It took me years before I "got" the joke Moons Over My Hammy from the Denny's menu. Then...one day...I was nowhere near a Denny's restaurant when it hit me like a sudden bolt of lightning.....Miami! *chuckles to self*

When I was about 10, I got glasses for the first time. The eye doc always referred to them as "corrective lenses". So...according to my 10-year-old logic, they were going to "correct" my shoddy eyesight...permanently. I was so bummed out that I needed to continue wearing glasses for months and years after that, and that my vision never magically returned to 20/20. Damn corrective lenses weren't working!
