  WOW! We got more musicians in the house!!!!

  When one of my brothers went on a senior HS class trip to Paris, he brought back a French pressing of Fragile ['71 or '73?...I forget] when it was starting to chart in the US. I don't think I've heard anything [on vinyl] that had the sonic depth and clarity that record had. The US pressings usually sounded like second generation bootlegs [remembering some of the Cream pressings...ah yes, Jack Bruce...]!

  Speaking of Bruce and Holdsworth, anyone into Tony William's Lifetime?

  this is my first forum post though i've been out here reading yours for a while.

  i didn't know how to post my bio.

  i became a jdub at the age of 16. i had a child out-of-wedlock who was 1 year old at the time and i was searching for answers - i wanted my son to have a future and the one the witnesses portrayed was better than anything i'd ever heard!

  when i was 12 and trying to get baptized i did (only five hours a month!

  not getting a jw baptism was one of the best things that ever happened to me.

  so, did y'all ever get bothered by the "elders" for not spending enough time in field service?

  P.S. Anyone ever notice that when we start telling even as much as a little piece of our stories that we can't stop and they become novels? Geesh!

  Let it out, Ash. Let it ALL out...

  Preston- thanks for the memories LOL!

  Those images brought back waaaaaay too many memories like it was yesterday...

  As a kid, I remember the 'Let's throw the conniving, old harlot out of the window' image hitting that special spot of violence intermingled with sex...

  AND who knew Micheal Cain was gay?

  for going to my kid's wedding.

  he was told he was not "serious", had no "self-control" and "did not work well with the body".

  For instance, when an elder who had served for years in Central America was deleted, he said: "It hurts me very much to have lost the privilege that I have treasured for so long. But I am going to work hard in whatever way the brothers want to use me and work to recover my privileges of service." In time, this brother was privileged to serve as an elder again***.

  ***Reading that part brought a f!@#$*g tear to my eye...

  ...we certainly want to avoid having publishers expressing personal viewpoints that may not be in line with the Bible principles that really govern each Christian?s conduct and the united efforts of the brotherhood to blah, blah, blah...

  What a total crock of shize! I thought I reached the saturation point of disgust with the WTS! I'm reading this over and over again to get the full effect of the stupidity these fools are spewing! Condescending bastards! Outraged, I am...

  Thanks for the info, Voyager

  it is good for the canadian parents here who are fighting to see their children and they are having their children's minds poisoned by the custodial parent.... a good case in canada.

  Judge fines mother $10,000 for 'alienation'
  Kept daughters away from 'good and loving father'

  It's about damn time!

  I've gone through not knowing where my children were for years at a time because of my ex thinking she was above the law. The legal system was useless! I even joined Fathers' Right Association and heard stories of fathers getting hauled off to jail when their legal visitation time wasn't honored by a spiteful ex when they wouldn't leave the front door fast enough! Yeah, those mothers really care about the overall well being of their children...NOT!

  I wish you success Out-b-n-down!
