A new sign on Interstate 39 in Wisconsin has so many misspellings it's become a national (if ridiculous) story. The town of Rothschild is spelled "Rothschield" and Schofield has its i and e inverted. These are new words to most people, but "business" is not, so the fact the name of the highway was spelled "buisness" has just compounded the humor. According to the "Wisconsin Rapids Tribune" the company that made the sign took full responsibility and plans to replace it.

When did the prison stop making the signs? I think their quality control was better.

Let me guess ...

The company that made the sign has off-shored even its Quality Control group to someplace in _______________________ . (You fill in the blank. I dare you!)

You name the country for whom this would not be a problem when there isn't at least a Quality Control group in the US. The blatant stupidity of American companies today!

Evidently, the person who constructed the sign is not qualified for the lettering job.

Usually, you only see those sorts of gross misspellings in stuff written by white racist southerners.
