Give us a sign, Lord!

Many of the signs and billboards in the Orlando area were no match for Hurricane Charley. However, one billboard resisted the 100-mile per hour winds of the eye wall of the storm. While the billboard still stands, the advertisement that was there when Hurricane Charley hit was peeled back to reveal an earlier message. When the sun rose the next morning on Sand Lake Road in Orlando the words on the billboard clearly read:

    I still think those were some of the best billboard ads ever. And of course, the coincidence of that surviving is just eerie.

    It’s kinda like James Caviezel getting struck by lightning while filming The Passion.

    I thought those reports were hilarious when I read about them — nothing against Jim, but oh, how perfect!
