Things That Make You Go Hmmm

So I'm doing some aerial investigation of an area that I'm interested in and I come across this arrow.
Makes your treasure hunting brain go a little crazy.

Dear Mr. Lupine Oil Company,

It's about time you started catching on to these signs. They've been right there, in plain sight, all the while.

This is why I fear you aerialists. Come on, what are you waiting for...

P.S. What is up with that arrow?

??? "Mr.Lupine Oil Company" ???
My you are a moxy sort aren't you? Perhaps there's some humor hidden there, if only I knew what --- ---- you were talking about. Maybe if it were emblazoned on the back-side of some jolly girl's knickers I might have a chuckle.

Hey Brian,

Lemme try and decipher my attempt at humor. Your screen name wolff bp, if improperly broken down, starts with wolf (Canis lupus) to the Latin speaker, hence the "Lupine." Now that last part, "bp," I've seen that somewhere recently...

Not terribly recently, as I believe your pricing has edged northwards a bit.

Did not mean to offend. Thanks for appreciating my moxiness. I like to use it rather than cologne.

That's more like it, cows....something a little more obvious. Now the brain is at ease.

Ahh, it's all clear to me now. btw no offense taken
But you have be careful using Latin because nobody understands that language anymore, save a few molesting priests I dare say. Anyway your translation was a bit off the mark leading me to believe you were referring to the perenniel flower Lupine or the oil from the bean of said flower. Wolf in latin is actually "lupus", as you said...canis lupus. However I did find humor when I translated your screen name which reads "una superficies" which, although improperly spelled, could be interpreted as one big sh--. [sm=lol.gif]
