along the same lines...

as the twin's last comment, I will post one other story.

Back when my dad was at Siler City at a church, there was a very large family there whose last name was Poe. So every time we took a vote on some church matter, he would say,

"All for this proposition passing, say I..."
[i...]
"All oppose, same sign."

For years I thought he was saying, "All the Poe's...same sign." As if to notify the church that, yes, in fact...all the Poe's in our church were in agreement on this vote. I always thought it was weird for him to let everyone know that...why did it matter anyway? So when I finally asked him, he BUSTED out laughing. We still laugh about it every once and again. :)
