  Oh I hear ya!!!! I love me some hot wings too, blue cheese dressing AND ice cold beer....I make about 30 pounds of wings for Superbowl every year, although this year I may have to make more, we've got a few more friends coming over to watch the game .....M M Good!!!!

  I deep fry them, and freeze them. Then, the day of the game, I make up the sauce, using Louisiana Hot sauce and butter, coat the frozen wings and re-heat in the oven....

  ....yup,....* sigh*.... can't wait for the game to start,....I have a cravin'.

  Wings, or "drumettes" as the actual piece is sometimes called. Or boneless skinless breasts sliced into strips, or even drumsticks. Place in large plastic freezer bag. Add touch of mayonaise, italian dressing, and every type of hot you can find. Dave's insanity, cayenne, tobasco...........any and all. Marinate overnight. Grill. Dip in a combo of mayo and Yucatan Sunshine (or hot sauce of choice) or blue cheese dressing (for wimps, but mighty tasty). MMMMmmmmmmm

  ooh, this sounds yummy too....will try!!

  i wonder how many persons there are that had they got caught, would've been disfellowshipped for what they were doing.

  by jw standards, should you have been disfellowshipped by now??

  Yep. Lessee: Drunkeness, immorality, idolatry, blasphemy, not following spiritual direction, lying, avarice, education, smoking, gambling, spiritism, loose conduct and anger.

  And that was just on the drive home from work last night!

  You have FAR too much fun for one evening, Rising Eagle...that in itself should be a d'fing offense...lol

  Well, in my old congregation, Fornication was something only one of two elders got away with....but anyone else found to have engaged in it, was df'd.

  Believing Everything Someone Tells You

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  are you the type of person that believes everything a person says?.

  typically, my radar goes up, especially if a person either brags about all his or her accomplishments or tells you a sob story about how awful their life is.. i was reading here today about how some posters have been upset with others for either feeling someone is fraudulent or is uncaring or caring too much.. the funny thing is that most of us never really know who or what a person/poster is all about.

  they could be perfectly upfront and tell you everything in a most truthful way or they could be conning you.

  I tend to take everything I see and read and hear, with a grain of salt. No, you can't always tell if someone is lying or telling tall tales, but eventually, they trip themselves up. They always do. The truth, does come out.....and I don't go shelling out to anybody, unless it's for certain that someone I know and trust, knows the person and their background.

  A girl can't be too careful you know.....

  However, people will be people, and for every fraudulent person that has been here, there are double or triple (or more) that many who are genuine. It won't make me stop posting here.

  Do you let your dub relatives watch your kids?

  by avishai in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this was mentioned on another topic but it needs it's own thread.

  ok, i'm gonna say it again.

  if your relatives will not speak to you.... do not let them have any contact with your children, period.

  No, my kids have never gone to my parents' place, without us. My boys are in their early teens now, and my parents have never asked to have them, even when we were good little dubs.

  It used to really bother me, because my kids have never really had the "grandparent" experience, plus the fact that my mom always thinks of my brothers' kids, never mine....but it doesn't bother me now. It's my parents' loss. My kids could care less, if Gramma and Grampa are here...or if they called.

  My Bethel experience

  by new boy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  because of the length of this, it will be done in two parts.

  part 1. i when to bethel march 21,1970. at the time you had to be a pioneer for two years to apply, by the time i left in 1974 they were calling people in who had never pioneered..........average stay was 5 months ( they had signed up for 4 years)..........the reason they left was......well, it was hell.. one of the reasons was, knorr hated bethelites, but he loved the gilead students and why?

  because when they screwed up they were thousands of miles away!........just before i got there, they had kicked out over 60!

  Hi New Boy..interesting read. When can we expect part 2??

  When I was a kid, around 14, or so, we went on a bus tour of the Canadian Bethel. I remember feeling like I'd entered another world. It was like a hospital, or a building where they conducted science experiments....very sterile,.... too clean for my liking. I felt claustrophobic. I knew right then and there, that Bethel was no place for me. It gave me the heebie-jeebies, and I couldn't wait to get out of there.

  well lets get off to a good start for the year by using jesus to justify staying with your abusive husband:.

  thursday, january 3. when [jesus] was being reviled, he did not go reviling in return.

  when he was suffering, he did not go threatening.-1 pet.

  My sister, a doctor in Red Deer, Alberta, tells the following local Witness story of abuse. A Witness woman leaves her abusive JW husband against the advice of the elders. She is disfellowshipped. He marries again, he kills the second wife.

  Tell me how this sort of testimony affects the local community.

  Geezuz!!!! So wife "A", is df'd, because she left, wife "B" is dead, and nobody talks to wife "A", because she dared to leave her abusive husband?! OMG!!! And what happened to said, abusive husband ???? This is just horse*#@!.....what would happen if the wife had been the abuser??? This makes me so damned mad!
