The other day, on my way home from work, I passed one of those portable road hazard signs, with the bright orange lights that spell out messages to passing travelers. When I first became aware of the sign, it read:
TACO
FESTIVAL
After a few seconds, the sign changed, moving on to the next part of the urgent message, with letters bigger and bolder than the first page:
BACON
EVENT
After a second or so, the words began to flash! BACON EVENT! BACON EVENT! BACON EVENT!
Finally,
EXPECT DELAYS
