  Well, after a good dinner of leftovers tonight I decided to hit the little bar down the street for a few beers and some pool. Rachel was bartending and we talked a little. (did I mention she's a M.I.L.F.-a total babe?)
  So before I hit the pool table, I was drinking a few and I hear this voice. "Hey, I like your boots." Well I look around and I'm the only one at the bar and it wasn't Rachel.
  After a couple of games of pool by myself, the bar is stll pretty dead at this hour, I hear the same voice: "Wow, you play a good game".
  So I walk over to the bar and tell Rachel I'm hearing voices and tell her what I heard. She just laughs and points to the dish of peanuts. "That's just the peanuts, Mike. They're complimentary!".

  (is this thing on?)

  sex advice please

  by hulphi in

  2. relationships

  i wanted to start with a bang, so i have a question.. my girlfriend told me today that she doesn't mind me having sex with other women.

  i said,"i don't want an 'open relationship'" and she replied, "i know, i can't sleep with other men, but if you do that's ok".

  is this girl a lettuce leaf short of a picnic.

  Dude, if she's giving you that opportunity, I doubt it means she's went out and did another guy.
  You can probably end up getting her to admit that she would do another chick with you and that's what she's priming you for.
  Now hey, that's every guy's holy grail right there. Don't anyone deny it, you know damn well I'm telling the truth.
  The only drawback I can see for you is that if this is true, then it will lead to the payoff for her which is having another guy. So if you're not comfortable with that, and sounds like you aren't like most guys aren't then don't go for any of it.
  I went through that before, so I can tell you that if she is truly the way you say she is then you've got nothing to worry about, but if she's priming you to experiment then she'll end up finding someone else who will.

  most HATED thing about the meetings ...

  by alliwannadoislive in

  hey ya'll ... ain't tuesdays, thursdays and sundays even better nowadays ?.

  i was wondering what it is that you hated most about the meets ?.

  the one thing that used to really rile me was the pressure to control the children - the frowns and the disapproving looks when they were just behaving like normal kids .... the worst of it all for me was seeing any little person being taken outside and hearing the loud slaps even when the door was closed .... what is it that you least miss ?

  No, no, no, you've got it all wrong!
  I asked Agent Fox Mulder of the FBI about this and he told me the truth.
  Russell was no alien, just a human puppet of the secret shadowy group led by C. G. B. Spender-aka "Cigarette Smoking Man". Spender's group' early experiments in mind-control included using religion as a tool. So Russell was one of their recruits and it seems the experiment worked out very well.
  I mean come on! It's just so damn obvious!

  "The Day After" What's your story?

  by Bendrr in

  2. friends

  if this has been done before, and i'm sure it has been, i'd like to post this anyway.. "the day after".. before:.

  well, i didn't leave the empire over "doubts", i was simply another jw teenage burnout.

  i went from regular-auxiliary pioneer to publisher to weak to irregular to inactive in an accelerating spiral.

  "The Day After".
  Before:
  Well, I didn't leave the Empire over "doubts", I was simply another JW teenage burnout. I went from regular-auxiliary pioneer to publisher to weak to irregular to inactive in an accelerating spiral. I finally ignored the local elders' docrine that I should work for my JW dad in his landscaping business and found work elsewhere. That made me some worldly friends. Soon I was smoking and drinking. After a public reproof for smoking, I began to ever so slowly drift away.
  Towards D-Day, I was inactive in field service for the last two months or so and never commented at meetings. I showed up right before the meeting started and left as soon as it was over.
  Two days before D-Day, I was busted. My parents found an incriminating letter I was going to mail to a friend and my dad told me I had to move out.
  D-Day. I went to the JC meeting in work clothes.
  The Day After.
  I left the JC meeting and went to work. After work, I went out with my buddies from work and drank to the occasion. A day or two later, I went out with my best friend to the mall and I smoked openly and flirted with worldly girls. I remember sitting on a bench and just savoring the moment as I looked at Kevin smiling and happy that his best friend was finally free.
  I could go on with the aftermath, but it's really beside the point. I just wanted to share that one shining moment. Now it's y'all's turn, what's your "The Day After" story?

  I'd have to say stopping field service. That's as close as I can come, since really for me when I look back it was more of a series of "stops" in a slow fluid motion culminating in an exit I really wish I could go back and do with more flair.

  These PR statements really made me sick.
  First of all, they actually use the term "church elder" and I never thought I'd hear Brooklyn do that in the context they did.
  Then I have to wonder about the elders serving on the judicial committees that end up unwittingly protecting the molesters. Are these committees hand-picked to include only men who have no children or families of their own? Even those with only nephews and neices or who are close to families with children would be hard-pressed to take no action. I would ask how anyone could be so cold and callous, but I only have to realize that it is actually a cult.
  If this doesn't prove it, nothing else will.
  Only a cult member would be so blindly loyal to their leadership as to sacrifice children in the interest of protecting the cult.
  My dad was and is a long-time elder. Now I wonder how many cases of this kind he dealt with. I can almost bet the answer is more than none. I think of all the times he came home from an elders meeting discouraged to the point of rage. And I can only wonder.
  I'm going to tape that Dateline show. I'm also (with Silentlamb's permission) going to get some major hard-copy from Silentlambs.com and Mom and Dad as well as a few others are going to get some anonymous bombshells in the mail!
  Now if you all will excuse me, I have to find a way to get my appetite back before dinner.
  You're doing a wonderful job Bill, thank you.

  Bird Update

  well, haven't changed the name yet.

  "peckerhead" seems to have caught on at the shop and to be honest i kind of like it although i did shorten it to "peck", short for "peck r. head".. peck hung around the shop all day saturday, but once it was about closing time, she disappeared outside somewhere.

  sunday i drove over there to try and catch her to bring her home and release her in my yard but she was nowhere to be found.

  Peck hung around the shop all day Saturday, but once it was about closing time, she disappeared outside somewhere. Sunday I drove over there to try and catch her to bring her home and release her in my yard but she was nowhere to be found. Monday and yesterday, she didn't come around and I got worried that something had happened to her.
  Then today, my little buddy flew in to say hi. I had the mealworms ready but couldn't get her in the box to carry home. So I just fed her and got her to fly to me a few times. Smart bird, she knows where I keep her food. She spent about an hour in the shop then left instead of following me around all day and seemed a bit more cautious.
  Hopefully she'll become more "wild" and I won't have to worry about her getting hurt or poisoned by being in the shop.
  Dang, now I'm starting to miss that crazy bird.

  What a pretty summer so far!

  by Bendrr in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i don't know how the weather is everywhere else, but here in dixie, it's been the first bearable summer in as long as i can remember.. it seems as though mother nature took a rest this year, worn out from her years of relentlessly bombarding us with intense heat.

  for so long, it seemed as though the spring and summer months, even october, would bring an onslaught of 100+ degree temperatures with record high humidity and only enough rain to turn our evenings into saunas.. then this year came.

  so far, the temperature has topped out in the very low 90's and the humidity just hasn't had the enthusiasm of years past.

  Hey Francoise, I'm right up I-16 from you in Macon.
  And I believe it was hurricane Andrew not Opal that gave us the flood.
  I've been thinking about taking a weekend to go to Savannah this year, I haven't been to the beach in about 12 years. Can you recommend a good spot down there where there are bars and restaurants on the beach? Especially bars.
  Joel, I didn't realize you were in Atlanta. Next time my nerves can deal with the traffic and all the Yankees, I'll look you up for sure!
