I used to believe that if I swallowed chewing gum that I would turn into a telephone, why? Who Knows.
I also believed that when I was in my mothers belly that she would hold the telephone to her belly button at the same time as her mate who was pregnant with my best friend at the time and we could chat even before birth. We later proved that no practice was required as we still don't get off the phone for hours and we are 30.
