  i had not seen any the lord of the rings movies until a few weeks ago.

  i wasnt interested.

  Favorite Yogism

  by FirstInLine in

  .

  for those that are not aware, a yogism is an expression that yogi berra coined that has a certain ironic profoundness because they are profound and it doesnt seem like yogi meant to be profound.. my favorite is: when you come to the fork in the road, take it.

  Jehovah's Witness prank -- Reno 911

  2. entertainment

  garcia and the black guy on reno 911 stopped two guys guns drawn, felony arrest procedures really aggresively and were very agitated and nervous sounding as they forced these guys to the ground reciting the apb and suspect derscription.. garcia ordered one to toss his satchel as he was on his ground.

  the other guy checked it out and he said "its ok false alarm they're jehovah's witnesses, its ok false alarm.".

  "ok boys sorry for the misunderstanding have a nice day.".

  Watchtower's view of the Death of the Christ

  by FirstInLine in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have never quite been able to put my finger on it.

  there was always something in the way the watchtower presented the "passion" (although they have never called it that (?))..

  if you look in the "live forever book..." you may remember the picture of the old fashioned scale in which a naked adam is on one end and christ, or a watchtower depiction of him, is on the other.

  2. entertainment

  dave chappelle, star and creator of chappelle's show is the best comedian currently active.

  i enjoy his show on a regular basis.

  he also has one of the best hbo stand-up specials ever.. for those who are not familiar with him by name he is black, american, a bit thin, shaved head, narrow jaw with a big ol' set of lips and something of a higher voice.

  1993 Circuit Assembly Demonstration that Involved "The Firm" (1993)

  by FirstInLine in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i remember in 1993 at one of the circuit conventions that they did a drama in which a young adult woman living with her parents was going to go see "the firm" (1993) with some other young adult jws.

  when she told her parents of her plans they expressed their concerns and she pleaded that sometimes a really good movie is ok to go see if it is rated r. she heard from reliable sources that there wasnt anything really bad with it like gratuitous sex, drugs or demonic themes.

  in the end her parents convinced her that jehovah would still not approve because it was rated r. she was reminded that even worldly people recognize it is a bad movie because they are the ones that gave it the r rating.

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my old jw grandmother passed away recently so i went to the demon er dingdong i mean kingdumb hall for the memorial.

  and the dupes er fools i mean bafoons kept throwing the word truth around like 12 year olds say dude.. most of them assumed i was also a fellow dub.

  my grandparents are and my mom is so i guess its natural to assume full heredity of foolishness.
