Does anyone else catch the irony of this sign?

I actually like grammar

I was one of those kids who really liked 7th grade grammar class. We would diagram sentences and I was in heaven. My son has been learning to do this in school this year - he's not quite as enthusiastic about it as I was. But I am enjoying teaching it! I even have a book about grammar and common mistakes which I browse for fun. Well, I also have a relative with similar grammar leanings. See her post here for what I mean. But I just had to show you all these signs which are up near our home. They have been there for years. Years! I'm guessing it would cost too much to fix them. Maybe I'll take a Sharpie to them someday. And yes there are two of them. One facing west, one facing east.
