That dress is sooo cute! Wish I had those measurements, though...
And yet again, pulled into the matrix that is called ebay!!! I am an ebay junkie...Havent been burnt yet (knock on wood) and spend countless clicks looking at vintage clothes thanks to that link :)

First the haunted cane....Then the depiction of mary on grilled cheese.....Now the all powerful Joe Hoba is selling on Ebay! Any takers?
i am unsure of how to feel right now.
all testimony was finally given and the closing arguements have been read but we have to go back once again in two weeks to get the judges actual decision.
i am amazed at how stupid their testimony was.
Hi Shannon....Im sorry you have to go through this alone. Just remember if you need to talk to someone, we are here for you. Sometimes it just feels better to release. Im sorry I dont have any experience in your situation, but just wanted you to know you have a listening ear.
Oh and by the way, welcome to the board!
was just reading the topic "its time to say goodbye" and it makes me wonder what is it that makes people who have been here for a long time leave?
i couldnt imagine leaving this forum i love it and the people in it :) es
I tend to agree with Mulan on this one. I dont post a lot, but I roam freely and keep up on the local discussions. Most of the people that were here when I started about a year ago have left, or dont post as much.
During school time, it is hard to keep up, even to check new threads, so I decide to just visit. Plus I have made lots of ex-jw friends which I talk to on a regular basis, either via email or yahoo msgr.
Other times, Ijust cant add anything more than has already been said, and I feel silly for just say Yeah, me too. And sometimes, just sometimes people want recognition (read: attention whores) because they have noone to turn to in their personal life that can sympathize with their feelings

lotus birth - a ritual for our times.
by sarah j. buckley .
I can remember reading about different birthing options when I was preggers and read about the lotus birth. Fort some reason, I think this may have been in one of my books from school, this fruitcake was stating the same about keeping her placenta.
Sorry I think the stares from everone seeing my childs birth sac just dangling like, or keeping it with you in a little pouch by your body is just plain creepy. CUT THE DANG THING is what I was screaming at the time. Im not knocking keeping the cord blood however, coz I stored my kiddoes just in case, through one of those cord-blood programs.
But carting it around with you doesnt seem very healthy like either, especially after birth. Would the circulation keep going through and bleeding out? Scull, as the resident nurse, you should find out for us :P And evilforce, you dont have to be a brain surgeon to figure out your specialty isnt ob/gyn :P
i got to thinking about this, and how many are here without telling anyone.. my active wife does not know i post here.
also, i have met some wonderful local people who are here, and you know who you are.. those who i met, i regard as friends, and very supportive.
given our backgrounds we understand each other.. is this a double life?
My hubby<yes hubby :P> (who has never been a JW) knows that I frequent the site, but doesnt really understand the effects of everything ex-jw. I try to explain, but to do so is in great detail, and I get fed up trying to explain, plus he gest frustrated because he doesnt understand everything. I think he is a little jealous that I have found so many friends so quickly and some of them are male also......just insecure I guess....So I try to include him when I am on the computer and let him read responses I give and try to explain whats going on.
all my life, i've been covering over things, to keep the peace in my family.
i've been scared to reveal my true identity on this site b/c i might be discovered by a lurker....but i've been thinking about it a lot lately and i've come to the conclusion that there's no point in lying about it anymore, and if it's meant to happen...then it will.......so, with that being said.... .
my name is jobeth white.
Wow! Congrats on the "outing" so to say...you are right, it can be very releasing for you, for some it is a release of all the pent up feeling they have had. *hugs*

my nephew, age 2 1/2, has been diagnosed with this developmental problem and i was just reading the thread about the man who can caount 100 decimal places in his head.. he currently sees a team of developmental psychologists, referred by his pediatrician, and has been doing quite well in his communication problems.
he is learning sign language and has been signing more than talking for the past 3 months.....doing quite well.. i think my sister is a little spooked because of the comparisons between her two sons and their cognitive development differences (the older son was a blabber mouth at 18 months and at age 16, still wont be quiet...whereas the 2 yr old hardly ever talks, but recognizes and organizes all shapes, letters, numbers, etc.....he is very smart.. as i dont know much about the whole syndrome, and i know there are ppl on this board that have experience with this delay, i would be thrilled with any information i could offer my sister to calm her down about this.. thanks in advance, melbatoast

oooohh...I think I heard that joke before Tj----Its a good thing we all know you are joking.
FWIW, I always thought that passing the mike was a rather mundane task, I would rather be in on a JC....course I can dream, cant I? Women in my congos always seem to know more than the males anyway.
And as for the shaking of the boobies.....Im right there with ya Candid....lets give em something to talk about!

i love roller coasters, but i am so not sure if i would ride this new one at six flags.
i went to their website and they have a virtual ride you can take!
six flags unveils fastest roller coaster wednesday, september 29, 2004. jackson, n.j. ?
Those dang ferris wheels and the elongated cabs that spin up in the air, they make me ill. I got on one of the latter at a fair one time (bad idea anyway) and I was scared to death. I really thought I was going to die. But most rides Im good with....unfortunately, those are two I hate.
Kings Island in Cinci is also verrrrry fun as a great park. It was much better before Paramount took em over, but my fave rides are there....The Beast and King Cobra. Love em to pieces.
That space mountain was the only ride I was scared at in Disney World/ Epcot/ Conglomeration :P
