“Surprise” is the theme of this week’s photo challenge. As Jen mentioned in her example, I’ve often been surprised by what appears in a macro shot, especially if it’s taken with my phone in bright sunshine! Little critters that I didn’t even notice look like sci-fi creatures when viewed on my laptop or iPad.
I like to be surprised by wit and word play is one of the things I most enjoy. So you might imagine the surprised happiness the name of this shop gave me when I chanced to look across a Philadelphia street and see it.
This, that and the other thing 
How brilliant – seems SO obvious now, lol!
It always does in retrospect. 🙂

Cheers Janet! ^.^

janet
🙂 Dear Janet,
I don’t get it. It must be something in English I don’t understand.
Would you bring some light into my darkness?
Thanks 😉
A wordplay on Julius Caesar. 😁
😀 Ooooh! Ok – now I have to laugh, too! 😀 Thank you! xo 🙂
❤️
Thanks for the laugh, Janet. This is a surprise!

Always happy to share a good laugh at no one’s expense, Allan. I’m glad you enjoyed it. And I see what you did: a surprise! 🙂
Great name! Very cutting edge.
I was waiting to see who would be the first to use that comment hair…et, here. 😘😉
janet
I’m a real cut up sometimes.
And you’re not just blowing hot air!
Hahaha! This could go on ’til we dye if we don’t cut it short. 🙂
Maybe we should just do the highlights.
That’s becoming a rather gray area for me.
🙄😀😀
Haha, very clever!
I love this sort of thing.
janet
That was a lucky glance across. A real delight!
It was. Glad you enjoyed it, too.
janet
How fun! 🙂
I thought so, too, Joey. Someone had a delightful sense of humor.
janet
Ah witty wordplay! This definitely cuts it! ❤
I guess that’s the long and the a
short of it, Anita. 😘

[…] This, that and the other thing Weekly Photo Challenge: Surprised by words […]
LOL! Brilliant!
I love it, too.
janet
Well, that was a surprise!
But an enjoyable one, thank goodness. 🙂
janet
Great catch. Love it.
Playing with words like this is not only fun, but makes their business memorable in a good way.
janet
That’s definitely a good play on words. 🙂
I thought so, too, Judy. I love seeing things like that.
janet
I love word play too. This is a good one 🙂
Some one was very clever. If you like word play, pick up “Anguished English” by Richard Lederer (or any of his books) or look at his site online: http://verbivore.com/wordpress/. He’s a word play master.
janet
Thanks. I’ll have to take a look 🙂
Good find!
