Read the sign

As I walked down the sidewalk in Laguna, California a few days ago, I noticed a sign for a restaurant. At first glance it said, "Sushi and Shake". I'm not a big sushi fan, but even if I were, the thought of a plate of sushi and a strawberry milkshake would be disgusting. I walked back that way a few hours, intending to show Carole the gross name of the restaurant. But when I looked at it again I realized it said, Sushi and Sake. One imagined letter made all the difference. It pays to read carefully.
