Drove past a new store yesterday. It's a place that fixes cell phones. Called "Bad Apple."

We have some other clever business names here. There's a big car lot named "A Lot of Cars" as well as the classic Dew Drop Inn.

Examples from your area?

Strip club called "The Oval Office" and they used to show up (probably still do) on the credit card charges as "Green Bay Steakhouse" to help you get them expensed at work.
