  "If I had all the money in the world I would.........."

  by anewme in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i thought this would be a fun and mentally healthy question to ponder!

  i feel better already just to think of this possibility!

  for me, before giving away alot of it to charities i would first buy a couple of gorgeous houses strategically set in beautiful surroundings where i could travel throughout the year and avoid harsh winter temperatures.

  I would keep it all for myself and have a large masion with a Rolls-Royce. Then I would live off the interest.

  Excuse me, is that an Uzi?

  Why yes it is. Self defense is no laughing matter. That's why I pack the number one submachine gun, an Uzi.

  i spent many many years peforming on the cello before becoming a witness at 18 and being encouraged to quit all my symphony associations etc which i obediently did.

  i was a soloist once with a community symphony and it was a wonderful experience!

  i have a recording of the concerto i performed.

  I think clarinets should all be burned. Who plays a clarinet after band and how many young people were turned off from music after being handed a clarinet?

  Bah! Only people who can't play the clarinet with skill and finesse would say that.

  For a clarinet to sound good, you have to be gentle, yet firm as if you were making love to a beautiful woman.

  are cut off from your family or friends because they are considered a danger to your cult-like beliefs.

  are taught everything through repetition,repetition,repetition.. are taught to fear for your life (everlasting) if you leave it.. question its teachings you are doomed.. everything outside of its organization is a tool of satan.

  I've never had a corporation cut me off from family. I doubt that corprations see outsiders as tools of Satan, more like competition.

  Close enough!

  While the simplest explanation is usually the best, it is not logical to say that the best explanation is true.

  In the past I've played the clarinet, the tenor saxophone, the trombone, and the piano (the piano is the instrument I spent the least amount of time on due to parents not having money for lessons).

  I would like to play the organ.

  What funny "Saying" do you sometimes use?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  here in quebec, one funny expression people say is "donne a manger a un cochon, et il viendra chier sur ton perron" .

  word for word in english this would mean: feed a pig, and he will shit on your porch.

  in other words, sometimes you try to be nice to people, and they don't always try to be nice to you in return.. .

  Don't expect ANYTHING from ANYONE.

  annual causes of death in america .

  one look at the leading causes of death in america should alert any thinking being to the idea that something truly is amiss with our government and the information they are feeding us.

  Personally, I believe we should re-open the opium dens!

  Why should we ban a natural product?
