-Em Haus"

Your guess is as good as mine.

Master Bait and tackle. real.

How about Elephant Racing. wtf ?????

Places that resort to low-brow humor bug me too. Out here there's a place called "Sofa King" that sells love seats and sofas. It's pretty obvious that they named the chain that just so they could plaster "our prices are sofa king low" all over their trucks, signs, billboards, etc. Har har. Funny to a 14-year-old I guess but I find it pretty crass and not at all witty.

Same with any packing plant or distributorship that feels the need to put "you can't beat our meat" under their name. Yuk, yuk, yuk. Very witty, but most of us outgrew laughing at such things along with dick and fart jokes back in 8th grade. In the public realm, it's just not funny.

Kinko, kinko, the kid loving clown,
If the kids just love me back I'll never wear a frown...




Sorry

Happy Tummy Teriyaki

It's right outside one of the main gates from work. Just a really weired name, I think it's kept a couple of coworkers from trying it out.

I went into Whole Foods the other day with my Elephant Racing hat on. The hippie chick at the cash register said "Elephant racing? You mean, like, really?"

I was too slow to say, "yea me and some guys race elephants on the weekends down in Denver".

I just told her that is was a car parts company ;)

2 funeral homes in the area:

Gross Funeral Home

Wellman Funeral Home

there also used to be the "Pointe Coupee" Funeral Home in New Roads, La. that had a drive-through viewing window (like a bank teller window). The music would play, and the visitor book would slide out to your car.

There is a seafood chain restaurant in the North Carolinas outerbanks that is named Dirty Dicks. Their advertisement says "I got my crabs at Dirty Dicks" :rolleyes:.

I wanted to do that using "Eye Level Painting." "We paint what you see." (Don't look behind the couch.)

Cheeses of Nasaruth.

Dunno if true: heard of plumber disgusted with Yellow Page add success, changes it to Buttcrack Plumbing and business takes off.

That is in eastern Oklahoma if I am not mistaken.
