A Signboard

I saw a funny signboard today.



When I found it, the shop was closed and I was not sure what kind of shop it is. Anyway, I and my wife thought that would be a coffee shop or a bar. :o

The above signboard says something like "The busy shop." In Japanese, it's "暇を欠く店 (Hima wo Kaku Mise)", and it's literal translation is "The shop which is lacking spare time." Anyway I don't understand why they placed a signboard like that.

BTW, I found a blog entry referring the same signboard. This guy found the signboard earlier than me about a month, and he seemed to have the same impression with me. :)
