When my sister and I were younger our Grandfather used to tell us that anything we didn't want to eat or that he ate that was strange "would put hair on your chest" needless to say that this never made the food more interesting.

I would do something sometimes and my mom would KNOW I did it and

I'd ask her HOW and she'd say "'Cause I've got eyes in the back of my

head" and it would kinda freak me out... this little kid trying to walk around

behind her mother to see WHERE those eyes were!

:rolleyes:
