“weirdly sexy giant mutant Smurfs battle futuristic human intruders on an ethereal planet, covered with giant trees and huge, snarling creatures”

With Halloween approaching, many will begin decorating and preparing for the celebration over the next few weeks. If you are considering getting a pumpkin though, you may want to think twice about carving that pumpkin. A life of regret over slaughtering helpless vegetables may not be worth the momentary pleasure.

I noticed this rather interesting pair of billboards while eating yesterday evening. They must mean one of three things.

• This is an advertisement for something other than a hospital, otherwise if they are in this area they are contradicting themselves. What are they, a midwife service?
• The advertised hospital isn't in this area, which begs the question why are they advertising here.
• They left out the word "other" as in "any other hospital," in which case this is a rather embarassing grammar mistake to have on such public display.
