Saw this accompanying a press release from my employer, a new product launch to much fanfare. Shame they couldn't hire a decent photographer, epic fail.

Yes, but there's no point getting the blokes to stand in the same places when you've got a big black logo on the plane's forehead (or whatever the proper name is) that isn't central either.

(Edited to remove reference to the non-central window on the tow-truck, as that might actually be a desk with a screen on it, I can't tell).

Well spotted. The design has purpose, the truck construction is like that for a reason. The blokes... fail.

My collarbone X-ray from this week.... at the moment it feels like I've carrying a large backpack over the one shoulder

nono Prices are often quoted as "£#.99", so I can rationalise that more eaily than a fractional volume.

ahhhh but would one cent give you 10.001 gallons, in which case surely it's the thing to do?

Ooooh ya bugger...I didn't think to go back two years to check!!

And to those saying $40.00 and live with the gallons being maybe 10.001...that non-symmetrical decimal point is gonna cause some sleepless nights surely?!

When you leave the filling station, the gallons will be forgotten but the $39.00 will be on your credit card and bank statement for ever. hehe

Finally bothered to get a pic of this sign. I'm sure it may be grammatically correct but still bugs me whenever I walk past.
