In the Police Agencies, that would be a "Controlled & Dangerous Substance" DRUGS! Now CD'S might be more appropriate, wouldn't you think, for Jack's Religious Gift Shop?
My guess, that sign will change in just a few minutes.

WOW! LOL
ReplyDeleteActually, wouldn't "CD'S" imply the possessive? That would translate to 'Compact Disc's' possessing a 'while you wait'. That doesn't make sense. So, oddly enough, the sign was more accurate.
ReplyDeleteAnon 8:42 - Thank you! I am just sick of the over use of apostrophes! ...and quotation marks, too!
ReplyDelete"Sorry", back to school, folk's!
Yep, CD'S would be even worse. CDS might stand for something else, but lots of abbreviation/acronyms have more than one definition. Still, adding an apostrophe does more harm than good in this case.
ReplyDelete9:29...and exclamation points!
ReplyDeleteIf you read this blog at all, you would know Joe has little grasp of grammar and punctuation. No surprise thst he would make such a suggestion.
ReplyDeletechristian disc sets
ReplyDeletecome on people they are selling music cd's not drugs. this is a religious store. if the police thinks that drugs are being sold there they are not to bright.(GOD BLESS YOU )
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of Cds are they making while you wait? Isn't burning or reproducing copyrighted materials illegal? I thought you could only copy stuff to a Cd for 'back-up' storage purposes...not resale?
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of CDs? Probably sermon CDs for churches that don't have a burner or a tech-geek that can burn them for them.
ReplyDeleteAnd personally, I like CDs as the right way to imply plural compact discs, but... if you have a sign in front of your business, you know most of the time the sign doesn't come with lower-case letters.
I like Jack.
"CDS" MADE WHILE YOU "WAIT"!!
ReplyDeleteBOOK'S $1 "AND UP"!!
OMG people hang it up~ Enjoy this wonderful weekend. You could have been born in Iraq or worse....
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows the CIA imports the drugs. Isn't that why the border is wide open, while we are fighting the terrorists over there, so we don't have to fight them over here? Isn't that why the soldiers are "guarding the poppy fields, so the 'drug warlords' can't get them" ???????
ReplyDeleteits kinda like itunes: the customer purchases the music from Jack's, who pays a portion to the vendor for the option. Its on select music only, and perfectly legal. :)
