Re: Horoscopes, Fortune Cookies and Magic 8 Balls

I don't read horoscopes.

I don't have a magic 8 ball.

But I love the taste of fortune cookies.


lol

I knew someone would post this. I saw the writing on the wall. It was in the cards. Nostradamus predicted it.

I reread my thread and it does look like we allow some of it, huh?

Re: Horoscopes, Fortune Cookies and Magic 8 Balls

My grandmother used to tell me how when she and my grandfather were first married, he was very into seances and card reading, etc. Levitated tables, all kinds of stuff!

She was ok with it until she got pregnant for her first child (my mom). Then she said she put her foot down firmly and told him there would no more of it in her house because she had heard that those demons could enter into the unborn child. (I personally believe that's a crock, but if it worked for her, ok....)

So that ended that phase of their lives.

The funny thing is that she always had pictures of her parents and his parents and other extended family members framed and on her walls. I was fine with everyone's pictures EXCEPT my grandfather's mother's picture. That picture always scared me, even as a baby. To this day, I have copies of all of the pictures and many of them are displayed in my home. But NOT Great Grandma Hosler's. Nope. No way.

Re: Horoscopes, Fortune Cookies and Magic 8 Balls

I was trying to find a list of First Ladies that brought "spiritualists" into the White House. Can't seem to find it.

I know Reagan's wife was one, along with Hillary.

Can't remember some of the older ladies - Eleanor Roosevelt and Mary Todd - I think.

does you family participate in any games that use the roll of the die or the shuffle of the deck?
