This morning I saw this sign hanging in the window of the candy/souvenir shop next door to my motel here in Beatty, NV:
Wow! They have all forty... Wait a second! How many states??

I think, maybe the sign itself is a joke? I'm grasping at straws here... were you maybe in Canada, maybe hawaii doesn't count. sari. Canon 30D BG_E2 Grip Rebel XT BG-E3 battery grip

I suppose it could be, but it's kind of too subtle to be a joke. Who knows. I should have asked about it. Mike Smith wrote: Maybe the sign is just out of date. We had 49 states for awhile. That's a possibility too, but I'd think it's very unlikely. The building is fairly new, probably only a couple years old. I'd think if someone moved the sign from somewhere to a new store, they'd notice that. Maybe not, though. My name is Lonnie, but I answer to Thomas too.
