I thought everyone knew how to make hamburger gravy!

I did not know that automatic washing machines had been around for as long as they had.

When I was young I thought my Uncle Curtis drove "Insect" Caterpillars on the back of his 18 wheeler. Then he went to Paris, I could not figure out how he drove his tractor trailer across the Atlantic, it was Paris, Texas. Boy was I mad when I finally figured it all out.

This was when I was an adult - DH called me - and told me he was in Ontario - I was wondering what was he doing in Canada? It was Ontario, California.

Oh, my gosh, Bear, thanks! I got curious and went looking for dates -- the first electric washing machine came out before my grandmother was born! Only for rich people, though. My mother (94 last Saturday) clearly remembers her mother boiling clothes on the stove, circa 1927.

That was "The Creaking Door." :)

I did not realize that lab tests (for medical reasons) had to be ordered specifically - that if one had "lab work" done - "everything" was tested for.

It's been so-o-o long since I was a kid, I only remember one thing... I thought that it was always dark when my mother and father were young. I must have heard about the "dark ages."

My DD had the craziest one... She thought the shepherds in the Bible were watching their "Clocks" by night because they didn't have wrist watches!

That is a hoot!

My dad told me after I had played "I remember the year that Clayton Delaney died" for the umpteenth time on the record player, that the singer was probably tired of singing it. I believed him :o)

I remember asking the nun who taught us in grade one if she had any ears. Her habit covered them so it was a big mystery.
