Browsing the card aisle at Walgreens this week, (I'm really really bad at keeping up with birthdays...sigh), anyway.... browsing the card aisle I find this card...

and I think to myself, "Wow, that sorta looks like my grandparents." I pick the card up and look more closely and think (this time a little louder in my head) "WOW! This REALLY looks like my grandparents! This has to be them! Wow... this has to be!" I decide to purchase the card.
Later, at home I pull the picture of my grandparents out of my curio cabinet just to be sure... here are my grandparents in 1965 at Aunt Bunny's farm... somewhere in Iowa, I'm sure. Didn't everyone originate in Iowa?

See why I was blown away? or is it just me?
What kind of card was it? I'm not sure. The greeting inside said, "Bow-chicka-wow-wow!" I'm still not real sure what that means, but bow-chicka-wow-wow is right when I think about the resemblence.
Here's a shot of the back of the card and a picture of the woman who entered this photo. I'm guessing she is in her late 60s. She took this picture when she was 8 years old. Circa 1945. My picture is 1965, and I would guess them to be about 20 years younger in her picture... weird.
