So far so good here in Baton Rouge....winds are just picking up just a tad...hopefully it'll go on east like the weathermen keep saying...but on all the satellites Ivan's eye is pretty damn close to the tip of the boot....We're pretty far inland but you never know....

Not only does covering up these matters get under my skin with the Holier-than-thou JW's, but how they always are so quick to point out the shortcomings in other religions to make theirs look so good but they have the same exact thing going on...
I can't remember the exact scripture and I may not quote it exactly but the whole borg gives the scripture "getting the straw out of someone else's eye when you have a camel in your own eye" a whole new light (no pun intended)

I take this time to make an confession: My name is Sweetp and I'm a Vampire addict.
I read all 3 of the Lestat books...Interview With a Vampire, Vampire Lestat, and Queen of the Damned....after those 3 I kinda lost interest. I forgot who said it but I also love reading the book first and then watching the movie. Sometimes I read the book and awhile later they make the movie..I try to go read the book again before i watch the movie (such was the case with The Notebook)....
IMO IWAV was a very close adaption of the book..They still of course left out some of the things that would have made the movie better but it was still good..
Now on the other hand QofD wasn't close to the book at all...I was kinda disappointed but Stuart Townsend changed my mind a little bit.(that man is so sexy..then he plays a vampire again in League of Distinguished Gentlemen)......
I also read Anne Rice's book Feast of all Saints...it wasn't about vampires or anything but I saw the movie in the video store and saw it was from Anne Rice so I went and found the book, read it and then watched the movie..It was OK....
Also if you want to read another good vampire story check out A. J. Banks..Minion...its about a female vampire hunter...pretty good read....I have the 2nd novel on hold at Barnes&Noble...(shoot they might have put it back already)
I LOVE VAMPIRES!!!!

Hurricanes and Jehovah's Witnesses
by Sweetp0985 ini hope no one takes offense to this, but as many of you know i live in louisiana.
many here are starting to really pay attention to ivan because he hasn't taken that dog-leg to the north that many of the forecasters have been talking about.
everyone is watching and waiting for it to happen..meanwhile they keep changing the projected path..even though it hasn't quite proved the forecasters all the way wrong...it's still leaving room for change..most of all its still causing destruction wherever it goes.....does this sound familiar??

JW's say the end is coming. They know its coming but don't know exactly when. They estimate, estimate, get proved wrong (but not in their opinion,in their minds only... something really did happen in 1914....lol) but they keep changing their projected paths. And they also leave alot of destruction along the way of that path. People dying because of not being able to receive blood transfusions, not signing a card (Malawians), and ruining families. I'm sure many can think of alot more..... It might not be a good comparison to you guys but as I was just sitting here discussing the hurricane with my supervisor I thought about this....It's coming, Armageddon is coming, we're just waiting on the dog-leg.... BEWARE OF HURRICANE JEHOVAH WITNESS!!!!

I get the worse caffeine headaches. The weight loss medicine I'm taking has a major dose of it and sometimes I'm so tired in my classes I might grab a coke or coffee...BIG MISTAKE...and when I don't have anything with caffeine for over 12 hours..here comes the headaches....I keep a bottle of Naproxen(sp) close by at all times..

I just finished Crisis of Conscience...
by Badger inthanks to ray franz for writing it.
parts of the book have been talked about on the board before, but holy $#!+...seeing page upon page of evidence kept my jaw in a constant drop.... a few thoughts.... >franz seems to have little malice for the org, and it shows in the book.. >i looked at it with a very skeptical eye (as i do everything) and tried to see it from the perspective of a witness who sincerely believed.
i was still floored by the callousness of the comments of these people.. > control really does seem to be the watchword for these folks, and they've trained the rank and file well.

I just finished reading it recently too. I've yet to get my mind set on reading ISOCF tho'. But I was a skeptic also before reading and like a few already mentioned I got pissed at the double standards of Mexico and Malawi. Also how they make judgements on matters that will affect a person's life...by a stupid ass vote...no bible usage at all. I had to grab the JW proclaimers book I had borrowed from my mom (for research purposes only) and look at picture they had of the GB. I just wanted to see what type of men could be so heartless and stupid.....They know more and more people are reading this book and finding out more info on them on the internet (like I did, but I was already df'd, and was trying to find all the reasons not to go back to the borg) and they are getting scared.
IMHO thats why i think the increase of all the beware of the internet and beware of strangers bit. They know they are losing their grip because all the lies and things done in the dark are coming to light.
I know there is no use in kicking a dead horse, but I'm still curious as to why they needed to join the UN. That was some double isht for ya azz.....You can't join the YMCA but we can join the UN. Oh my bad, be a part of the UN just to use the library.....I bet any ordinary dub would get pulled in the back room at the speed of lightening if they came with some isht about they went to a church to use the library to do research on how churches are part of babylon the great.....
I'm sorry, I'm ranting...i always get carried away...sorry

How Many Hours Do You Work?
by Englishman injust curious.. todays "times" says that americans do most things one hour before the brits do.. americans, it says, start work at 8am, brits rarely before 9 am.
american lunch is at 12 noon, the uk is 1pm.
american dinner is at 6pm, uk eats around 7.. but how many hours do you need to actually work?.

I think an easier question for me would be, how many hours do I sleep?
Ok here goes.
16 hours a week at school
10 hours a week at work study program-working in the library
39 hours 1st week of student employment
40 hours 2nd week of student employment- so that I won't have the full time hours of 80 hrs for 2 weeks
School should be consided a part of work too....so for 65 hours (1st week) I'm working and for 66 hours the next week I'm working.......So I get to squeeze in a few hours of sleep in there somewhere too....

Wasn't he in the ark for only 40days and nights? No, it rained for 40 days and nights, but it took a year for the waters to subside. (Gen 7:11, 8:14) Was this 40 regular days or 40 days Jehovah time????
