you get annoyed when one of your threads peters out...or you make a comment on someone elses thread and it goes unacknowledged....but isnt it great when an old thread you'd forgotten about gets ressurected
sometimes I feel like I am starving to death here... and just when I am near to cyber death in this place, someone toss a crumb of acknowledgement and sustains my emaciated cyber hide for another day
man that is sheer poetry
hi dragonlady-shania-sweet tee-zen nudist

this was in the "dumbed down awake!
" thread:sure enough, the figure represents the number of magazines printed, not circulated.
it makes me wonder if the average magazine placements recorded in the km each month is actually magazines placed or the number of magazines printed, or shipped out of bethel.. .
i know a young ms who was magazine servant way back when we used to have to pay for them..remember that....there was a pioneer rate but the mag department always ran at a loss because any left over mags were charged to publisher rates...except his..he was always in credit and none of the elders could work it out and would question him and he would show them the figures...turns out he had devised a scheme whereby any leftover mags were put through as pioneer rate and were covered by mags already payed for at pub rate..or something..got away with it for years till one day he was caught burning a huge stash of mags round the back of the kh...he still went on to become a co

why is everything in dub-land put through the "pagan" filter.
it hasn't resulted in a better "dub", they're a vile bunch as a whole.. .
example: what if someone out of the goodness of their heart and for no apparent reason wanted to celebrate (say without the traditional cake w/candles) the "birthday" of their child.
Who Invented the Necktie? BY AWAKE! CORRESPONDENT IN GERMANY AROUND the world some 600 million men wear them regularly. In Germany the average man owns about 20 neckties. Many a man has wondered with some irritation, while putting on a necktie, ?Whose idea was this, anyway?? Where did the tie originate? Steenkerke, a town in Belgium, claims the honor of having "invented" the necktie. In 1692, English forces made a surprise attack on French troops stationed there. According to the German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung, "the [French] officers had no time to dress correctly. But without ado, they tied their uniform scarves around the neck with a loose knot and pushed the ends through the buttonholes of their jacket. Voilà, the birth of the necktie in its original form." However, the soldiers? fashion novelty was not exactly unprecedented. Experts on the history of neckties point out that centuries earlier, warriors for the Chinese emperor Cheng (Shih Huang Ti) wore a scarflike cloth folded around the neck, indicating their rank. Perhaps the most famous, though, were the scarves worn by Croatians fighting for King Louis XIV of France. During a victory parade in Paris, the French were so taken by the Croatians? scarves that they called them cravates, from Cravate, a Croat, and began wearing the scarves as well. "From then on," writes the aforementioned newspaper, "there was no stopping necktie fashions, although the soldiers in Steenkerke were the first to make the scarf into a knotted tie." During the French Revolution (1789-99), a man would indicate his political inclination by the color of the "croat," or scarf, around his neck. In the 19th century, elegant European society "discovered" this form of attire. It was then that the cravat was elevated from the military and political arena and entered the wardrobe of the male population at large. Today the necktie is more than accepted in many societies worldwide; in certain settings, it is even mandatory.
completely military history............but we still had to wear them (im not complaining..i love ties)
i am sure the subject is not very descriptive and for this i appologize.. i would like some assistnace in biblical references that say how homosexuality should be viewed and how one should deal with another that is homosexual or that has homosexual friends even if they non study's daughter says she and this other girl aren't 'doing anything'.
i know this is long winded, so i will just now finally get to the point.. i am a grandmother that has recently taken back up studying after a 1-2 year pause.
when i had first started studying, my daughter was also studying and we had our study togeather as i was staying with she and her husband because she had medical trouble and could not care for their 3 children when he was gone to work.
type in 'gay witness' into any search engine...and you will get access to how jws are coping..struggling..giving in to their homosexual tendancies...some of the sites are run by active jws and they also explain why it is even now not a good idea to let on about ones sexuality even though it is not being acted upon
