Observed in Trenton
I was sitting on the train the other day. This is a common occurrence since I live in both DC and NY and travel back and forth every week. Riding through Trenton I saw something that I have seen many times before and now, armed with a pointless blog, I can share. It is a bridge that has some kind of official Trenton slogan written on it. When I say written, I am referring to huge (many times larger than a person) welded steel letters, running along one side of the bridge. Now add lots of obnoxious neon. They are pretty serious about this slogan, apparently. It says, “Trenton makes — the world takes.” Now, is it just me, or does Trenton sound really bitter?

I’ve noticed this sign on the train before, too… it really has never made much sense to me either.
