I used to think that the sign on the side of the road that said, "Stop Ahead" meant someone had their head in the road and you had to stop so you wouldn't run it over. My first day at school when the school bus picked me up at the bus stop...I started yelling "Stop! There's a head!" I couldn't understand why the bus driver didn't stop and then started laughing when I tried to explain why I had asked her to....
