09/09/04’s illustrious band:
Cement Trampoline
Brought to you by a local bank.
While driving to lunch today, my Soup Group cohorts and I spotted the following on a roadside bank marquee:
Life is a cement trampoline
Now what the heck does THAT mean? Possible interpretations:
- “Life is tough, so give yourself a little cushion.”
- “The sign slogan guy got downsized, and today was his last day.”
- “It’s a Zen koan, dude. Think about it. If you figure it out, you’ll hear one hand clapping.”
- “We’re secretly promoting Bounce fabric softener.”
- “No more need to wonder where those 100,000 or so trampoline-related injuries per year come from.”
- “Made you look!”
- “This is where those ‘retired’ mobsters (the ones with the cement shoes) come to play.”
- “You should be thankful. When I was your age, we didn’t even have a trampoline.”
- “Clever? Or creepy? You be the judge.”
- “You don’t want to bank here until we get our Prozac prescriptions refilled.”
Today around the world: September 9 is Jeune Genevois (Geneva Thanksgiving) in Switzerland.
