One day I was driving mindlessly along a street when I saw a sign that took my breath away. Why, oh why, would you name your business 'Tank World"? For the same reason you name your business 'Bob's Tanks' -- because you cannot think of a more original name, or someone else had already registered 'Tank City'.

So, I set about photographing these advertising wonders for posterity... (All the photos were from Tasmania, until some bozo from Canberra sent in a few, and I visited Sydney and Melbourne, and then I got one Las Vegas, and then I went to Melbourne again...)

If you see a business named 'something world', by all means send it to me and share with others the mediocrity that can be found in business names.
