  well, my fluff thread on eggs went over pretty well, so i thought i would start one on bacon.

  now, of course, bacon and eggs go together.

  that is axiomatic.

  I love food talk

  I love bacon, it is great cooked and put in a ceasar salad.

  I love bacon with eggs (over easy)

  The two "B's" togeather, bacon in a burger. Yum

  Bacon on a english muffin, with cheese, toasted under the broiler.

  This is soooo not good for the arteries, but great for the taste-buds.

  Did you experience favouritism at meetings?

  by haujobbz in

  .

  as former jw i did witness favouritism towards elders and circuit overseers and also noticed how low status j-dubs actually lined up to speak to the circuit/overseers wife.even outside association seemed to be confined to say elders associating with elders etc.

  i remember when even a sister gave a glass of water to a coughing circuit.overseer but i noticed she never did this to others in the hall.. then for instance how many at the hall formed groupies after meetings not making any effort to gell with others,i felt so sorry for those just sitting on there own.. so why do they act like this, it beats me because a lot of literature and talks focused on not being impartial to others,were they really taking it in or was it a question of congregation status or favouritism towards others.. also outside the meetings association didnt seem to exist and only confined to a certain favoured individuals.

  I definately noticed favouritism.

  1. for the PO, CO the big wigs

  2. There was a few talks about people always sitting with the same people all the time, and that we should venture out and mix among the crowd, that lasted about 2 weeks, then everything went back to the norm.

  3. Parties, only certain people were invited.

  Soooo glad I am no part of that anymore.

  JW Family, How Do They Drive You Up The Wall?

  by Celtic in

  2. friends

  many of us still have jw family still very much held within the congregation.

  personally, i love my family but they do have this uncanny ability at times to absolutely drive me nuts in sheer exasperation.

  the things particularly that really gets my goat are the following: .

  I could not have put it any better then you just did, all this goes on in JW families, hypocrisy, lies, and lets not forget gossip, and double standards.

  To them, it's like your always wrong, but what I do in my home is totally OK, and alot of things are hidden.

  Also shunning another biggy, we will shun some people, but not others, this drives me crazy.

  Eggs

  by larc in

  2. friends

  life here in our community has been tough lately, so i thought i would put up some fluff.

  my question to you is: what is your favorite way to eat eggs?

  now, my preference is hard boiled eggs in a salad, an egg salid sandwich, and the royalty of all egg meals - eggs benedict.

  Favorite Elvis Song

  elvis is the king baby!

  it is hard to believe that 25 years have passed since elvis' death.

  most his songs are "dated" imho, however, his "style" truly lives on.

  is there anything that could make you go back?.

  what do you think, is there any change of belief or change of circumstance that could make you return to the jw fold?.

  i cant see anything that could make me go back,but i was thinking mabye some of you religious types would go back if they changed some doctrinal things,or if they stopped banning blood.. how about if a family member was dying and hoped to see you in paradise would you go back for a while just to make them feel happy?

  I had to come back after I thought of this one, I may go back only if I could be the leader of the pack (cult) and treat them the way they have treated me and all my friends here.

  Let me tell them what to do, when to do, and how to do.

  No Not really, then I would be putting myself in the same category as those sick losers.
