Some people don't understand why road
signs and street signs are so interesting. Maybe that's because they
haven't visited myroadsign.com! Or, maybe they haven't thought about
the role that road signs play in our lives. We complain when they
aren't there. We laugh when we see a funny street sign. We find our
way to a friends house or to an interview. They also tell stories.
You may be able to tell what the town founders found important by
what they named the streets. You may decide that some people have
a complex about their address, when you see a mere byway a highway.
You may see people's senses of humor (the intersection of bow and
arrow). No matter how you see street signs and road signs you should
enjoy them. We spend enough time on the roads that thinking about
road signs can't be all bad.
Here are some recent stories about road signs. Some
are funny, some tragic, some perplexing. All are true (as far as
I know):

I would hate to miss signage current events!
