After long and careful thought, they have convinced me. I have come to the conclusion that they are right. The aliens did it.
BobL609 It's not necessarily a business; it's a railroad. In northern New Jersey where I was born and raised we used to refer to the DL&W as the Delay, Linger and Wait.

A local railroad here in Southeast Michigan, the Pontiac, Oxford, and Northern (PO&N) which was absorbed into the Grand Trunk many years ago, was apparently referred to as the Poor, Old and Neglected.

This is a true story;
At the First National Bank of Griffin, Ga, there were at one time 3 men on the Board of Directors with the names, Cheatum, Cummin & Goin!
Needless to say, but thats the name of our local attorneys on my club's layout.

In honor of today, Loof Lipra Party Supplies and Jokes
George In Midcoast Maine, 'bout halfway up the Rockland branch
Not politically correct....then again nor am I! On the Piermont are businesses like Jacklyn Elders (surgeon general under Clinton...lost her job by suggesting teaching things in elementary schools that kids already knew much about) School of self gratification, I.C. Pyles, friendly family proctologist, U.B. Poupin laxative company, What's in the Trap restaurant with the daily road kill dujour. It get's worse (or better). I love to gross out visitors or at least, have them believe that model railroaders have possums that are not fully cooked.

The name of the building supply on my layout is Whist Building supply. It's a joke from my wife's family from when they built her uncle's house. It stands for We hope It Stays Together Construction Company.
I was also thinking about Blues Brothers Used Police Cars.
In the town of Williams Bay on Model Railroader's Bay Junction project layout, you'll find the following stores: a beauty salon called HAIR TODAY (as in "gone tomorrow") and a menswear store named SUIT YOURSELF. And though the name of the business isn't a pun, the slogan of Kelly Appliance Co., seen on the billboard, is "Quality Comes Out in the Wash."
For the layout of a club I belonged to in Florida, I built a large industry labeled EARLY BREWING CO. The slogan on the billboard was "If you drink beer, drink Early." I like to keep my on-layout puns subtle.

On our layout, we have The Stan Wheybac Lumber Company.
Phil, CEO, Eastern Sierra Pacific Railroad. We know where you are going, before you do!
One company my company dealt with was named CTI, At one point it was an outstanding company. But unfortunately it was bought out and ruined. We started calling them in our inner circles "Complete and Total Incompetence"
There's a farm in northern Utah named Almosta Ranch.

I wonder if he is any relation to the guy who came to my house last year to take care of the cracks in my driveway before it was sealed. I think his name was Phil.
