Tripe cream cones! Get 'em here! Get your tripe cream cones right here!
No, that's not a typo;I checked. These people are actually giving away samples of processed tripe. Ewww. That's the bad news. The good news that this stuff is made for dogs. Think about it: what could possibly be more appetizing to a dog than beef innards? Okay, on second thought, maybe you don't have to think about it if you don't want to.
Where did I see this brilliant example of entrepreneurship? Why, at Woofstock. A healthy chunk of Toronto's Front Street was closed yesterday and today for this festival/fair/trade show/carnival of nuttiness. It was actually a lot of fun - if you like dogs, that is.

There are plenty more pics where these came from, but I think I'll just hold onto them and chuckle at 'em at my leisure... aw heck, here are a couple more:
Why do I have this sudden urge to put on a tweed jacket?
"Where's Pumbaa?"
"Hello, water bottle. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."[-or, if you prefer:]
"Oh yeah? Well, maybe you're going to last two hundred years in a landfill, but I'll still be collecting royalties from Frasier reruns! So there!"
