uniform resource locator

While on a long car ride today, some web addresses caught my eye. One was on a billboard at the Gallaher View exit off I-40. I know what it was supposed to say, but the URL could have been misinterpreted as Gored For Women. In the car, I read a press release for a traffic safety site that looked like Drivings Kills For Life. My macabre favorite was magazine article mentioning a link in honor of Memorial Day. On an unofficial Arlington Cemetery website you can read all about the Tomb o Fun. Their unfortunate abbreviation makes it sound like an amusement park attraction. The real site is here.

I too have seen the goredforwomen.com billboards here in WV and got a real chuckle out of the same observation that you made!

This isn't a URL but for the past several months, there was a sign just before Gallaher headed east for a rehab service that said "There is hope ahead". I couldn't help but realize that Toddy's was only an exit or two up!

I am sure it was just a coincidence, right?
