On the road today

The things you see on the road...

I passed a billboard this morning, paid for by a hospital in Ohio. It proclaimed, "Voted a best hospital in Ohio, Again!" Just like that, with an exclamation point.

How do we take that? To me, it sounds as though they were surprised: "Hey! We've been named a best hospital again!" like they can't believe it themselves. Or maybe it's meant as if they pulled the rug over someone's eyes.

Then there was the gas station which proclaimed that it had a beer ATM. I'll let you sophomores out there dole out the punch lines for that one.

On the road again...
