Back in the fifth grade we used to drop money into the heater in the girls bathroom for 'The Michael Jackson Fund'. We believed that Michael Jackson came to the school at night to collect his money and whoever put in the most would be considered a super cool chick. I remember one girl dropped a five dollar bill in and the next day it was gone. That was proof enough! No wonder the janitors were always so happy and had jingly pockets...

I used to believe that John Lennon's song went "Vincent Carmen's gonna get you..." instead of "Instant Karma"...I was always nervous around people called Vincent...

When I was five, thought paul McCartney was singing "stand on the rug" instead of "Band and the Run". I also though the girl "walked and talked like an ape now" (instead of ACE) on the Beach Boys song "Fun Fun Fun".
