Write The Fight Right
“The best way for a writer to learn what’s really involved in brawling, short of going down the pub and starting something.”
I went up to the local IGA independent grocer this morning to get some milk and bread. I was quite surprised when I saw this van parked outside delivering. I thought, ‘Well, that’s some thinking outside the box right there.’:
(Yes, of course it was actually “Mitchell’s Wholesale Provedores.)

LOLOL That’s too awesome!
I live for shit like this!
better take an extra $50 when you go shopping now eh??
Only $50?
I had to show this picture to my hubby, who immediately grinned. It just goes to show that if we pay enough attention, we can find something to make our day less of a grind.
LOL Dianne, i showed it to mine too.
He thought it was funneh.
And they deliver to hotels too! Now that’s servicing.
Cool huh.
My wife and I were eating at a restaurant once, and noticed a pickup truck parked outside that claimed to be from the “Steel Erection Co.”
As you might guess, this amused me to no end, and I’m suddenly sad I didn’t have a camera around at the time.
I later learned that the company name dated from the 1930′s or 40′s, and that they installed elevators or something.
Still…
Reminds of the company that makes escalators and stuff called “Schindler’s Lifts”. A name forever ruined by the movie “Schindler’s List”.
LMAO!!! This made my night.
Glad to be of service.
Wait, do they deliver overseas? I would pay for that.
Probably best not to have a whore delivered overseas in a van.
good shot.
