You mean that you have a certain time you drink beer???? Why here is australia anytime is beer time!! Wonder why that little fact has escaped us all down under????????????? Hey its Friday and I am taking the day off work to recover from a huge shock enduced by one of the my managment group yesterday and I no longer feel the same way about my job, the program and how commited I am to everything. So I think I will swallow a slab or two anyway and relax and enjoy my long weekend and contemplate looking for a new job! Have a fantastic weekend!

From my sister's MIL:
wearing short skirts makes you thighs thick!
if you finger it you have to eat it - although you cant argue with that kind of logic!
Relating to Dubdom - anything I was ever told by them especially about living forever in a paradise earth. Just a thought would God ever admit he made a mistake in creating human's? after all everyone of us is supposedly one of his creations flawed or not!

God does exist...
by czarofmischief inearlier a thread emerged, as they do so often, on whether or not god existed.
i stated that he does, unequivocally and without doubt.
i refused to preface the statement with the phrase "i believe".

Hey Czar
Nice to see someone with such strong convictions and beliefs. I must admit to not reading all the post as my eyes are stinging from being on the computer all day at work. I read a lot of it and some of the replies.
Me personally I don't know and to be honest I really dont care whether God exists or not anymore. After all if God does exist according to his word I am dead anyway because I dare to enjoy all his creations that he gave me to enjoy and has then turned around and condemed me for it anyway. If he doesn't exist well then it doesnt matter and I am dead anyway. So my plan is to just enjoy my life as I know it, as it presents itself to me day by day and go with the flow.
Good luck to you and I hope your faith always stands the test of time!

Oh you wicked, wicked person! That would mean the person next to you wouldn't have a taste either! Isn't that glass suppossed to be tasted by all present????????????? Heheheh after all if we are all chosen then we should all partake??? Well something like that anyway. I know the elders in our cong would buy a good bottle of red for the event and then drink it all after.
One question though. WHy do Xdubs worry about going to the memorial. If you have left the lie why still partake in part of the lie????? I dont understand it? If you have left, then leave. I know the first poster in the thread (forgot the name sorry!) was telling about why they would not go and try to get the mum to see the troof behind the troof and wasn't going but I am not referring to that. Why do Xdubs still go?

From bitter expereince hun I can tell you that it is the Alzheimers and the medication bit that is happening. The Jekle Hyde syndrome is quite typical in certain stages, His Alzheimers is advancing and he cant control his temper. This phase will pass. I cant say about the unreasonableness. Most people manage to hide their bad temper but with certain types of ALzheimers the person quickly looses the ability to do this and the result is what you are living through now. You need to go to your doctor with him and talk through this as there may be medication that can help. This is the phase many couples go through where they split up. Its really just a lack of advice about this that splits people up. It can last for a long time or can be a short term thing. It is usually followed by the aggressive sexual phase where your hubby may sow his last wild oats and start acting inapporpriately. Hun get some advice from the Alzheimer's Association or your local carer's organisation. They will help you go through this so you come out the other side a whole person. ITs painful as hell and you feel you are going mad. Talk to p[eople who have gone through simialr things and you will find you are not alone and that there is some hope. He will also go through periods where he is his old self again before the "end" stage. This will take years and medication will prolong it and mildly manage it. Keep talking, feel free to PM me if you need to. I hear you and have been through so much it is incredible!

It sounds like you hit the nail on the head when you talked about feelings. IT is my understanding that in dreams you are working out feelings and can associate them with an event. According to what I have read it is the underlying feeling that you are wrestling with, not necessarily the content of the dream. So look at the feeling and ponder of why you are wrestling with it. What leads you to feel that way? Emotions are a very strong human trait and they are hard to deal with when we want to lock them away and not face them. THey have to come out somehow. Yours seem like they are coming to the surface in a strong way and you dont want to handle them but if you dont your dreams will get worse.

No wonder the Borg is in the state it is in. It sposts like this that make you realise more and more that I did the right thing and left this Borg. Thanks mate for sharing this brilliant information. Every person studying should read it before they jump headlong to the long spiral downwards that is dubdom!

Dear brothers and those insignificant others, sisters
Blah blah blah, rubarb ruhbarb blah, Doh, rip off, waste of time. Throw your money at us, your dead anyway. Blah, blah, blah, blah blah blah. Although no one really knows what happens after you die cause basically YOU ARE DEAD and cant tell anyone, we will make you think you can live forever on earth, so give us your money, waste your time with us, whatelse are you going to do with your time?????? Don't go out and actually help anyone instead throw magazines and spiritiual food at em cause when there house has been washed away, or their whole life has come craching around them its naturally the first thing people want. A magazine to tell them this happened because a loving God wanted vengence against them so just destroyed their life so they would find him! He killed their toddler just to teach em what a loving god he is! I know to make someone love me I snap their necks just to let them know! In conclusion just to summarise this talk brothers and insignificant others, you know why they think they are going to be part of gods grand plan is beyond me...sisters I mean, who are they and what do they think they are doing taking up valuable space in the cong. SHouldnt they be sitting at their husbands and childrens feet? In fact all sisters get ya butts off the seats and get on the floor now! SO the point I think of this talk was blah blah blah.

As an ex dub that works for Red Cross I can tell you that the JW's are not known for their humanitarian work. Interestingly their lack of willingness to subscribe to the geneva convention, it is non existent. They expect it to be applied to their followers when in captivity but will do nothing to ensure its enforced. Its workers from the red cross who look after JW's in captivity and make sure they are treated properly. Have you ever read an account of JW's visiting their own in captivity? Do brothers mention the kindness shown by fellow JW's during their captivity? Do they ever mention that the red cross ensures now that they are treated with dignity and fairness especially since the era of WW2 atrocities???????? Makes you think that this so called love that exists amongst believers is just a sham! You should hear and read of some of the accounts that red cross workers come across when out working with people. THe pityfull conditions they find people in.

I go out every weekend and its not a problem I have encountered. Tell me though why does it has to be a drop dead georgous girl? Why is it that we are judged on looks alone. Surely friendships go deeper than looks? I have met some of these drop dead georgus people and they are totally boring people. Talk to them about anything other than themselves and their looks and they have nothing to say!
Maybe if we all stopped being influenced by the media and looked for a real person we wouldnt have to worry about all the subterfuge we go through just to say hello and meet someone! Whats wrong with going up to say hi would you like a dance? Men in Adelaide apparently wont go ask someone for a dance the woman has to approach the man. So next weekend I am going to take the bull by the horns and ask someone to dance. I will go up to them and say hi, wanna dance? If anything develops from there that will be great but it wont be becasue of some cheesy pick up line that most girls recoil from anyway!
