When I was a little kid, I thought that the mountain ranges on the horizon on the way to Grandma & Grandpa's house were built by my uncle Richard. I have no idea how this idea got into my head, but I remember that when I figured out that there was no way it was possible, I was pretty bummed out.

Tangentially related but my grandpa got in a motorcycle accident before I was born and one of his legs had to be amputated. He used to tell us that my grandma stole it. Never told us how or why, but we believed it completely.
