    nevawuzza was his name

    and history gave him mighty fame

    when he turned his ass around

    with a very mighty sound

    when he blew the Luribeam

    all the jews began to scream

    saying time will never tell

    when we all have gone to hell

    turn the time wheel turn it fast

    until the luribeam does blast

    and the Watch beneath the Tower

    leaves a mighty farth of power.

    he he he

    I actually can't take credit for the name. This is an illustration of a character actually named "King Nevawuzza" from a classic Donald Duck comic book story by Carl Barks. He ruled from the ancient lost city of "Itsa Faka", and his main preoccupation was finding a suitor for his dumpy daughter "Princess Needabarasoapa". According to the comic book, King Nevawuzza, incensed at the jilting of his daughter by prince Cad Ali Cad, ordered his royal court and the entire population of his city to undergo a purportedly reversible process which turned everyone into a dry powder stored in clay jars. After everyone was dried, the city and all its records were subsequently buried under the sand, totally lost throughout the ages.

    I think the WTS couldn't have explained it better.

    Hey, I like honesty!

    For the benefit of those who might not know what the heck it's all about, it's in reference to the years of rule for each Neo-Babylonian King between 607 and 537 BCE. According to all historical, archeological, and even the Watchtower's records, in order to maintain 607 as the fall of Jerusalem, the length of each king's rule between these "key" years comes up 20 years short. So the only explanation is that there was possibly a missing king not accounted for within the thousands of ancient documents on record...but then again even if this were somehow the case it would totally contradict the astronomical records. And there would have to be a intentional, coordinated effort by every Joe Blow who wrote up a document (official, personal, or business document) in this era to deceive every archaelogist and historian down the road into believing that this king and his 20 year rule did not exist.

    I never paid much attention to Avatars before. After I got thru reading about yours, I have to say, "Man, I am impressed!"

    Thinkin' about hunting up one for me now. On the other hand, my daughter is a budding artist whose into computer graphics and all that. Maybe I'll get her to do it.

    Thanks for turning on this "New Light" for me.
