Small Humanoids With Bulbous Heads

A second, unexpected benefit to starting this website has been googling the oddities that people send to our inbox. We have been thoroughly entertained by all the fascinating stories behind some of the license plates on this site. I usually see quite a few interesting vanity plates on the roads, but don't have the opportunity or means to look up what they stand for with my hands at 10 and 2. Ya dig? So it's nice to sit down and understand the explanations of these things.

This one came to us courtesy of Lexi. My initial reaction to this picture was why would anyone want to brag about their oddly shaped skulls? Wikipedia clarified what a Melon Head was however, so here goes:

Melon Heads is the name given to mysterious beings found in long-running urban legends in parts of Michigan, Ohio, and Connecticut. They are described as small humanoids with bulbous heads who occasionally emerge from their hiding places to attack people.

Uh, awesome. Maybe I should edit the page to say they drive SUVs too? More info on the Melon Heads can be found here and here. Creeptastic!
