FRIDAY CASSEROLE

Some funny stuff,some serious,just throw everything in a dish. Granny served up some really bizarre meals that way.
Not a lot of real hard news on the interwebs today,just a lot of opinions. And,yes,Granny had one for that,too:

“Opinions are like a**holes… everybody’s got one and nobody wants to hear from yours.”

A SHORT TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE

Just a little fun before my morning nap:

How many of these do you remember?

I used to put this under my pillow and try to listen to WLS’s top ten most requested songs quietly enough not to make granny tell me to turn it off.

I learned to drive in a 1953 Chevy like this with a three on the tree.

I had a discussion with GP on Facebook this week about 7th and 8th grade dances we had in the school gym. We called them sock hops. She said hers were just called dances. Remember ‘At The Hop’ by Danny and the Juniors?

CtH got this one right away

Granny used this stuff liberally. I could never remember which one stung when you put it on… this stuff or iodine.

SEE-SAW OR TEETER TOTTER?

Theses are the first three Barbie dolls made. The one on top is a #1,made in 1959. The one on the left is a #2 made in 1960. The ones on the right are #3’s made in 1961. The way you see them,if in excellent condition they’re worth $600-about $900. In the box they are currentlybringing $3000-$6000. Ten years ago they sold for twice that.

I watched my great Uncle Homer use this many times.

Hope you enjoyed. Be back a little later.

Things to make you go hmmm

Disclaimer: I know close to nothing about Islam. I just think these videos and the article linked below (which I used for the graphic) are worth your time. I do find it interesting (in a WTF kinda way) to note that Obamacrats seem to always go for the “don’t paint all Muslims with the terrorist brush” thing, while simultaneously tar-and-feathering all Republicans, all Tea Partiers, all Pro-Lifers, all 2d Amendment supporters, all supporters of traditional marriage, yada-yada-yada as “Extremist H8ers.”

The article linked below discusses how moderate Muslims interpret verse 8:12 of the Quran.

EXCERPT: “Some non-Muslims either through ignorance or Islam-bashing continue taking the verses of the Holy Quran out of context and its history to justify their false propaganda. In order to gain a proper understanding of many verses in the Holy Quran, it is important to understand and know the historic context of the revelations. So many revelations in the Holy Quran came down to provide guidance to Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) and the fellow Muslims based on what they were confronting at that time. The verse 8:12 is one such verse which is misinterpreted. …

“Imagine if the following Biblical paragraph is used in the same way the above verse is used. Muslims know that Jesus, peace be upon him, like all prophets, came with the message of peace to earth. However, a misquotation may change the whole meaning. Read: ’34 Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to turn ” ‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.’“ Matt 10:34-35
