There’s a Tex-Mex restaurant in Austin called “El Arroyo” (Spanish
for “the gully”). Never having visited, I can’t tell you if the food is good,
or if the service is stellar. But I do know they have a clever sign out front
that attracts a lot of attention. The sign is changed regularly, and frequently
says things like, “Irony is when someone writes, ‘Your an idiot,’” or “It can’t
be ‘Rock, Paper, Tacos’ because tacos would always win.” Here are a few more
gems: “My ex said he couldn’t live without me. He’s still alive: more lies.” “A
pizza is just a real-time pie chart of how much pizza is left.” “I don’t always
have time to call people back, but when I do, I don’t.” El Arroyo has been
going strong since 1975, so they must be doing something right. And if creativity
or a good sense of humor makes for good tacos, their fare must be wonderful.
