My great grandmother died several years ago. I was quite young. I asked why she died and everyone said "heart attack" and I thought that meant her heart attacked her. Then I thought (from watching a lot of TV) that the only way to get hurt from a heart attack was to clutch your heart. Back to my great grandmother. Then I heard my cousin and aunt talking about my great grannie, and the were saying "Now she'll meet Elvis and other famous people of her time" and I said "I thought Elvis was a chef! I didn't know he died!!!" (I got Elvis and Emril mixed up). To this day I still think Elvis and Emril were the same person.
