Fun signs . . .

The Telegraph of London has featured a photo series for the last five months: "Sign language." See what you think. . . .


Deep thinkers ahead
Superficial drivers should proceed with caution.
Location: Opiki, New Zealand



The end is near
The lower death access is just no good. Stick to the upper death. Go past the moral high road and the road less travelled and you can't miss it.
Location: Box Death Hollow Wilderness Area, Utah



Breaking news
You're not going to believe this, but see that big hill in front of you? Well, it's blocking the view of what's on the other side. Here's the good news: when you get to the top, you'll be able to see the view.
Location: Richfield, Wisconsin



No signs . . . except this one
. . . Proving that there is an exception to every rule.
Location: Honolulu, Oahu



Midwestern multitasking
Here’s an interesting business model: Lure them in with stuffed animals, then sell them cheese. Presumably, the cheese looks incredibly lifelike.
Location: Hudson, Wisconsin



Please don't!
The zoo keepers made good use of their English thesaurus.
Location: Pune Zoo, India



Insane lane
Hope you know what time it is . . . and which way you're going!
Location: Washington, DC



Stop Light from H*ll
At least this sign lets you know where you stand . . . or sit. Idling. In neutral. Forever.
Location: Fort Walton Beach, FL



Drive-by surgery
The streets in Wausau are kept so clean you could perform surgery on them.
Location: Wausau, Wisconsin



Heavy Traffic
Perhaps the hikers and bikers are overweight. Or perhaps there is some major deer migration in the area.
Location: Colorado



Food may eventually arrive
Come for the food, stay for the waiting.
Location: Guangzhou, China



Please remove feet and drag yourself in
Drastic entry requirement for a Buddhist temple.
Location: Yangon, Myanmar



Fancy a nibble on the way out?
Just don't do it like a vegetarian.
Location: Shanghai, China



Doob as I say, not as I doob
Seems the Pakistan Narcotics Investigating Unit might be able to get more publicity if they could just trim down that patch of marijuana so people could see their sign.
Location: Mingora, Pakistan



Should I stay or should I go?
Which do you prefer? Welcome to a world of indecision.
Location: Kemmerer, WY


. . . And, of course, there are plenty more where these came from!
