* I've been working recently on Yahoo Widgets, and came across this "I used to believe" widget.
This program offers a number of quotes from the children who actually think these things, to the viewpoint of the adults that we are. On many occasions, I was certain I had had something similar in my experiences, so to share one here, one irresisible excerpt. "I used to think that if you ate the black seeds of the watermelon, a watermelon would grow inside of you and your stomach would explode. Another watermelon fear was that if you ate the white part of a watermelon you would die. I also thought that poison was only liquid and came in bottles, and you could tell if there was a skull and crossbones on the jar." Equal parts fascinating, endearing, and enviable.
