This post contains a few signs that I decided to go ahead and show you.

This is one of the best things I had turned in to me as a teacher. An absolutely amazing map of the United States. As an answer to a math problem. My favorite parts are "ocean," "sea," and "Kansas."

It's like a traveling garage sale!

Yesterday I showed you the smallest thing I'd ever seen towed (a lawnmower). This is the biggest thing I've ever seen towed (by a regular truck).

All of your needs met at one stoplight.

The ad on the back is kind of dirty. ("I got Lance in my pants.")

Brightest car I've ever seen.

What the?

I don't really understand what this is all about.

Scariest thing I've ever seen in a Mexican restaurant.

This person doesn't understand how it's ok to take off the last 6 years' stickers.

Saddest little Christmas tree I've ever seen.

Weird ad on a weird thing.

Sure kept me out of there!

Biggest bone ever. (Compared to my size 10 1/2 foot.)

This person likes the pink tiger.

That's a little extreme.

Silly state park.

I guess someone was a little taller than 9 feet.

I wonder if this kid gets royalties for being a walking billboard.

Do YOU know the Muffin Man?

Now that I've shown you just about all of my funny signs, I'm now going to move on to just funny THINGS. (There may still be a few funny signs stuck in there.)

This is one of my favorite things I've ever caught on camera. It was in Aledo, TX, where I taught for two years. It was kind of the country, if you can't tell.

I got this from one of my students. I didn't want to keep it because it was very messy, but I had to get a picture. "This is your heart made out of pencil shavings."

The crazy guy that lived across the street from my old school. The sign in his yard kind of hides it, but he's washing his pretty big dog in a pretty small bucket.

The directions (in English, Spanish, and PICTURES) for cleaning this particular bathroom.

I'm so upset this came out so dark because it's about the best thing I've ever seen. It was a cowboy monkey riding a dog. He even herded sheep.

Best parts: "nutritious," "edible vegetable oil," and "may contain Yellow #5"

More directions on washing your hands. I guess people have trouble with this.

Funny license plate.

Cutest little old man in a little tiny car ever.

This may be the longest "hallway to a bathroom in an ice cream store" ever. I like the cow at the end.

DFW Airport. This non-opening window over an escalator that goes down below this window should not be used as an exit.

One day this was on one of the tv channels.

They need to get a repairman into this bathroom.

Watch out for giant child tourists in NYC.

In a girls bathroom. This was the same place that had the stairs labeled "Vomitory." A weird place.

This is another favorite. I guess his regular A/C that came with the car had gone out.

Ah. Good ol' Captain Sewer. We had to watch this video last summer for inservice the same day we had to go to the Sewage Treatment Plant. It was a good day for everyone. Captain Sewer made it worth it.

You don't see cars towing things very often. Especially tiny trailers with lawnmowers.

What ingredients make something "cheese flavored"?

This guy digs America.

Here are a few pictures of funny signs from my travels around the U.S.

This was a crazy menu at the Farmer's Market in Los Angeles.

A really funny bus ad in Los Angeles. The bottom says Auto "o" trabajo, which translates Auto "or" Work. The top: Accidents!

In case you want to, you know, lactate at NASA.

This is a pretty scary sign at the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.

This reminded me of that one episode of Punky Brewster where Cheri got stuck in the fridge.

This is about the grossest sign I've ever seen. It was at this place at NASA where they figure out how to turn pee water into drinking water on the space station.

Obviously found at the same place.

This was in our hotel room. NEVER hang your clothes from the sprinkler.

This is pretty gross too. Sorry it's so fuzzy.

Stupid NASA notes.

Silly NASA.

Their motto is great.

Now on to a few things from Salt Lake City. This "Caution: Wet Floor" was by one of those fountains with the water coming out of the ground. A little redundant.

"Please do not touch the earth globe."

Real rocks ARE real hard.

Very detailed directions. Follow every step.

The brilliant minds at the Marriott Hotel.

The Texarkana airport couldn't afford the letter P apparently.

I'm glad they printed a sign to tell us the status of the door.

This wasn't funny, but pretty scary. I just ran out of funny signs for this post.
