The other day, I found an old cornbread wedge skillet. It had been packed away for more than 20 years, and was not properly seasoned before it was packed away. When I found it, it was covered in rust.

My question is this. How can I get the rust out, especially in the points of the wedges, so that I can season it and make use of it?

I really like cooking with cast iron, but I'm afraid this one might be beyond salvation.

The only people that find these two teams interesting are each cities fans. Everyone else is so tired of these two teams being talked about like they are the greatest ever. The sorry Sox finally won a World Series what??? four or five years ago and now the Bostonians think they are the greatest team ever, well they are right, they are still the greatest at joking. They will probably choke away that division lead, they most certainly will not win another World Series for a good 30 years. The Yankees, well they are just a bit more tolerable than the Sox. Yankees have a history they can boast about at least. Not just one lame Series win. Boston Blows!

she started writing high up on the chalkboard. Suddenly there was a giggle from one of the boys in the class. She quickly turned and asked, "What's so funny, Pat?"
"I just saw one of your garters!"
"Get out of my classroom," she yells, "I don't want to see you for three days!"
The teacher turns back to the chalkboard. Suddenly there is an even louder giggle from another male student. She quickly turns and asks, "What's so funny, Billy?"
"I just saw both of your garters!"
Again, she yells, "Get out of my classroom! This time the punishment is more severe, I don't want to see you for three weeks!"
Embarrassed and frustrated, she drops the eraser when she turns around again. So she bends over to pick it up. This time there is an burst of laughter from another male student. She quickly turns to see Johnny leaving the classroom.

"Where do you think you're going?" she asked

"From what I've just seen, my school days are over!"

I only like melted ice cream & popsicles, I think if theyre not melted it has no flavor and just tastes like ice. So I always put it in the microwave for 10 seconds. I cannot be the only person like that...

Muslims, Jews and Scientists from Europe created a cosmopolitan society of peace and mutual co-existance.

Islamic scholars of Religon (Mullahs,Imams,Ulama) were also scientists since the Quran encouraged the Muslims to look into science to see the power of God.

Muslim and Jewish scholars along with some Heretic Christians or "enlightened" scientists created a "JEWEL" in Europe.

Science, Mathematics,Astronomy, Philosphy etc. were discussed and studied with all three faiths living in harmony and peaceful coexistance.

This islamic attitude to science, mathematics and learning was so foreign in Europe that it was considered heresy and blasphemy.

This got the Catholic Church so UPSET they hunted down all the Muslims/Heritics and converted them by force or killed them.

The Church was so fanatically against free thought and scientific research that they blamed the Renaissance on Islam.

In revenge for undermining the awesome power of the Church (and planting a seed for Europe to emerge out of the Dark Ages) ,the Pope killed or baptised by force all the Muslims (and Jews) in Spain.

Then the Pope and Church along with loyal Kings started the Crusades to make sure Islam would not reach any further into Europe with their "heretical views".

The Islamic view of One God, no original sin, and the belief that there should be NO Religious hierarchy and NO organized church was a total slap in the face of Christiandom.

-----------

“The Renaissance of Europe did not take place in the 15th century. Rather it began when Europe learned from the culture of the Arabs. The cradle of European awakening is not Italy. It is the Muslim Spain.” (Robert Briffault, The Making Of Mankind)

“The Christian World came to wage crusades against Muslims but eventually knelt before them to gain knowledge. They were spellbound to see that Muslims were owners of a culture that was far superior to their own. The Dark Ages of Europe were illuminated by nothing but the beacon of Muslim Civilization.” (F.J.C Hearushaw, The Science of History.)

“The greatest crimes, the greatest “sin” of Mohammed in the eyes of Christian West is that he did not allow himself to be slaughtered, to be “crucified” by his enemies. He only defended himself, his family and his followers; and finally vanquished his enemies. Mohammed’s success is the Christians’ gall of disappointment… He did not believe in any vicarious sacrifices for the sins of others.” (Edward Gibbon, Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.)


If Jihad really meant "kill all infidels" then Muslims would have wiped out all non Muslims in the Middle East during their 1000 year rule of Jerusalem and 700 year rule of Spain. On the contrary these were the ONLY times all three faiths co-existed in peace and Islamic universities attended by Jews and Christian were a catalyst for the Renaissance in Europe.

During the Crusades rumors and misinformation were spread about Islam to rally the Christians into fervor for the battle with the “Heathen”. That fervor gave birth to some of the most regrettable crimes in the history of Christianity.

On the contrary, when Salahuddin retook Jerusalem and fought against an external evil (the lesser Jihad) they FORGAVE all the Crusaders who had massacred men, women and children. It was a "struggle" (greater Jihad) for the Muslims to conquer the internal desire for revenge and retribution.

Even to this day, Muslims hold the keys of the Holy Sepulchre (Christianity's holiest Church in Jerusalem) because it brought peace between all the Christian factions.


Only the atheists have the intellectual honesty to acknowledge these Islamic accomplishments :

My ex came by my place for my birthday, which I was happy to see him. He spent the night, he wanted to have sex but I refused. I told him I knew about the other women he was seeing and that I didn't want to expose myself to that type of lifestyle. He stayed the night anyway. I woke up took a shower and got dressed while he still slept. I was in the living room when I heard my front door open and he had left out when I went to the door and opened it I saw him running down the stairs. He didn't say good bye, enjoy the rest of your birthday or anything...he just ran out without saying a word.

He's never done anything like that before. When I called him, I asked him why he left like that. He told me that I had lied to him about something. I don't know what? I told him regardless he didn't have to leave like that on my birthday, he just that he had to get out of their & told me talk 2 u never, then he hung up. I don't know y he'd do that 2 me on my b-day.
