Anyone using Internet Explorer 7 Beta? What do you think? Do you like? I have installed it and it so far functions really well, it has a much sleeker apperance than IE6. You gain approx 20% screen space compared to IE6. It has a handy delete all button in its properties to delete cookies, history, etc.... Handy when you should not be on this site.
late.
i've heard that this is somewhere in the magazines, but i have no clue where.
also, does anybody know where (or even if) the watchtower ever fed off the idea that we only use a fraction of our brains, an idea that has proven to be false?
i heard so many people talk about this in discussion, but have been unable to locate it in a publication.
These perceptions are usually perpetuated by elders/CO's during friendly chat or from the platform. I wrote about an experience with the 10% myth I had with our CO a few years ago.

Trying to disprove evolution by arguing that humans never use the full capacity of our brains within our given lifetime runs into complications when we realize that the same holds true to many animals such as whales, chimps, and dolphins........... Well, maybe they have a hope of life everlasting as well.

i was just wondering how many here are from california, i noticed several and just wanted to see how many of us there are.. .
lola
LA area
the talk given today sounded pretty convincing.
facts were stated about how our body is designed to live forever (the brain, blood vessels etc) and how all these intricated details about the human body raises us to ask the question: "did not jehovah design us with the purpose of living forever?
now i've read the threads about how there just would not be enough room in the world for all those people.
My cat just told me she wants to live forever..........
She meowed how she was amazingly made and that the 16 to 20 years of life felines live is not enough time to develop her hunting skills... If she lived to 200 years she said that even I could become her prey........
But then she hastly turned around and started liking her but..........
Oh well

anyone out there getting an xbox 360 tomorrow, 11/22, the first day it goes on sale.. what are your thoughts on the system?
Update:
Riko- Started playing PDZ, the game looks great but not nearly as great as on HD tvs that display the 360 at stores.
I am now looking for a HD TV in the $1000-$2000 range, any suggestions?
I have not played the online part of it yet but from people I've talked to that is where this game shines.
I only played like 35 minutes of the game because I have been playing this game I bought for $4 from the live arcade called Geometry Wars, this game is fast, easy to learn and beautiful. It is a 2D game but it is addicting it reminds me of a cross between Asteriods anf Tempest 2000.
So far very happy with 360.
This live arcade and Microsoft Points bundle I think has a lot of potential.
the elders frown upon chewing gum at the kingdom hall and we have had a locals needs part where it was mentioned.
is/was chewing gum at your hall a no-no?
When I was a kid we had a local needs about chewing gum that was the best and funniest local needs I have ever seen. A large screen TV was used to showcase a mock media report that was video taped and was going to show what happens to gum when you drop it inside or outside the KH. The kids in the hall where asked to sit at the front of because we where the targeted crowd. The media report started with the elder telling us that their was a bad report on TV about chewing gum at the hall as all the kids start watching intently the video start playing and the reporter standing in front of the hall starts his dialogue but that is as far as I remember because I had no I idea my dad was going to be the reporter and when I saw this I started laughing loudly.
Boy was that funny, but quite memorable. They actually did a really cool job with this.

I got mine last night and was able to play with it a little. My impressions of it so far are positive. The online service is great and aesthetically it just looks awesome. I bought two games for it Perfect Dark and Kameo I didn't get a chance to play them yet. I networked it to my PC and was watching my photos and playing my music on my TV connected to my 5.1 surround sound in my living room. I don’t yet have a HD TV but it still looks great.
This system is much more powerful than a cost comparable PC. At $400 you get a system that has three 3.2 GHz processors as its CPU, 512 MB of RAM and a custom ATI video card. (http://www.xbox.com/en-US/hardware/xbox360/powerplay.htm)
A comparable computer would be more like an Alienware, which cost up to $3000.

a friend of mind went to elder school recently and i convoy the following for him: .
the co asked him previously if he could assist with a demonstration showing the superiority of wtbts education to university education.
my friend holds a few masters' degrees and will be starting a phd program soon so the co thought he would be an excellent candidate to demonstrate the superiority of wtbts education, but there was a little problem my friend he said no.
Nic- actually he has posted four to six times recently, he joined a few weeks ago but has been lurking for some time. He just did not want to post this but was ok with me posting for him

Robdar- I actually lived with my friend longer than our schooling experience and that is where we experienced many of the JW underground experiences with different in crowds, but yes I did not receive a liberal arts degreee.
My intent in speaking about the brother that got a masters degree in ceramics is not to belittle that degree since I am in favor of individuals pursuing education in whatever they love. This brother may have not been able to get the high paying job as someone receiving a degree in computer science, engineering, business administration, etc........... but if this is what he enjoys, the more power to him. Hopefully he would strive to be the best in his field. The issue once againg like in many other situation is the WT, how disengenouis can they be about their higher education bashing.
I would respect this religion a great lot more in they didn't speak out of both ends of their mouths.
