Welcome to Something World!!


Something World was created to collect and archive any picture of a store whose name follows the format "Name World." This all started when my then-7 year old brother wrote the following lyric in a song:

When you go to Pinky's World and you see something World
It's: Pinky's World!!

For the past 12 years, any time we saw a store whose name ended with "World", we sang the song to him, replacing the word "Pinky's" with whatever store name we saw.

Now, after collecting countless examples in our memories, and dozens of pictures sent via pix messages, I decided that the world should see the outcome of our documenting. Enjoy.
