Funky Foto Contest Week 31

Posted by Jim Minkey on October 17th, 2008

No, it’s not the level the DOW will be at by January. (Bad joke, I know…sorry!) Warren Buffett’s buying stocks, maybe I should too. Today’s pic requires two answers. 1) what’s the name of this place, and 2) the name of 1 of the tenants there. This week’s winner will receive $30.00 in gift certificates to Round Table Pizza in Marlin Cove. As usual, all quips, sharp barbs, decent jokes will be published immediately along with all wrong answers. Any and all correct answers will be posted on Monday morning. The rules of the road here are available on the left hand margin as well as on the bar above. Good luck and have a great weekend!

    For just a second I thought you were going to try suggesting that you were born in October of 2001. I’ll bet you still have change in your pocket from October of 2001. I am glad you clarified the year…which was, let me guess, 1962?
