A favorite sign––"no doges"–– on a nearby home-owned convenience store.
Misspelled words such as "doges", here, (or my store's "BOOK'S") intrigue me––they are like archeological remains, a trace of genetic material of spelling instructions: how to make a word plural, or possessive.
Get along, little doges, get along, get along.
