Hi Skipper

It would be great if the dubs each gave a little something to help thier communities out but I wouldn't hold my breath. Most of um are more interested in receiving that giving. A lesson well learned from their masters.

This was a great thing to read and I know from personal experience how wonderful the feeling is when you help someone out. And when you do it anonamously the feeling is even a bigger high.

Hope you had a nice holiday yesterday

Sunny (greatful as hell everyday of the year for all that she has)

i just wanted to hear from the rest of y'all about what you do for the holidays.

even after leaving in 92, i've never put up a xmas tree or cooked a turkey.

my thanksgiving dinner tonight was a lobster, and i ate alone as usual.

Hi Mike

I worked today.

Thats OK cause it was a trade off. If I work today I can have the next 6 days off to make a trip to Hawaii to help my oldest brother celebrate he and his wifes golden anniversary. ( did I say he was much, much older than I? LOL). They are having a big bash on the big Island. (pritty good trade off don't you think?). My honey is out of town. He can't go with me on the trip (has taken to much time off already this year) so I sent him to his folks to spend the holiday. I know that made them happy. He took his Harley and he and his Dad (who has one too) are going to spend the day Sat riding together. Can you believe my husband's Dad still rides and he is an old Dude!

I'm going to trudge down to my daughters and have turkey with her and her husband and my two beautiful grandchidren in a few minutes.

Christmas is going to be a big thing this year. My sister and brother in law sold their home at the beach and moved out to the desert so my sister and I would be closer. Next to my husband she is my best friend. So my children and her children and granchildren are all coming (some from far away) to her new house and we are going to have a big family celebration. Its not the xmas thing. Its that we are all together.

Maybe you could just go to the store and buy you a little live tree. That way you could plant it afterwards. They have some cute ones with the goodies already on um. I feel the same way as you about presents. I love to see the looks on the kids faces when they open their surprizes. That is the greatest present I could ever get.

So you had lobster today? Yummy! Gosh, where in the rulebook does it say ya have to have turkey?

Well, gotta go, the turkey is waiting and I don't want to be late.

I AM SO GRATEFUL TODAY!

I hate JW's

by ashitaka in

jw
friends

i hate all jw's for making my wife upset when they send their commanders (elders) to harass my wife for not going to meetings.

i'd like to say f**k you to all people who have hurt my wife and i and continue to do so.

these f**king c***s continually try to hurt my wife because she won't kiss their asses.

******************My father was a wretched man who was empowered by the JW's to beat the shit out of me every nite.***********

I'm sorry Ash. The children seem to be the most helpless victums of the WTS. Not to say your Dad isn't personally responsible for what he did to you, because he is.

I can't blame you for all your anger. I have so much of it myself. I'm trying so hard to work on it but it isn't easy.

I feel for you and your wife. Wishing your wife's parents away and their actually going away are two different things. You two need to stick together and you will get through it.

Have you thought about relocating? Far,far away from them and the JWs that you know? If possible?

Just a thought

Sunny

PS. I pritty much hate um too...."they don't destroy familys" what a laugh!

by DB in

jw
friends

the year is coming to a close.

perhaps it's a good time to think about some "awards" for the posters and/or items appearing on this site.

any suggestions?.

California Sunshine

Thank you DB and Ang for helping me find that thread.

I read it again and it made me feel just as good as the first time I read it.

Ladies and Gentlemen, (I use the term loosely)

I am proud to nominate BlueSapphire for the love and courage award for the year 2001. Take a bow Blue!

I would love to see Blue Saphire at least receive an honorable mention for her post on not allowing your family to shun you.

tried to go back and find it but was unsuccessful.

What an inspiration she was that day.

Which MALE body type do you prefer?

by ItsJustMe in

jw
friends

personally, i like under 6', muscular, dark eyes, curly dark hair.. self-confidence is a must, as is laughing at my jokes!

California Sunshine

Men, like woman, come in many delightful shapes and sizes.

hmmmmmmm, what do I prefer..........

I Like a guy with a little meat (no pun intended) on his bones.

Gentle
kind
Doesn't always think he's right.
Isn't embarressed to wipe a little tear away at the movies.
Willing to stand up to adversity.
A warm sense of humor.

Gosh, I guess I want more than is available...

Looks are a fleeting thing.....but a warm and loving personality goes a long way to make any guy handsome.

Dubla,

Glad you are keeping YK on his toes.

Haven't seen him for a while...perhaps the little "welcher" is resting after his battle with you.

Don't mean to hijack your thread. Thanks for the link.

Dearest Randy,

Thank you a thousand times for all the hard work you have done.

When I discovered your site I was searching for so many answers.

Good...

He's with Allah now. Wonder what Allah's first words were to him?

"Welcome my son", or "You murdering dog"?

Hey dubla...you still going at it with YaKnow?
