I kid you not, the temp who was in for my secretary who was sick, asked, "Are we in the Northeast or Northwest?"

And she's from NY.

From me: In college, they had just come out with "The Clapper". We were watching a commercial about it, and one of my friends asked "I wonder what happens if you have the Clapper attached to your TV when this commercial comes on? Does it turn off?" Other friend: "Oh, I bet they make the clapping sound an even number of times during the commercial so the TV ends up back on"

From my wife: A friend of hers in high school was convinced that "trees made the wind" and that's why you always see the trees blowing when it's windy - they're making the wind.
