You Like Speed? We've Got Speedy Retribution

       Two bits of language I came across today that caught my eye.  Out shopping and in the parking lot a posted sign:  "No Exhibition of Speed (Burn Outs, Racing, Revving Engines)...We report all violations to LAPD Direct Dispatch for arrest and prosecution."    Sounds like a helicopter overhead ready to pounce and take you in.  So look out!  

       And helping Connie shop for some clothes as gifts for women, I came across a handsome sweater, nicely made.  The brand name was "laundry."  Why would you brand any product as laundry?  I don't know.
