Forbes is a 25 issue per year publication last I checked. If you look at it every day you would get the same result for approximately 14 days in a row. Why not just check it twice a month. The message is a little contrived and not very funny in my opinion.
A better reader board might be – “Every day I look at the Obituaries, if I don’t see my name I go to work”.
However, if I was in charge of the Davis Donut reader board I would simply put, “Davis Donuts - better than Krispy Kreme”.

Do you enjoy the messages on the Davis Donuts readerboard?
No, but Dennis does. Reminds him of the Good Ole’ Days. ;-)

I pass it every day on the way to drop my son off at school. Some of the boards are great, some not so great, but I always read them.
