so be careful.......there may be one out of ten.....or a hundred or a thousand......... and even the unreal one was pretty real....but had major issues..............oomps.
we are a very small club......compared to udders..........
I've personally met three people on the old JWD............fell in love with one of them (didn't work out) and had great great conversation and coffee with the other two.
I've talked to several and one of them is the son of an elder I have had dealings with from another cong. Some do not post anymore. Guess they have moved along as I have done.......but I still like to read what is going on with the "old faithful" and the newbees.
All have been great and REAL people.

when i got home from work tonight i was told my neighbor's daughter had commited suicide.
the daughter lived several hours from here and i had only met her a couple of times over the years, so i didn't know her at all really.
from what i understand the daughter had struggled with substance abuse problems for a long time.
Sorry to hear about that.
A guy I knew hung himself the day before Thanksgiving last year in a closet at his mother's house. He left an ex wife and a daughter. Sad to say..........he was a substance abuser also and was facing more time in the county jail for not complying with his probation officer. This guy would give you the shirt off his back but was a prisoner to his type of abuse. He is missed by those who knew him.
It's truly a shame that really nice people such as my friend let drugs mess their lives up.

"inciting hatred on the basis of race, religion, gender, nationality or sexuality or other personal characteristic.".
is this seriously one of the forum's rules to follow?
how can that be so when this whole forum is based on inciting hatred towards one religion.....jehovah's witnesses.......wow this is funny!
Welcome Scrappy,
And thanks for your opinion. Keep reading about our lives as Jehovah's Witnesses and you might have a better feeling for everyone.
As a famous person once said........."The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off."
HappyDad (ex elder)
are you hanging in there with life and moving on- post witness ?
i'm sure most are staying busy with work- or staying busy looking for work with this economy.
are you moving on and enjoying life in your leisure time ?
Life is great! Been mostly out since 2000 but last meeting (Memorial) was 2003.
I'm having my revenge by living a good and happy life.
Why... I just recently discovered the greatest new catfish bait.........Snausages doggy treats. Catfish love it!
Actually, I've tried other dog and cat treats......the soft ones that can be put on a hook.
Great bait!

just wanted to stop in and say hi.
i'm still very busy in the child kidnap arena, getting my real estate license, teaching acting on camera at the local community college and i'm rehearsing "private eyes" at the same college.
Good to see you here again Bryan. Glad all is going well for you.

i'm going to check all the gas stations from now on when i refuel.
this is from an email i got from a friend.
there was a report that 1 out of 4 gas stations had calibrated their pumps to show more gas being pumped than what you actually got.. here is how to check a pump to see if you are getting the right amount.. whatever grade you are using, put exactly 10 gallons in your tank, then look at the dollar amount.

Whatever grade you are using, put EXACTLY 10 GALLONS in your tank, then look at the dollar amount. if the dollar amount isn't exactly 10 times the price of the fuel you have chosen, then the pump is rigged.

i'm new to this forum and am also sacolton's wife.
alot of you already know about me because he's talked about me on here before...even has posted pictures, at which he incurred my wrath upon my discovery.
anyways...i'm about to submit my letter of disassociation to my local congregation and i thought i would share it.
PS to yippiskippy.....
I would also send a letter of why you no longer want to be a follower of the "borg" to every JW you know. Who knows.....it might make a few who feel the same way make their decision.

you are a gem and I congratulate you for your decision. This old HappyDad and ex elder wishes every spouse who has come to JWN can have the same happiness as your spouse.
Your letter is wonderful......but I would wait a day or so until the bubbly wears off a little. Change a few words and then submit it. Let them know you are not a robot.
Sacolton......this is a dream come true for you!

A cheap remedy is boric acid powder....preferably blue boric acid powder that I haven't seen in many years. The white will do though!
Just make a line of powder (like cocaine snorters do) along the baseboards. The ants and other insects have to cross it to wherever they are going and it eventually kills them all. I learned this while working for the Orkin army.
They don't use because expensive chemicals that act faster bring in more money. That's understandable!
