A couple of misconceptions I used to have:

That celery and rhubarb were related because we ate only the stalks and the stalks are stringy.

That when we deposited money in a bank, we would get the very same money back.

Do any of you have any?

I would have thought so, too. That's how "snail mail" works.

Before high cholesterol, I thought that steak was the best thing you could eat, not only for your body but your taste buds.... :(

When I was little I thought there were little people in the radio playing the music. I would look in the back to try to see them!

It was a long time before I realized that a heifer had to become a cow by giving birth to a calf before she produced milk.

I'm still wondering who's looking through that little red/black "eye" to know when you stand up so that they know when to push the flusher. LOL
