1. Those signs that say "DO NOT PASS"

I couldn't figure out not only why everyone kept driving past them when it said you shouldn't, but why the police never gave anyone a ticket for doing it.

4. Mine is a sign thing, too: Watch for falling rocks.

I watched, but never saw any fall. I wondered why they bothered posting the sign...

9. I'm 37 and I still haven't seen a falling rock.

I feel ripped off. x(

3. When I was very small I couldn't understand how Western Union wired money.

How did they get money to go thru a wire.

I am sure I am not the only one.

My Aunt wired momey to a friend every month, I went with her to the Western Union office.

6. Why my mom wouldn't let me go to adult book stores eventhough I was an excellent reader

7. I was greatly confused why we couldn't tell Grandpa

that the wrestling shows he watched in the late 60's were fake! It was such a hush, hush secret.

8. Signs that said

Deer Crossing. Where I lived Deer crossed the road everywhere.
