... yes, that means I'm as curious as a cat, but if you read this blog, you're probably equally curious.
Today's Challenges are about those moments when you're wandering around and you spot something that you just don't understand. I my case, I usually take a photo and then SearchResearch it when I get home.

These are full, clickable images (if you want to download them at full resolution).
Let us know what you think they are--and, of course, HOW you figured it out!
We want to learn from the best of our SearchResearch practice.
