    Nice attempt at a smoke-screen, but KKK actually stands for:
    Krappy Kalifornia Konstruction

    I would be reluctant to send my gifted child to any institute of learning that spells college with a K in the first place never mind if its preceded by two other K’s

    While in college I lived in an apartment that had three complexes: Kampus House, Koed House and I can’t recall the last K House, but the parking sticker was, of course “KKK”

    I hear that Washington Mutual’s old CEO was Kerry Killinger. I always though it was interesting his middle initial was K. as well.

    How gifted could their programs be if they can’t even spell College correctly?

    That’s in Houston. They also had the Kountry Kar Kare but it’s since been closed down. In this case I think it’s just an honest mistake.

    if it’s a gifted and talented school, then why did they spell college wrong?

    While in school at a place called Koda Junior High, I was in this animal welfare club that was always trying to raise funds for local animal shelters through selling candy and the like … while at the time I didn’t get WHY our faculty advisor had so strenuously done so, looking back on our inaugural meeting now I’m really glad she vetoed our idea of calling ourselves the Koda Kritter Klub …

    “Hello there! Would you like to buy some meltaway mints for the KKK?”

    Does anyone remember “Krusty’s Komedy Klassic” from The Simpsons?

    I visited Taiwan recently. I thought you might be interested in the name of this popular clothing store I saw there: http://i41.tinypic.com/rlkl7k.jpg

    I live in Michigan and we have a posting at my college for a daycare called Kountry Kid Kare. I’m thinking, I’d never send my kids there (if I had any) because either they are super racist, or they are too dumb to figure out that their initials are KKK.

    in carp (or karp) which is near Ottawa, Canada there is a company called Karson Kartage & Konstruction
    Here is their logo: http://carpfair.ca/images/allspo1.jpg

    they have been the butt of many KKK jokes.

    The most disturbing part about this is that the Krestmont Kiddie Kollege is in the heart of Sunnyside, a predominantly black neighborhood (~84%, according to Zipskinny).

    Yoo Hoo! For those of you who do know how to spell College correctly, you would also know a “Pun” when you see one. You know, –a play on words? The owner was being Kreative, and it was meant to be Kute so get a Klue. To dispel any racist rumors, this school is located in a predominantly black neighborhood and is black owned. While attending Kresmount in 1980 I learned Spanish, danced ballet as a Chinese geisha girl, and learned the Waltz. So the next time you have enough time to take a picture, try to stretch your curiosity beyond the sign. It may change your perspective. Peace and Blessings.
