I am amused by the notion of an establishment so modest that it wouldn’t dare to claim to be the No. 1 or even the No. 2 such endeavor. Perhaps this isn’t even what the signage means. But I remain amused anyway. (Between Leicester Square and, of course, Piccadilly Circus.)

share and enjoy

WKRP, with your generous help and support, has now climbed to 10th place in the Cincinnati market! If I sound emotional about this, it’s because I can still hear my father saying: “Son, no matter what you decide to do in this life, always try to come in 10th.” I think we’ve done it here, Dad!

It’s still funny. It’s almost like that signage was written by someone for whom English was a second language and didn’t quite understand how it would read.
