Seen on the east end of Main Street. The orientation of the letters is right from this side, but “nepo” isn’t a word. On the other side, the letters are in the right order to say “open”, but the letters are flipped the wrong way. Was this an intentional compromise, knowing the banner would be seen from both sides, or is it a mistake?

About Fr Matthew Green
Currently parochial vicar at Holy Family Parish, on Cape Ann (serving the churches of St. Ann, St. Joachim, and St. Anthony). I moved to the area in early August '11, and am very happy to be in such a welcoming community and beautiful location!
One of my hobbies is photography. You can see my photos
on Flickr and buy prints of some of them
on Fine Art America.
I am a daily contributor to
GoodMorningGloucester (GMG for short), a blog by and about the community of Gloucester specifically and Cape Ann in general. The content is diverse, ranging from the beautiful and sublime to the earthy and occasionally offensive. I hope my contributions are of the former kind, not the latter. So, while I cannot endorse all the content that is posted there, I am grateful to Joey (the founder and admin of the blog) for giving me space to make my contribution.
I also have my own blog,
Perpetual Learner, which mostly includes my homilies and some re-posts from GMG, but also sometimes has other content, such as my personal reflections, videos I like, etc.

As a lefthanded person I read it right to left. Weird huh?
Flagmaker was a bit dyslexic? But, it does get your attention so perhaps a clever marketing scheme.
And who is the sadistic SOB that made dyslexia so hard to spell?
Rubber Duck agrees with this comment.
I once saw a restaurant named doof doog. Of course it came out boof boog.
