Pleased to meet you, nice to know me

I've been meaning to post this for like ever, since like weeks ago when I first blearily laid eyes upon this work of art one morning:

psst FYI

I don't know where these guys can go from here, no matter how many non sequitur combos they throw at me, such as

or

Babies like breathing!

Believe it or not I just made those up (I know!!!) but I'm sure you'll find something close to identical somewhere along I-35. Anyway, I don't think they can top this one. It's a brilliant marriage of concept, message and execution. Not the kind of execution that executes babies, though. Gosh no!
