When I was about 4 I used to think that "China" was a bad word. I guess it was becuse I heard a child at my pre-school say that if you dug and dug in the ground, there would be China. And sence the middle of the Earth was hot and I thought it was hell or some'm. To summerize that, I thought China was in the middle of the world. Well one night at dinner, my Grandapa said, "Do you know what happens when you flush the toilet?" "What?" "It goes to CHINA!" And so I slaped him really hard. "You said a bad word!!" I got a lession on China affter that.
