Prison of the Future--Cruel and Unusual?
by IronGland in
1. jw
2. friends
imagine a few years in the future when it is possible to remove the brain from the body and keep it alive artificially.

everything that is 'you' is contained in your brain.

so, even though it would appear to simply be a lump of meat plugged into a life support machine, you would be trapped inside of it.

i knew i had a bright mind, i had been told that my whole life.

she hated going out in service but since i hated it myself we didn't go do the door to door work much.

JW 'urban legends'
by Steve Lowry in
1. jw
2. friends
i was thinking about some of the old jw urban legends that we grew up with and believed in as jws.

most of the ones i remember revolved around stories about demons, and jws being "attacked" when they would do something wrong.

some of these legends scared the crap outta me when i was little.

as i walked around a little bit i noticed a large hell scanner sitting in a room with a plastic tarp over it.

before i start my story, there have been two developments in my life, the last few days, that i need to tell you...

first thing: my fridge is broken, it has been broken for ages, and the effect of it being broken is a huge icecap forming inside of the fridge.

a couple of days ago i was nicely told that i should clean the thing again, cuz the ice-cap took half the space of my fridge...
