Will You Marry Me? (Sign of the Times)

I doubt any who have driven north on Woodward Avenue the past few months have missed the electronic billboard next to the empty Camper Country building. When it was first erected, some complained that the sign's high visibility would increase driver inattention. If it hasn't already, it certainly will next week.

It seems the sign company is encouraging electronic marriage proposals. That's right, for a fee, a lovesick Lothario may publicly propose to his ideal woman. One young swain has already proclaimed his love without actually mentioning marriage, but it's early yet.

Of course, there's a second problem; just how are we to know the young lady's answer? Perhaps the sign's owners will sell space for those the week after.
