If these were two separate signs, it wouldn’t be so funny. But when you put them together like this, you wonder what kind of rest rooms these are.
Funny Sign: Rest Rooms Fasten Seat Belts
Sign: Falling Can Be Deadly
This is a serious sign about a “dangerous drop off”. It even points out that “Falling Can Be Deadly” with a picture of a person falling off a cliff.
Okay, the signs make their point. I’m going to stay on the trail.
Funny Sign: Not Getting To Work On Time
The sign says “You’ll Never Get to Work On Time HaHa!!”.
Not only is it saying you’ll be late for work. But it is laughing at you with the “HaHa” and two exclamation marks.
Someone sure has a sense of humor.
Funny Sign: Do not climb on the lion
This sign says “Do no climb on the lion”. Don’t worry. I wasn’t planning on it.
Funny Sign: Cars will be launched
The sign says, “No parking on wharf. Cars will be launched”. You mean into the river?
Funny sign: Exit and Pass Out
I wonder exit from what that you would pass out. Apparantly at Chester Zoo.
Peculiar Sign
This is a peculiar sign. Literally, that is what it says…
Apparently, there is a town called Peculiar Missouri, whose website is CityOfPeculiar.com
Elderly People Street Sign
Hmm… Interesting. I’ve never seen this sign before. But then, I’ve never lived in the UK (which is where this sign was shot).
I categorized this photo under “Interesting”. I did not categorized this photo under the “Fun” category, as it is not nice to make fun of elderly people (That might be me someday).
Joining Traffic – Misspelled Sign
I knew the first word looked kind-of funny. Maybe after they finish construction on the roadway, they can fix the spelling of the sign.
Many Ways to Play “The Swan”
The Swan, or Le Cygne in French, is a musical piece composed by French composer Charles-Camille Saint-Saëns. It is one movement as part of his larger work The Carnival of the Animals which was completed in 1886.
Here in this YouTube video, you see master cellist Yo-Yo Ma perform a piece called The Swan. It is classically performed on the cello.
Now here in this other YouTube video, you see that it is possible to play The Swan using a bicycle pump. Yes, a bicycle pump. And he did a good job at it too.
Do you think Charles-Camille Saint-Saëns would roll over in his grave if he saw that? After all, Wikipedia did say that …
“Saint-Saëns forbade complete performances of it [The Carnival of the Animals The Carnival of the Animals] shortly after its première, allowing only one movement, Le cygne (The Swan) for cello and two pianos, to be published in his lifetime.” [source]
Here is an amazing performance of The Swan using bells (and piano).
Here, The Swan is performed on trumpet and piano.
Here, played on flute and harp.
And on guitar and flute.
The Swan seem to sound good with a duet of a wind and string instruments.
