OK, why did the frog cross the road?

evidently, according to my mother, her friend has all sorts of perfume allergies and has been attending meetings in the ladies room with a door open so as to hear the vital spiritual information.
anyway, the elders told her she could no longer sit in the stall.
now she's depressed and doesn't know what to do.
This srory has really made me mad. It sounds like just one more example of a bunch of small-minded, uneducated, judgmental men, pushing around this elderly lady so they can feel some measure of power. Buncha damn bullies. Who the heck is she hurting if she sits in the ladies' room?
Maybe, as someone else suggested earlier, a note from her doctor would help convince the elders; however, she should not have to justify herself to them. The ladies' room, of all places, should be considered sanctuary, and she should be welcome to sit there as much as she likes, dammit.
one of the comments i have heard many times is what good manners i display.
i open doors, allow others to cut in line ahead of me, say please, thank you and may i all the time, stand for a lady and many other simple little and often goofy actions that seem to have been lost on the current generation.
in fact the thing that attracted my present girlfriend was her observation of my good manners.
I personally feel that curse words can be a valid part of an educated, articulate person's vocabulary. They will, of course, make you sound "trashy" if they're the only way you ever express a strong thought; however, if you have good manners and a good working vocabulary, tossing in an occasional m.f. for emphasis (when appropriate), can be acceptable. I don't like when people swear around children, or on dates, or to their parents- it just seems wrong.
If you have a chance, watch Penn and Teller's Bull@#$% (on Showtime, I think.) Penn has a colorful vocabulary, but he's also such an intelligent man, that he can carry it off with no problem.
i lost someone very special to me.
my cat.. she was 12 years old.
she was the friendliest, most loving, cat i had ever owned.
Tashawaa- My deepest sympathies. It's true, it can hurt every bit as bad when an animal dies, as when a human does. Hopefully you can take comfort in the fact that your kitty was not alone at the end, but was being cared for by such good people. I'm sure that it made her last few minutes more comfortable, having them there.
I had to say goodbye to my cat last year. Antoinette was 22 years old and had been with me since I was a kid. I thought the pain would never go away, but in time, I was able to think of her without sadness, and just remember what a cool cat she was and all the great years we'd had together. It will get better; in the meantime, take good care of yourself and your other kitty.
are you one of those sleepers where the slightest noise will wake you up?
or could you sleep through an earthquake?
do you sleep on your back?
I have a hard time falling asleep, and then I sleep very lightly. Any little noise wakes me, which is bad, because I live in a rather lively neighborhood. But at least my bed is large and comfortable.
Usually, I am on my side, although I sometimes roll on my back. I sleep wearing only my skin, except if I'm in a hotel or someone else's home (Then I wear modest pj's.). In wintertime, I may wear pajamas if it's cold. I have a large, orange cat who lives with me, and he likes to place his kitty toys on my pillow as I sleep, so there's always something to look forward to when I wake up.
priest and nun caught having sex
a catholic priest and nun have been caught having sex in a car at an airport car park in malawi.. .
the 43-year-old priest and 26-year-old nun were caught ?in the act?
I feel bad for this couple. Permanent celibacy is just not natural for human beings, and these two were just doing what normal, healthy men and woman do. It's a shame, though, that they were not more discreet about it.
in the spirit of minimus... .
what did you do in "the truth" (tm) for show???
looking back, i'd like to say i did everything independent of people.
Wore a long, pastel, flowery dress with a pinned-up neckline to meetings. With sensible shoes and very little jewelry or makeup. I hated it, because it's really hard to flirt when you look so danged wholesome. Couldn't wait to go home and put on something black.
.
i wrote a letter to the elders of the congregation here, in which i ask them to send me my complete dossier, i dont want them to have any information about me left in their hands.. untill now , its 3 weeks left , i got no response.. has anybody experiences with this and how to handle the problem?.
i am planning to go to court to force the elders to give me my dossier about me, because we have a law on privacy here.. can anybody give some advices?
Lawrence, that is too cool. You are now my hero!
My suspicion is that, if the elders don't want to turn records over, even if they are legally required to do so, they'll likely just deny that such records exist. Perhaps they might hand over some papers, but hang on to copies of everything. They just want to feel like they still have some measure of control over us, so maybe it's best to just walk away and not look back. That'll really piss them off!
as much as i believe that the witnesses are a "cult", i don't think i'd choose to legally ban them.
what about you?
?
Nawww. Freedom of religion has to mean freedom for everyone, even those we don't agree with, or else it's just a meaningless phrase.
if you knew a witness was in a convenience store, would you brazenly buy cigarettes or lottery tickets in front of them??
?
If it were someone I considered a friend, and who would be put in an awkward position by my actions, I'd hold off on the lottery tickets. However, I guess it wouldn't bother me to by a ticket in front of someone who was just an acquaintance. I don't really get the urge to show off to the witnesses, nor do I go out of my way to thumb my nose at their beliefs; dubs and I usually ignore each other.
Oh, and I don't smoke, so I don't buy ciggies anyway.
