  If you weren?t crazy before, that could make you crazy, don?t you think? (Thanks Mulan, I was looking all over and starting to formulate conspiracy theories about why I couldn't find the colour function.)

  Johnny Cash

  any johnny cash fans here?

  if not, shame on the forum!

  the late, great johnny cash was born and raised in arkansas, and by the time he was a mere 12 years of age, he was already writing his own songs.

  his daughter Rosanne is a great singer. In the late 80's she was very popular but had to stop singing because of throat lesions.

  I wondered what happened to her, I loved "7 year ache". I like Johnny Cash too. It's driving me crazy because my favourite song of his was a song called "I'm the winner" or something like that, about a guy who keeps getting in fights and winning and by the end he's a total wreck. Only I can't find any record of it anywhere and I'm beginnning to wonder if I just made it up that it was Johnny Cash.

  we just recently moved to a new state.

  where we were living, there were only 500 people, the school system was very small.

  our son's kindergarten was combined with the pre-school level, which stunted the things they should have been learning.

  Can you get him involved in some extracurricular activities where he might meet some different kids, or even meet the same kids on a different basis? Especially if it's something he's good at, that might give him confidence and friends both.

  Uh oh. Is Prince setting an example for witnesses to follow?

  can anyone read between the lines here?

  while prince stresses he holds no bitterness, he clearly does not hold the music industry with much regard.

  I hope he takes a few people down with him.

  I don't know Stephanie, if they're still alternately defending Michael Jackson, I don't think Prince's misbehavior will make much an impression. Hope I'm wrong, but JWs have nothing if not thick skins.

  Catchthis, I like your avatar too, I hope you don't get rid of it.

  in their sphere of life.

  let it so be stated that whoever is truly interested in this subject, and in having a "chart" done, etc.

  I don't think it could have anything to do with gravitation at all, myself. I've been reading those books about quantum theory and the Zero Point Field (the ones the rationalists all hate) and if astrology has ANY basis in scientific fact at all I think it's more likely to be about electromagnetic fields. But then the Zero Point Field theorists I've been reading think gravity might be electromagnetic too, so maybe it's all the same thing. But I think frankie is right, everything is connected to everything else, and maybe that's only a spiritual and not a scientific thing. My feeling is that science does not have to dominate every last little corner of my being, it can just be used to make my appliances work.

  in your congregation, did you ever have macho-wannabes on the microphones, strutting up and down the aisles handling the mikes as though they were aka assault rifles?.

  we had a few tossers like this.

  in fact, i might even have been one of them.... jonty

  utterly disgusting.

  those responsible should be lined against a wall and shot.

  publicly.. i think that would win more hearts and minds than bombing cities and using gunships on civilian areas.. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4855930/.

  Please note that according to a CIA analyst named C Pelletierre the Kurds were killed by a gas that only the Iranians had at the time. This was known at the time of the invasion of Iraq.

  United We Stand?

  what is the import of this saying that's used so widely in the us.

  is the message that dissent is wrong?

  that we must be united or else we'll fall?

  United We Stand allows for loyal dissent...it doesn't allow undermining US policy and soldiers.

  Well, what exactly is the difference between loyal dissent and undermining US policy. If you don't like US policy and you say so, is that loyal dissent or undermining? I thought the whole point of democracy was that you get to not only disagree with a policy with all the wit and vigor that Americans bring to bear on any topic, but also try to change that policy if you possibly can? And why lump policy and soldiers together? It is perfectly possible to support the soldiers (as I do since I have family in the military) and dislike the policy which sends them to a war you don't agree with.

  I think it's unfair to say that masturbation doesn't go anywhere. Like Woody Allen says, don't knock masturbation, it's sex with someone I love. But if someone were sitting in a group of people masturbating while the others were trying to have a conversation, that would be kind of disruptive. I think that's why it's usually used as a negative comment, not because the criticism is against the mental masturbation per se, but the fact that the activity doesn't include anybody else.
