  Observation on Things Not said.

  by Sparkplug in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  have you ever noticed that around here more is said when people are silent than when they are talking sometimes.

  not anything in particular, i just noticed that when people get silent, there usually is a reason.

  hard times, drama, can't comment...etc.

  Shhhhhhhh.........haven't you heard silence is golden?

  I'm in the down side of my life, the Golden Years, over the hill and it just goes faster on this side, believe me. Why it seems like yesterday I was ringing in the New Year....the Millenium one.......sigh.

  I'm quiet these days because I just want/need to soak up the now, it's so fleeting and all this other BS is just so not where I'm at. I have a need to listen quietly and enjoy the moments because I find I can hardly remember these moments and yesterday is so loud with all the woulda, coulda, shoulda that is never to be. What is is now and that's where I'm striving to be, in the now.

  So I observe quietly with a whisper I speak so as not to disturb my concentration on today, this minute this time which is so fleeting.

  Life is for the young, you have so much ahead of you and I wish you and yours all the best life has to offer and that's not just to you Sparky and Sixy but to everyone. We all deserve it, we are after all survivors of a cult.

  What's Your Favorite Seinfeld Episode?

  my favorite all time episode is the tennis/j peterman incident where kramer is walking across the tennis court and a racquet goes flying and hits a machine and kramer gets pelleted with tennis balls.

  another really good one is when newman smells kramer basting on the roof and starts seeing him as food.. .

  My favorite one is Junior Mint!

  Jerry has a date with a woman whose name he has forgotten, but it "rhymes with a female body part." Could it be "Mulva"? Elaine visits an old boyfriend who's in the hospital for an operation; he was once fat, thin she's interested again. Kramer gets an opportunity to witness the operation and he drags Jerry along, while watching they have an accident with a "Junior Mint."

  Kramer: Who's gonna turn down a Junior Mint? It's chocolate, it's peppermint -it's delicious!
  Jerry: That's true.
  Kramer: It's very refreshing!

  I love Google Earth! I recently was talking to my son who lives over a thousand miles from me and we both got on Google Earth and looked at each others houses.

  What we found was interesting......the picture we saw of each others houses was at least two or more years old! We could tell by landmarks and also the autos parked in our driveways! Weird!!

  Anyone else notice that? How could the information be so old?

  My mother, who deceased on 9-21-05, does also. That's why I'm in such a funk. I'm thinking about her death and how I was always so busy that I hardly had any time for her.

  Awe (((((Sylvia))))) those anniversary dates always get us.....happens to me too. I have managed to successfully with much planning on my part make it through an anniversary date without so much as a nanosecond of a thought about the "dates" past history.

  It helps to plan ahead, like you, I have so many "dates" wrapped up in memories of JW stuff and just about the time I think I'm doing good I start scrap booking again and there are those pictures......ugg! I have put most of the JW people in one box, not to be opened and some day I hope to have a burning box ceremony, I'm not there yet, sigh. My junk I'm holding onto, why???

  I got rid of all but my Bible™ and Reasoning™ book, I may have one of the Song Books™ and my old book bag with my old service record book, why? LOL I guess after nearly 50 years in the B'org that's scaled down a lot! I was smart I left it all with my X when I left him! LOL

  Who thinks Cannabis/Marihuana should be legalised?

  by lfcviking in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think in most countries it is illegal to use this drug, so do you think it should be decriminalised, legalised & taxed, made legal for the medical proffesion or should it remain completely illegal?

  please state your reasons for your choice.. lfcv.

  Just like back in the days of prohibition it's costing the Government too much to enforce the laws against illegal drugs and such. I think they should all be legalized so everyone who wants to use them can and at will without the stigma of being a criminal attached to them.

  That said I do wish those who wanted to use drugs could but only in the center of the USA like say Nebraska, give 'em Nebraska, let them stay there and do what they want but leave us "normal" people alone.

  If only I were Queen........
