It is truly fortunate that we have stalwart defenders of the use of proper English in the village of Crestwood, Illinois. Below is an example of their administration's expert usage of the English language.
Do you suppose that their esteemed mayor understands the concept of irony?

An example of Muphry's Law as applied to signs, perhaps?
From the Car Talk website, we have two candidates for the Longest Run-on Sentence Award:
"I recently bought an 87 Toyota corolla fx 16 as I totaled out my other car hitting a deer when I test drove this car I had no issues on this car it had high miles at 197k but it seemed to purr like a kitten it wasn't until I started to drive it back and forth to work that I noticed the issue when the car is cold it runs and idles fine a little bit of shift hesitation but figured that might be a dirty transmission filter as the fluid appeared discolored however when the car warms up it shifts fine and begins to cut out and the Rpms dip under 1k every 20-30 seconds."
and...
"It becomes worse when the car is in gear driving down the road it randomly cuts out and seems to lose power while occasionally backfiring and if I come to a stop and leave it in gear it will die if I don't feather the throttle just right on takeoff or press it to the floor when I press it to the floor it's slow on take off and sounds like a mix of backfiring and missing and then suddenly takes off like a bat out of hell once I hit about 20 mph."
