I know exactly what you mean!

Last week I went on a camping trip with the youth in my church, and on the drive back home I saw so many signs that said "Do Not Pass", and I kept busting up laughing, and everyone in the bus looked at me like I was completely insane. More so when I started yelling "You cannot pass!" everytime I saw said signs.

On this trip, we happened to be traveling through Wyoming (those here who have been to Wyoming will know a bit more what I'm talking about next). And in the part where we were there was nothing. Just dirt and sagebrush. I was reading The Hobbit during the drive, and just after reading the description of the Desolation of the Dragon I looked out the window and thought "OMG, that's where we are now!" Again, I bust up laughing, and when I tried to explain it to the kids sitting around me they just didn't get it!!!

Ah, well, at least I thought it was funny. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
