My father once told me that ALL yellow cars were "Lemons" and that is why I never saw yellow cars driving.
It made sense to me.

Up until a few years ago I belived it, until my fiance laughed at me.


Also, (I've mentioned this before) when watching football games and seeing QB's looking distraught talking on phone on sideline... always thought it was to their parents. NOT THE COACHING STAFF...

    I would hear noises from my pillow at night when I slept on my side. I thought it was bugs crawling in my pillow, until I was in my teens and realized it was my heartbeat... :blushing:

    as a kid - My parents had me convinced that cotton came from the jowls of armadillos, and that the big round hay bales with white plastic on them, were actually marshmallows that had grown in that field and had just not been processed and cut down yet....... I believed both of these until I was 10, and I lived in areas that I should NOT have ever believed either of them.

    That ducks couldn't fly. I actually wouldn't believe my family until I saw it. I'm usually so gullible that I'll beilieve anything, so I figured they were messing with me.

    I am known for being gullible, anyone who has met me will tell you that.

    One thing I remember most was in parochial school (6th grade) two 8th grade girls were telling me how one of them was an extra in Patch Adams. She said she had to shave her head and everything. I bought it.
