Diamonds, Are They a Scam?
by Satanus inwatching the history channel on all the effort, expense and equipment that goes into mining them, cutting and polishing them, the above question occured to me.
so, except for industrial uses, what is it about them?
i mean, as far as looking at them, glass worth less than a nickel can look the same.

Thanks for posting the link. I guess painting the porch, staining the deck, and mowing the lawn can wait a few months. And who'll notice a few extra layers of dust on the motorcycle? Thanks again.

A bit too harsh in my opinion.
Let's review. She lost her driving priviledges with a DUI and then got cited 3 times for driving suspended. She failed to go to court ordered classes. If you or I thumbed our noses at the law and got caught, would being sent to jail for 45 days be too harsh? Would it be unexpected? Young Ms Hilton should follow Martha Stewart's lead and do the time with little protest or delay. When she gets out she can do the talk show circuit and sell her story to the highest bidder.
A couple of guys at work got DUIs last summer. They lost their Commercial Drivers License (CDL) priviledges for 1 year. The employer has a policy that says if you lose your license for 6 months you are fired. The employees jobs had CDL requirements so they were terminated. Comparing losing your livelihood to spending 45 days in jail, which consequence would you rather face?

Gun control logic
by Gregor inthe v tech shooter bought his guns legally.
gun control laws don't stop this kind of determined killer anywhere in the world.
the defenseless victims couldn't carry a gun legally on campus if they had one.

weapons are BIG MONEY for the rich and powerful
Yes indeed. Big money in the firearms business. I get a kick reading posts from Europe and Britain regarding America's appalling attitude towards firearms. Yet they don't seem to protest the fact that many "American" guns are foreign in origin. Here's a short list:
Winchester and Browning - Belgium (firearms actually made in Japan where gun ownership is forbidden)
Glock - Swiss and German
Smith and Wesson - Britain
Beretta - Italy
I guess people in Europe and Britain, while looking down on firearms being in the hands of citizens, don't mind the profits made from the manufacture and sale of guns to us trigger happy Yanks.
Tarus is a popular brand in the States also. The company in Brazilian.

Powerball Winner Says He's Cursed by His Jackpot

Jehovah is using Whittaker as an example to us all that gambling is a SIN. If you are tempted to buy a powerball ticket just remember that if you win the jackpot your earthly life will be miserable. If you buy a powerball ticket and don't win, well God will kill you anyway so I guess either way you are screwed.

Counting Time
by Xena ini don't know about anyone else but this could be the source of major contention between dubs in my halls.
you had those who started their time as soon as you pulled out of the hall parking lot (me), those who counted from the first knock at the door or laundry mat visited, and the die hards who didn't start until they actually spoke to someone(my sister).
my sister and i would go round and round about this, i finally just pretended to start my time when she did just to shut her up.

It has been a long, long time since I have been involved in this crap, but reading this thread - sheesh! I had no idea that counting time had so many variations. I guess I shouldn't be surprised considering the pharisitical nature of this religion. Given that Jehovah's Witnesses honestly believe, at least the devout do, that EVERYTHING they do is a witness for Jehovah, I would suggest counting all time, every day. If anybody reading this still turns in time slips, turn in 720 hours for April. Only if you consider yourself to be a true minister of Jehovah though.
