TR,
I think a little vodka slipped into some orange juice at breakfast might make the public speaker a little more interesting. Either that or about ten tabs of Exlax finely ground up and mixed in with the morning coffee might make for a shorter talk. I was just thinking, out of the several thousand Sunday talks I heard growing up I can only remember a couple of them. One was on demons and the other was on how to put on a disguise to hide from the authorities during the great tribulation. The rest of them are just a blur.
Forcing little kids to sit through hour long talks does work. The retention level of two out of two thousand aint bad.

Maybe a little vodka and OJ would have helped make me go under, Dave. Come to think of it, though, we had had a goodly quantity of Scotch or something. Guess nothing will get through that cement block of mine.

I'm seriously considering getting hypnotized to help me lose more weight.........I've tried meditation, but I'm not very good at it, so I'm not sure if I can be hypnotized or not. Actually, I think I could. Several times during the commute to and from work in the winter time I've felt this. When the snow flakes are coming directly at your car, and you've got the windshield wipers going, I find that both these things combined can be very hypnotic.........
Alan,
It was the Scotch mixed with the other Scotch that set the cement and started you on your giggle fest. I swear, you never take anything serious. You're just a kid in old peoples clothing. You have so many people fooled on this board into thinking you are some kind of super brain. Me and Mr. 18 year old Scotch know better. After the forth drink you giggle like a 13 year old little girl at a slumber party.
Boy, we've had some good times.
Dave
For all you Ex Lax fans.
When I worked at the cop shop I heard the use of Visene (spelled right?), an eye lubricant, can have a similar result. It was stated that 3 or 4 drops in a cup of coffee will cause a tremendous discharge of human excrement in a matter of a few minutes.
Anyone here know if that is true or not? Not all of the things discussed at the donut stop by cops is true. Did you know that? There are a few that I would love to try that on. If I can work up the guts to do it.

Hypnotism might not be possible. However, the concept of neuro-linguistic programming (I know, Tony Robbins and all that) is a possibility. It was done to us to such an extent that I doubt if all of us are totally freed from the JW mindset. I know things keep coming up in my thinking, some good, some bad that were programmed into my mind by the WT.
In brief, and Im not an expert, the individual has his mind re-programmed by a person or an organization. This can be willingly accepted or it can be subtly introduced. The idea is to link ideas and actions to states of pain or pleasure in the mind of the subject.
This programming can take place over a long time or can be induced almost instantaneously. It can be a tool for tremendous good if the individual seeks the programming. However, it is an extremely bad and powerful tool in the hands of the various cults. It is the system by which true believers are made and kept within the confines of the thinking of the organization.
As a concept it is not that old. I think it has been theorized only in the 20 th century. However, as a practice, it has been around for a long time. Consider the powerful emotions and reactions Hitler created when he only spoke. Aside from his real physical power he was a powerful speaker and lead a nation.
Words do have power. We can use them to accomplish amazing things (either good or bad). Please feel free to make any corrections or observations about the above. I think this idea of programming is fascinating.

The active ingredient in several preparations of ocular lubricant drops is tetrahydrozoline hydrochloride. These are the symptoms of overdose, from www.medscape.com:
CNS depression with drowsiness, decreased body temperature, bradycardia, shock-like hypotension, apnea, and coma.
An episode in the first season of TV show CSI featured eyedrops ingested orally as a way of inducing violent diarrhea in the victim of the intended prank. Instead, it caused the victim to go into cardiac arrest. I strongly discourage trying it on anyone, even on a JW, because they may have a medical condition that you do not know about that would make even a minute amount of this drug lethal for them. It's not worth the time you'll end up spending in jail. Poisoning someone is Murder One.

Thanks for your reply Skully. I wonder if that is one of the ingredients in Visene.
Well if or not, it is not worth hurting someone. I never knew anyone who claimed to have done this, just some of the nonsense talk that occurs with tired people. I guess we will have to stick with the Ex Lax theme.

I was looking at a bottle of Visine to find the active ingredient before posting a reply to you. That is, indeed, the active ingredient.
Play nice!
