Perhaps its about having a sense of humor, Randy Mayer has been in business a long time, he went to school with my Dad, and I went to school with his son. You don't stay in business for this long by being a knee jerk reactionary. The sign was in humorous reaction to the silly "bans guns on premisses" crap in 2003.

Absolutely. I just don't think it's all that awesome to applaud a merchant who makes one sensible rule and one kneejerk one.

The jerk is in the eye of the knee-holder. I don't have a problem with it. I think it's a matter of basic human respect to not talk on your phone while doing business with another human being.

Sure, but "don't be rude" covers that a lot better. If I get a call while trying to decide between Fritos and Doritos, why should the sign indicate I can't answer?
