At This Point You Might As Well Just Go For 24 Hours, Yeah?

I spotted this sign on H Street, NE and got a bit of chuckle. That’s insane, right? 23 Hours? I wonder what happens during the 24th hour…

    I know, ’cause asking for 24 hours of child care is too much.
    H St is full of great signage (I actually have a shot of this one myself ;-) . Another one of my fav’s is the “Phyllis J. Outlaw & Associates, Law Offices” on the 400 block.
    I found out recently that a couple years back, the DC Commission on the Arts & Humanities sponsored an “Expressive Signs” initiative, and many of the memorable signs along H St (like the genius that is Stan’s Clothing) were a result of this effort. Not sure about this one though…

    Maybe when you hit 24 hours, it basicly becomes foster care.

    Didn’t you ever see From Dusk Til Dawn? You don’t want your baby there at midnight.

    so right jamie, never feed kids after midnight. never get them wet and keep them away from direct light

    I’ve also never seen this place open. so maybe its closed 23 hours?

    Reminds me of a Steven Wright skit: “I went to a store that said open 24 hours but it was closed. I asked what was up and they told me they weren’t open 24 hours in a row.” Ok, so it’s much funnier if you watch him do it…

    23 hours is a regulatory thang.
