Okay, here's one that I had forgotten about but thanks to Nathan's post it
*popped* back into my brain:  a few months ago my 12-year-old female
cousin visited the family for a few days.  She listens to crap like Hanson
and Coolio (there's a combination for ya!), but when I was driving her
around town I made sure that the radio was tuned to the rock and
roll-playing stations.  Anyway, at one point "Travelling Riverside Blues"
comes on, so I turn up the volume to make sure she experiences Zep the way
it was meant to be experienced.  Well, eventually the song gets to the
infamous "Squeeze my lemon" lyrics.  And when Robert says "I wonder if you
know what I'm talkin' about..." my cousin answers, "*I* know what he's
talking about!!"  I just about lose control of the car, but I manage to
recover and say, "Really?  What's he talking about?"  "You know," she
answers, "Nasty stuff!"

Ha!  Kids say the darndest things...
