Be rich. Read.

From an article from the Guardian online
http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2010/sep/09/streets-atlanta-haiku-advertising

We've all seen the signs saying "We Buy Homes" or "Make Money in Your Spare Time." I've read them, even though I'd never call. It's like asking to be scammed.

Apparently a guy is going around Atlanta putting up signs that look like those, but that are exhorting people to do beneficial things such as "read to your children" and "dump your bigotry." I want one of the read to your children ones for the library. But I guess that's preaching to the choir. Maybe one should be put up outside the studios of the Jerry Springer show. (Does that still come on?)
