Was Andy Griffith secretly a Muslim?
 

He was buried less than 5 hours after his death and Muslims usually bury their dead with in 24 hours so one can only wonder about this. And while he did do some gospel music recordings that could have just been a diversion so folks would not know.

Someone needs to interview Donald Trump and I hope Sheriff Joe Arpaio will get his Cold Case Posse on this right away!:eek:

Aw, FFS.

Mr. Griffith with one of his famous halal hot dogs.

Hurr hurr

I don't understand this thread. Is there something important going on?

Well, as of that search, we're third result for 'Andy Griffith muslim'...

Just now, when I did it, it was first...lol.

I thought Andy Griffith was a member of the Church of The Whale Penis. :cool:

AG a Muslum , No !!!

:) nice one Nirvana.

'sack lunch'? Never heard that term before!

That is a remarkably quick burial, though. Don't some kinds of Judaism also go for quick burials?

Seriously, this is what my wife and I said. In most states if a person dies at home and is not in Hospice care they have to do an autopsy to ensure the death was a natural one. And in Texas even if someone is in Hospice care and dies at home there is a rule that the burial must be no sooner then 24 hours from the death.

CNN noted that no cause of death had been released either by the EMS team that went to the home or by the mortuary that handled the burial. I looked up embalming and it can be done in 2-3 hours so either they were very prepared to do it or it was what is called a "green burial" which some states allow and some don't.

Geez that was like no work at all debunking the lastest stupid conspiracy theory.

It was more work than I was prepared to put in! (see above)

No conspiracy theory intended.

I only pointed out that many states have either a waiting time between death and burial and that some require that deaths in a home include a post mortem autopsy. Also there usually needs to be a doctor or other medical person to document the cause of death before a funeral home will accept a body. Maybe North Carolina does not do this. I've had to do handle burials for several of my own family members so in my state and where my parents live I base what I say on experience.

And my original post that started this thread was only meant as a bit of humor and verbal irony which seems pretty common here. Sorry if it offended you or caused confusion.

Surprisingly 'brown baggin' it' is not a sexual innuendo ( to my knowledge) but refers to taking you lunch to school, work etc in a brown paper bag (also sack lunch), made especially for the purpose, making them completely disposable.

Ahh.

So, not exactly the same meaning as 'packed lunch' which might be in a bag or a box or other container.

My understanding is that In most states there is no autopsy following a hospice death. The death is expected. Also, part of a hospice contract is that you will not call EMS for anything ... including the passing. You, or rather, the hospice nurse that pronounces the death calls the funeral home to come and get the body. That's the way it works in Pennsylvania, anyway. I've done this twice in recent years.

Autopsies happen automatically in cases of unexpected death at home, or within 24 hours of a hospital admission.

So, perhaps Andy was in home hospice care, which would make sense. I think he and his family just wanted a low publicity funeral and if the family was all present at the time of death it may have just been easier to do it quickly. Funerals and memorials are for the living, they bring closure. INMO by the time of the funeral the deceased have long since vacated the real estate that they lived in.

Maybe he was secretly Jewish?

Maybe he was a Jewslim?

I refer you to my earlier post (#3). Please substitute the word 'halal' with 'kosher'.

I thought it was from the term "bindle" where a hobo would carry his belongings in a sack on a stick. Before there were paper bags, people carried their lunch in a sack or pack.

I thought anyway. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Kind of. There's some overlap depending on the context. If I say, "I brought a sack lunch," chances are good I do mean that it is in one of those ubiquitous brown paper bags. If it's in a lunchbox, I would just say, "I brought my lunch."

However, if I am attending a conference, for example, the flyer may say "Lunch will be provided," which likely means a serve-yourself low-cost catered spread, anything from salads and soups, to barbecue, to pizza. But if it says "A sack lunch will be provided," it means premade sandwiches packaged up in bundles with a cookie and a bag of chips (crisps,) or somesuch. You might get to choose between the ham sandwich bundle or the turkey sandwich bundle, but there won't be a lot of variety. Notably, in this case the sack lunch will almost certainly not be in a brown paper bag, but rather a plastic or styrofoam container of some sort. Maybe even a white paper bag. The sandwiches were still put together by a professional company, and professional companies don't use brown paper bags, because that's what kids take to school.

Except they don't, really. Kids take fun colorful lunchboxes. By the time they are too cool for awesome lunchboxes, and might in theory want it in a nondescript paper bag instead, they are just buying their lunch from Taco Bell or whoever else has contracted to sell fast food on campus.

Gold star thread drift, there!

If Andy Griffiths was secretly Muslim, maybe he was also secretly Barack Obama!

I use to be so jealous of those kids with the nice plastic lunch boxes with a matching thermos. I had this old metal one with Rainbow Brite on it or some such.

Places I have worked we actually did get brown sack lunches for "brown bag meetings." I think it just depends on the caterer.

Excellent explanation! Thankyou.

I fucking love the cellar. It's an education.

If Andy was secretly a Muslim, or Jew, so what? The only thing that matters is he apparently wasn't a dick. Now back to the regularly scheduled humor and drift. ;)

From kinder to second, I went to a private school where bringing your own lunch wasn't an option (nobody had food allergies back then,) and they would physically make everyone take a bite of nasty-ass overcooked spinach when it was served.

From 3rd to 6th, I went to a public school that had this rule that you could not buy more than one chocolate milk carton. So I had my mom send an empty bottle in my soft-sided lunchbox, and I would buy one chocolate and one white milk and mix them together so that I had twice as much chocolate milk.

Once I got to junior high they offered random crap beyond the balanced tray meals, like Frito pie and chocolate chip cookies. So I ate that every single day for 3 years, until my friends were old enough to drive and we would go off-campus.

Oh God, you just encapsulated my entire Cellar experience in that post.

That's exactly how it feels when I don't have time to come around often enough to keep up with things.

School cafeteria food was abysmal in all 6 of the elementary schools I went to...except for the first one where my aunt was the cook for some 30 kids from K-6. Food there was good. Jr. High got significantly better...I bought funyuns and blue slushie every day until I had the flu one day and I haven't had funyuns or blue slushie since.

My only question is was he a Shite or a Sunni?

Bags on the East Coast, Sacks in the Midwest. Not sure what they are in the actual West.

Then there's the whole Lunch Box/Pail/Bucket conundrum.

Mine was always a Lunch Box. With Batman, Green Hornet, the Monkees, Apollo Program (I think, or maybe my friend had that one), and the "new" US Mail logo when that came out in the early 1970s.

Wow. Leads me to wonder if I have any old me with a lunchbox pics? I'll have to take a look.

My current lunchbox is HelloKitty, which should not come as a surprise to anyone. My alternate lunchbox is an LLBean one, with an embroidered moose. The design was discontinued. :(
