I Took Out a Billboard For All My Ex-Girlfriends.

Not really. But on my way home from work I see this billboard. It sits at about 15th and West O.


Hmmmm. No corporate logos, no URL, no anything. But the thing does look somewhat professionally done, what with the little graphical elements and color choices -- an amateur probably would've gone for black and white, right?

So here are the possible explanations for who would be apologizing to the city, and why...
  1. Mayor Chris Beutler (the new guy) for slashing youth sports from Lincoln's budget, rendering Lincoln's youth an entire generation of Bad News Bears. He's a nice guy, and I think he'll be a good mayor, but he did kind of screw that up.
  2. Maurice Purify for accidentally turning into a Miami Hurricane for a few weeks there.
  3. Alltel Wireless and/or Time Warner Cable for general bastardness.
  4. Cliffs and WC's for both closing for remodeling/moving at the same time, leaving me with nowhere to drown my sorrows after work.
  5. Rod Kush for years of agonizingly bad commercials that, for some reason, always ran during The Simpsons when I was growing up.
Your thoughts? Who else could be apologizing? Comment below and add your two cents.

.cheers

I think it’s Cliffs apologizing for moving next to Mainstreet. Let’s hope they don’t get any ideas and start serving drinks out of plastic cups that haven’t been washed since ’97.

i think it's the entire casts and crews of The Office and Lost, apologizing to me for completely taking over my life on wednesday and thursday nights.
