BONUS SONG!! :) In honor of today being the beginning of the world and all...

Okay I couldn't help myself.  I woke up this morning humming this tune.  :)
So, just a quick word about the ridiculousness of the rapture happening today, at 6 pm of course, and the world completely coming to an end in October.  UM.  FOOLISHNESS! Harold Camper and his gaggle of crazies need to actually read their Bibles if they actually are God followers as they claim they are.  Matthew 24:36 definitively says that no one, not even Jesus himself, will know the day, hour, etc.  Sheesh.  How much clearer does God need to be about the subject?  Matthew also says in an earlier chapter that anyone who calls someone else a fool is in danger of the fires of hell (Matthew 5) but did God mean Harold too?  Because the man is a fool!  Maybe God meant if the person wasn't a fool so in this case I'm in no danger when I make the statement that well, he is a fool!  (There I've said it twice!)  :)
So anywho...enjoy today's bonus song! 

It's the end of the world as we know it (and I feel fine)

The Feast of Firstfruits & Easter Go for Broke Day If it scares you this is the day to go for it no matter what. One Day Without Shoes Day Today is to raise global awareness for children’s health and education.  Why shoes? Because shoes help protect from bacteria in the dirt, rusty nails, dirty needles and shoes enable feet to withstand the long distances most children in developing countries need to walk to get to school. Join TOMS One for One There is plenty of criticism out there for TOMS and its short term solutions. Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by ...

Butter someone up

There are two probable origins for this idiom and I think both are equally plausible. The first one is that when you spread butter on bread you are buttering it up like one would do when trying to flatter someone. The second is in ancient India there was a practice of throwing balls of butter at statues to ask for favor, i.e. buttering them up. ( source ) When we use the phrase today we generally mean that extreme flattery is used to gain information or favor. It's not always necessarily a compliment. 

A dime a dozen

"It's said that in the year 1796, the first U.S. dimes were produced for circulation. Hence, it would make sense for this phrase to originate sometime after." Read more here .  Today the phrase carries the meaning that something is cheap or without value if it can be lumped in with other similar or exactly-like things. It's more of an insult than anything.
