Signs

December 29, 2006
Always when you travel, there are funny signs worth taking note of. One amusing theme in Uganda is the Christian one. Small shops will choose names such as “Jesus is Alpha and Omega Retail/Wholesale Store” or “Trust in God Electronics.” This store needs to trust in God with the look of that electric pole leaning on the roof.





My favorite, however, is at a fast food place called “Christian Take-away.” Would you like your Christian crispy, original, or spicy?




Another odd sign that is up for the holiday is meant to discourage drinking and driving. In bold, large letters, one underneath the other, the sign says “Think, Drink, Drive.” In small letters in between each of these words, it says “before you,” but it’s hard to see the small letters when you’re driving by.



More signs:
The Miracle House of Electronics:



The El-ELion Hardware and Glory Church:



And... Mother Mary of the Most Holy Rosary Katwe Central Catholic Sub Parish:
