Wednesday's Wacky Signs

Not really such a wacky idea, truthfully.
A little parental responsibility is not such a bad thing.
But poor Mrs. Ginsburg, with her 4 little ones, can't go shopping on a Motzoei Shabbos unless Mr. Ginsburg comes along.....

I doubt they would enforce this rule against a woman with a 7 year old, a 4 year old, and 2 infants in their stroller.

They mean teenagers, but legally can't probably single them out so blatantly.

The worse part about it is that MR. Ginsburg has to go shopping also.

WAdsworth3 said...

Hopefully Mr. Ginsburg can convince his wife to go down the street to the Waterways shops, where he could take a couple of kids to hang out in one of the many kosher stores.

At times like this, Aventura is quite appealing.

WAdsworth3- I always had a question for you why do you capitalize the A also why don't spell it Wadsworth3?

LOL! Yekke Wannabe!
Your age is showing ;)
I'll let WAdsworth3 take this one himself, or you can ask me when you come and volunteer today!

WAdsworth3? Care to explain for all the other young'uns who may be too shy to ask ;)

Any SWinburne5 's out there?

formerly a heightser,
but do you REMEMBER what the LO stood for?
I do! :D

Before SW, wasn't it TO?

G6 said...

Don't think I've ever heard of TO...
Older people chime in here?
What did it stand for?

TOmpkins, which was replaced with SW5.

G6 said...

But Tompkins would be 8 6 ?
Not the same......

When they removed TO and replaced it with SW, the telephone company changed the affected peoples phone numbers.

frumcollegegirl said...

oooh i know this one. does it have something to do with phone numbers?

G6 said...

FCG -
It has EVERYTHING to do with phone numbers! :D

WAdsworth3 said...

Considering that that these days I don't remember phone numbers, i just program them in, this is nostalgic. For those needing more information, look at:

Great links WAdsworth3!
Thanks for doing the legwork.
I agree about the nostalgia factor.
Hearing the old exchanges makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :)
