Elevated advertising

Tom Hoffarth carries a camera and spends a good deal of his time wandering around Los Angeles in ways most of us can not. One result is billboards from all over LA. A "blogging delivered" billboard in King City, CA He starts out with "The Los Angeles Luberators of Anaheim." (EZ Lube doesn't seem to have a problem toying with a silly — if sensitive — situation, I wish them well) and goes on from there.

My small contribution comes from a far different place.

On my way up to San Francisco in March, I stopped off in King City to get something to eat. Heading north on 101, I exited at First Street (which isn't really). I wound up trundling along a dusty street at about 19 MPH following a semi in some kind of warehouse district. As we slowly rounded a curve, I saw it. A flurry of thoughts hit all at once: an advertisement using blogging(?), that sign is completely out of place (that's a neat idea!) and I've got to take a picture. There was a lot to turn left into, so I did.
