NICE.

Old Dog, Young Dog, Several Stupid Dogs sign is just down the street from my house in Gold Hill, Colorado.

Yes, some of the dogs are stupid, but they are nice.

What those gaps means on that 'broken leg bird' sign in Scotland(?) I think the 'mouth' gap is fake (photoshoped).

For all those Americans out there, the scottish sign is completely real, those round shapes are roundabouts (traffic circles) and the gaps show that if you go all the war round you will go down the road you just came up.
it makes complete sense only americans who don't know anything about the rest of the world would not understand!

The Berlitz picture at the beach is actually warning people of pufferfish. http://www.flickr.com/photos/avi_abrams/415862809/sizes/o/

The round sign on the beach advertising the language school with a sort of mask on it means "Warning ! Man-Eating Cannibals !". It's in Burmese, and I'm Burmese myself. I love your blog.

You appear to be the one who doesn't understand. The joke is that the sign looks like an animal. A male one at that. Photoshop status unknown.
