What’s Wrong With This Picture?

Cute kids, but why are they selling bananas (green but ripe) at an “orange” stand?

Well, Orange is one of the cell phone companies here.  We have our internet connection at our house through Orange (pronounce it French, with the accent on the “ange” part).  It just struck me funny today- after passing this stand daily for weeks, seeing this big “orange” sign with bananas, not oranges, for sale.

There are “Call box” stands like this all over the place!  You can stop here and add minutes to your cell phone or pay to make a phone call with their phone if you don’t have one of your own.  They used to call it “phone booth” in the old days.
