    My older sister told me that a dogs tongue and it's tail were attached-thus if you pulled it's tail the tongue would get shorter and if you pulled it's tongue the tail would get shorter. Pulling the tail always seemed to work cuz the dog would close it's mouth to growl....pulling the tongue got me bit a lot.

    I used to think that little men lived in the stoplights and they had radios to call one another when it was time to change the light.

    I called rail road crossings and pedestrian crossings "X'ings" not crossings not putting the X and CROSS together.... Rather embarrassing when walking with my high school gf (now wife, go figure she likes the dummies) pointed it out to me during a discussion as we walked to school...

    I was five years old and I saw Michael Jackson on television and I couldn't figure out his gender. I asked my mom and she told that he was a he and that he was gay. :huh: Not sure why she did that and I was really confused when I saw him with Lisa Marie Presley.
    When I was four I believed the devil lived in the ground and I freaked out when my dad was gardening. I nearly broke the sliding glass door trying to stop him.

    That the bottoms of cats paw were naturally protected against lightening strikes. My dad was tired of me freaking out that the cats would get electrocuted during thunder storms, so he made that little diddy up. Sadly I believed it into my 20's.

    When I was in 2nd grade, Sister Dorothy told us that "gay" meant "happy," so I wrote a poem......Jay and Ray lay in the hay and were gay....I don't think she ever recovered.

    I remember thinking ...
    ... that only boys had ears. Until I tried to put my hair into ponytails at 6 and saw I had ears too!
    ... that my mom had her "zipper" removed when she was done having babies. (the old C section scars were huge!)
    ... that someday Prince Charming would ride in on a horse and we would live happily ever after! LOL (still waiting for Prince Charming at 45)
