When the troll dolls first came out, I thought I could put a jewl in my belly button and rub it and then my wish would come true. I was dissapointed when it didn't and stopped when one got stuck inside my belly button...
Also, my friend told me that if you got rabies you had to go to the doctor and they would strap you down to a table and give you 23 shots in your belly button!
