  Corona with a slice of lime - that is one of my favourite drinks, but its only one to be hard after a particularly long journey, or a very hard day's work. I've done neither yet so I'll move onto Pure Sicilian Blood Red Orange Juice.

  ehh... we're lazy, Crumpet. We only eat fresh coconut when we're in Hawaii and my husband's family have a special tool for opening them. I use canned coconut milk for smoothies and such. I'm typically repulsed by canned foods but for some reason I can stand coconut milk and tomato sauce.

  For some reason I was reading too fast and misread that as "my husband's tool" and my jaw dropped as I tried to imagine what kind of appendage that might involve! LOL!

  Cannabis Free~

  yesterday i bought a pack of smokes called cannabis free.

  i thought that maybe if it was good, as in something unique i could save a pack for crumples when she gets here.

  so i lit one up in the car and proceeded to smoke it.

  I quite like those herbal bongs things - you know where you inhale steam and non mind altering herb essences. Wonder where i could get one of them from. Like the idea of yoga, sunrise and bubbling away thoughtfully for insight on the forthcoming day on a purifying bong.

  No I haven't, although I love coconut, in fact the night before I last I dreamt I was on an island drinking the milk out of one. I have a major problem with making it a regular ingredient of my smoothies though - in that I have never manage to crack one without mishap. I usually end up with bits in my eyes or missing altogether and hitting my thumb with the hammer.

  Can you advise a safe way to open a coconut?

  Worst thing I ever smoked was peach tea, it was akin to pouring a bottle of perfume down my neck.

  Its weird that my old packs are novelty items, but that's why I never throw anyway when I'm over there. However Canadian packets beat them all - you't got photographs of rotting lungs, unborn babies, congested hearts, bursting arteries and stuff on the packets.

  Reunions.....the aftermath

  by RAYZORBLADE in

  it's hard to believe, i joined this forum five years ago (january 2003).. i was happy to join here because it appeared at the time, to be a rather sane and welcoming place.

  i really enjoyed it.

  like any forum; i've been on others not related to jehovah's witnesses, and you see parallels.

  Thanks for posting that Rayzorblade. A cautionary tale!

  Even if they do leave; no guarantee it's going to be on the same level as your own personal recovery.

  From my point of view I think it would be hard to find anyone I used to know who wasn't streets ahead in terms of their own personal recovery than I am!

  I've encountered two former JW friends on this board though one of whom is Little Toe, who I knew from when I was little until I was 13 or 14 and reunited within 2005 and then I got to go to his wedding to Xena in 2007 and made friends I feel 100 times closer to than I did to 90% of anyone I knew as a JW and to be quite honest I really don't know what I'd do without.

  In a sense my old JW past has given me a new family I never would otherwise have met, which is a great solace from losing my own family to the borg.

  So from my point of view - reunions can be MOST EXCELLENT!
