It's 100 Degrees. Do You Know Where Your Sanity Is?

lenseview — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 17:53:20 EDT

Funny, smart piece on a day in the life without AC, brutal temps, & some of the consequences and lessons learned. 1 tip: Probably not a good idea to go car shopping when experiencing the onset of heat stroke.

Can't Sell Your House? Sell Something Else [PIC]

lenseview — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 15:31:11 EDT

Not sure exactly what's being sold here & for what -- a plot for a very small spec house? But housing market/economy is tough, so whatever works, I guess. Odd spot for some signs. (FYI, nowhere do the signs direct toward any other address, houses, etc--they're sitting there, "as is".)

A Town. A Lawn. A Bush Shaped Like A Male Body Part?

lenseview — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 18:51:06 EDT

Amusing, odd. Just a neatly trimmed bush on a nice lawn in a nice conservative neighborhood. And yet....doesn't it look a little like something else, something (maybe) it shouldn't be? (Actually I know the town and this thing caused quite a stir, like the "owners" never knew what hit them.) [Not for everybody.] Pic & caption.

Speling is Overrated (Apparently). A Sign, Outside Top NJ School

lenseview — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 14:55:44 EDT

Not entirely fair to judge a school by a single mistake. Still this school system is considered 1 of best in NJ. Doesn't exactly provide a good example. In fact school system is noted for its attention to detail, competitiveness, etc. This sign must've escaped its normally rigorous Quality Control Dept. [Pretty funny IMO; also sad.]

The Burbs: Bastions of Mediocrity or...Not So Much?

lenseview — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 10:15:31 EDT

Author takes on suggestion (in linked piece) that standards in the burbs--education, food, taste, etc--are simply low. Is it possible to get a good dinner, see a good play, find a great school in the burbs? Is it possible to find cheese that doesn't come wrapped in plastic? Interesting, entertaining perspectives...

Smart, personal take on dating (& relationships) when you've got kids and the other half also has kids. Not exactly Brady Bunch heaven. Author relates challenges & rewards. Interesting, entertaining, amusing.

Crazy, Funny 'House For Sale' Sign. Desperate? Realist? Jokester? [PIC]

lenseview — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 17:41:29 EDT

Funny 'house for sale' sign. Desperate owner? Meltdown mode? Guy with a sense of humor? Pretty funny -- or nutty -- whatever's going on. Definitely the housing market is taking its toll...
