  ok, this is what i eat for breakfast: 2 whole wheat toasts with strawberry jam and a glass of orange juice....that's it... .

  i guess that i don't eat enough at breakfast time, because 2 hours later, i'm already hungry for lunch .

  Hell is the "new system of things" promised by the Jehovah's Witnesses, an earth inhabited solely by Jehovah's Witnesses and carnivores converted to vegetarians, ruled by senile geezers suffering from the delusion that they are part of the 144,000.

  Amen bro!

  hey y'all,.

  i recently got this film on dvd and it is so on-point with its cynical look at religion and belief systems.

  i laughed 'till i cried.

  My fav part from Dogma is when Chris Rock falls from the sky naked! Nothing like seeing a skinny black guy with no clothes on.

  Gave me a flashback to when I first saw dear hubby sans clothing.

  The Twilight Zone...any fans?

  by Preston in

  i am a huge fan of the twilight zone and i wondered if anyone on the board was a fan.

  since the strangeness of the whole series mirrors my own jw life in some ways i found several episodes strangely fascinating.

  interestingly my first experience watching it was in the reprised version of the series in the 80's and there was an episode where a shadowy figure lived under a kid's bed in return he would not hurt the owner until... and that's what i think made the series unique in how they added a twist that made every episode special, disturbing, or thought-provoking.

  What's your favorite classical music?

  by DanTheMan in

  2. entertainment

  of course beethoven's fifth is tops for me, and the ninth close behind.

  also sprach zarathustra - strauss.

  fanfare for the common man - aaron copeland (what a nice thing that was for him to dedicate such a great piece of music to plebeians like me *sniff*).

  Toni Childs
  

  Favorite songs on album:

  Walk and Talk like Angels

  Zimbabwae

  Let the Rain come down

  Stop your Fussin

  
  
  And this group Naked Eyes "80's band" has a song I hardly ever hear but I really like it:
  
  

  
  When The Lights Go Out

  Susie doesn't go out very much
  
  She likes to stay in bed at night
  
  It seems that everything is all too much
  
  But she just lays in bed at night
  

  
  
  The day's all right but then....
  

  
  
  When the lights go out
  
  She calls your name
  
  When the lights go out
  
  Always the same
  
  Always someone left out in the rain
  
  Always the same
  

  
  
  She's the kind who needs the tender touch
  
  She never wants to compromise
  
  What you thought you'd never have gets up
  
  And disappears before your eyes
  

  
  
  The day's all right but then....
  

  
  
  When the lights go out
  
  She calls your name
  
  When the lights go out
  
  Always the same
  
  Always someone left out in the rain
  
  Always the same
  
  Always the same
  
  Always the same
