This statement had been printed on the stalls in the men's restrooms at both the north bound and south bound rest stops outside of Pueblo Colorado for at least 10 years when I took this picture. They were in progress of building new and improved rest stops so I knew that this stall and its enigmatic message would not be long for this world so I made a special trip out to snap this picture.
Over the course of typing this I have decided to go add this message to the doors of the newly built rest stops. Seeing this message put a broad smile on my face every time I had to make an emergency pee on my way to or from Springs. I can't imagine future generations of Pueblonians deprived of this subtle joy. Information Insertion here I come!

It's fully functional as a door. If logic serves, behind it is not a toilet, which I have not used on many occasions.
I have to assume, although Pueblo is a near black hole of culture, there was at one point at least one surrealist in residence.

Looking forward to Info Insertion....and imagining the look on someone's face who notices the juxtaposition of the new rest stop yet old message!
