I spotted this note while driving home through town last week. It was tacked to a pole in the main intersection of Plattsburg’s “business district” – which is basically comprised of four small blocks. NYC, it ain’t.

Here’s an (admittedly blurry) closeup, in case you can’t make it out.

Last fall, one (of two!) of Plattsburg’s eat-in restaurants burned to the ground. The name? Bert & Ernie’s Restaurant. There must be a connection – how many Ernies could possibly live in a town of 2,354?

’twas an odd sight either way.
