Signs from the Road

Heading back to Minnesota today, passing miles of cornfields and too much Generica. But here are a few things that caught my attention, for one reason or another.


Wow. How's this for a nonsensical business name? I think it's a play on Quaker State -- Pennsylvania's nickname -- which is also the name of a motor oil, and thus the lube... but did anyone consider the fact that it's pretty unappetizing?

Good to know that its a registered trademark, though. I'll be sure not to infringe upon it.


Also seen in Erie, Pennsylvania. That is one great logo, hey? I always say, a handshake says it all when it comes to business imagery.


Watch out, or that mean electricity monster will zap you when you aren't expecting it!


A new brand of SUV, I guess.


Shouldn't it be Park 'n' Eat?


Not as bad as Roasted Baby Vegetables, but ewwww, just the same.
