I'm not great either! The best I've shot all year is an 81 in late April.

hope springs eternal in the wts.
despite having left before even being baptized, i would have to say my parents still wholeheartedly believe i will someday come around, .
get baptized, become active and maybe even become an elder !
Got a call recently from my ex-spouse. She was pretty direct in encouraging me to think about Jah and maybe make a return to God. She went so far as to say I could be a "hero" in my kid's eyes. (only one of my three kids wants anything to do with the truth, so I don't exactly know what she was suggesting. Maybe there's a campaign from the Service meetings to "reach out" to those df'ed ones. I don't know.
It's obvious I've never been happier since leaving. But they will tell you how shallow, lost, and un-fulfilled you must feel since you have no "anchor" in your life. Well, let's raise a glass (of Merlot) to shallowness and being lost!!!!

Man, that's living. On top of that, skated out on work today, (men's day at my Club). Could have stayed for dinner and cards tonite but beat feet home to work in the yard.

i am out now four years.
i have not had contact with anybody in the troof except my ex in that time.
he kindly was emailing me and even had me over to collect my personal baby pictures and those of my parents who are both dead.
My daughter. She's 24, beautiful, and totally dedicated to Jehovah. She calls about once a year, talks only for a few minutes. Then she's lost to me again. It's truly heartbreaking.

ok, can someone, maybe women in general, tell me what this one is all about?
the dictionary seems to indicate it means "arriving at a conclusion without any reasoning".
what, just sort of a gut feeling?.

And why is it called "women's intuition" anyway?

we are heading to warmer climates next month and i was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on what to do down there.
we plan on hitting either tulum or chichensomethingorother to see the ruins, probably swimming with the dolphins, and not much else.were planning to stay at the adventura spa down near playa del carmen/tulum, but the last hurricane that hit is keeping it closed until late sept. for "remodeling.".
a 3+ day moon palace stay includes the tours to the ruins and a few other places, or else you have pay nearly $100 per person just to go see chichen.
Don't miss Tulume! It's nearly as good as Chichenitza and a heck of a bus ride closer. Chich is almost half day each way, and a lot of walking when you do get there. Tulume is one hour from Cancun. Camera's of course.
My favorite was the water park at Ixcarat. Underground caverns for swimming/snorkeling. (but they make you wear a life vest which makes diving nearly impossible). Also lots of snorkeling (without vests) in the rivers near the bay and in the bay itself. Saw a sea turtle nearly as big across as a man hole cover. My wife actually touched it. Water is very warm. Stayed in our swim suits all day. There is two very nice fine dining restaurants there. (many fast food outlets as well). Lockers available.
Coco Bongo nite club is THE place to go! It's at the north end. Half circus, half nite club. Tremendous and exciting. People on trapeze's swinging out over the crowds, jumbo tron screens, bubbles from ceiling, bar tender's shows, and the usual girl stuff. Bar doesn't even open til 11pm. Goes til 7 am. It's too bad that your wife doesn't enjoy that sort of thing. It's very stimulating and exciting.
Also, if you enjoy fine dining, don't miss The Plantation. It's on the lagoon side of the main drag through Cancun. Dine right out over the water. Wait til dark to go.
I didn't like the city proper, the real city of Cancun. The locals don't seem to like you at all. It's hard to find your way around and if you ask for help, most seem to forget their English. But as you know the tourist's Cancun is out on the peninsula, and that's where most people stay, play, and shop. There the locals are all too willing to help. They fall all over themselves. (tips)
As far as the dolphins go, it's probably fun. We didn't do it because at the time we didn't think it was worth it. (I think it was $100.00 per person for the thirty minutes they give you) But it doesn't cost a dime to watch others ride them, etc. Also, the golf didn't look too good in and around the city. Outlying areas we were told have better golf. The courses right near the hotels looked kinda hokey to me, and appeared designed for people desperate for some kind of golf experience.
I'm very sure you and your wife will enjoy yourself. If you haven't been, be aware that it's very "American". Doesn't resemble older citys like Peurto Vallarta, Matzalan, etc. It's as if you asked American corporations to build a city in Mexico. That's kind of what it felt like to us. Still, it's fun!

hello jwd board community.
just wondering.. has anyone ever heard of a person being disfellowshipped for the terrible sin of gluttony?
isn't it ranked right up there with drunkeness, adultery, murder, etc.?.
Blondie,
Don't they "pry into very personal matters" anyway?

That would be funny. A height/weight index chart right by the front door. Right next to the scale.

Nope, never seen a brother in a wheelchair with mic duty. Different issue, though.

Has anyone heard of anyone even being reproved for this sin? Just wondering.
