Description
Is it just me, or does anyone else find this not terribly reassuring?? I don't have any kind of degree in advertising or anything, but it seems to me that putting "Atlantis" and "Drainage" together in the same company name is just a bad idea...
From the archives, again... This is rather small since it's only 640 X 480 resolution. I shot this several years ago when I took my first steps into digital photography with my first digital camera. It was manufactured by Sony, and was called the "Mavica." The 640 X 480 images were stored on a 3-1/2 inch floppy disk that you inserted into a drive integrated into the camera. You could get 15 - 20 photos on a 1.44MB disk.
How far we have come..... Now I get 600 high res photos on a card the size of a postage stamp!
I still have that Mavica, BTW...
Just downloaded a bunch more stuff, and more to come - Busted 5 and TNA page 7 now in production and coming soon!
Thanks for all your comments and support!

obviously a not too good match of names/professions - though it could be that the drainage in Atlantis was too good at that time
seems like a bad combo of advertising rod, atlantis did sink, no drainaige in the world could save it.
This ranks up there with a catering company with the unfortunate name of Coup de Gras apparently founded by someone who thought French sounded good, but didn't really have an awareness of French. As for this marvelous catch, I have to wonder what went through the mind of the person responsible for the name! Woah. Note to self: find another drainage specialist if I ever need one! This is quite a hilarious catch!
Atlantis makes ya think they'll run off with your money and you'll never know where they went - lol... got a new Puppy, so haven't spent anytime in poser... I may get into it tonight, I still have a couple hours and just about caught up on emails. curious to see what spacko looks like through your eyes... I'd be in trouble if I went there - lol try and get Rene's boobs reduced before he goes to Vegas - lol
LMAO, I had to read what you said to notice. Good one!
cool shot and thinking
Great find! lol
Spectacular shot Rod, very cool thought! Well done!
I too think its a bad idea thanks for sharing rod !!
Your right an unfortunate choice of name for the occupation.. LOL.. Great capture Rod well done.. Have a wonderful day!!
would be interesting to know what french draining is maybe as in french-kiss my a..hole lol. and downspouts sounds vulgar too must be a naughty company hehehehe
Maybe the firm can handle a lot of water? ;o) Great capture with your old digi-cam, Mike!..
Draining Atlantis??? Wow that would be a big job. LOL
There is a Barber is the UK called Sweeney Todd's.. Really! Its very popular! Another side bustingly funny shot! Bring these on Rod! Life needs a laugh... More please.. Rob
funny shot~~ thats a lot of work to drain Atlantis ~Milena
LOL...this is excellent!!!
Hmm...I'm still trying to figure out what a French drain is!! LOL. Amazing how far photography storage has come, huh?
LMAO!!! I'm with Holly! What the hell is a French drain?! Is that a drain that drains backward, LOL? That just MIGHT explain the term ATLANTIS! It drains backward so you are mostly going to be swamped and under water in no time, LOL! This is good Rod! Keep 'em coming!
You are right, business will probably be slow for this chap. Very well spotted.
Cool capture...look like french buisness name :)
Made me choke on my beer when I saw this one.
French drains are no mystery to someone who lives on a hill in a rainy climate! :) Love the name! Somehow it reminds me of a friend's granddaughter, who named her son Asher because she couldn't see any way the name could be made fun of by other children. ???
Heeehee.. that is hilarious! Yes, I don't think they were thinking well at all when they named that one!
That's so funny, although... If they survived the sinking of Atlantis, maybe they would be the ones to call? Huh. This is a hilarious shot, I'm glad you kept it around and shared it here. That name ranks up there with ones I've seen: "Vader and Vader Attorneys at Law," and the "Stiff Brothers Mortuary". Now what'd be a real hoot is if the guys driving the truck were wearing togas!
hahaha Oh Rod..only you would find this to post hehe I love ya hun! Great find!
