On several phone poles around the corner from my office:
What sorts of things do you suppose they have?
Overheard on the way home yesterday:
Panhandler: Spare a dollar, lady?
Middle-aged woman: What for?
Panhandler: Just because.
Truth in advertising perhaps?
Perhaps they’re banking on people’s curiousity as to what the “things” are to bring people to their lawn sale rather than the neighbors? Or perhaps momentarily forgot how to spell “stuff” after a nasty blow to the head?
They could have also said “We have nouns.” (Been listening to the SchoolHouse Rock CD. ‘Mrs. Jones is a lady who lives on Hudson Street.’)
Just Because.
Well, just because.
