so i met this girl last night whose best friend is best friends with joel engardio.
i said that i would really like to talk to him and she said that she could get me his phone number and he would be happy to speak with me.
i haven't seen the film "knocking" yet,...so i don't really know what i would discuss with him at this point.
and, THE HOMOSEXUAL COMMUNITY should be PISSED at him for making this film. they should screen it @ the frameline film fest in SF, he wouldn't make it out alive....i consider it similar to making a nazi propaganda film after WW2 and being jewish.
as a gay xjw I made a similar comparison in an earlier thread regarding his producing this documentary.
as many of you know, i've been writing letters to family members telling them how damn stupid i think the gb is; providing proofs of all their comedic gaffs (building mansions for prophets and the like) including some of their most outlandish quotes-which i know all of us can remember verbatim.
spurned on by mary and others in this site, i've decided that i will try a new ploy.
my family reunion is every labor day and i've decided to wear a tee shirt to it with russell, rutherford, and franz's images on it... i will include images of a pyramid, beth sarim, on the front and 607?
1927 "The face of the deep, of course, would be toward the Pleiades, which are claimed to be the habitation of Jehovah." (Creation; 1927; 2,175,000 ed.; p. 94)
1928 "The constellation of the seven stars forming the Pleiades appears to be the crowning center around which the known systems of the planets revolve even as our sun's planets obey the sun and travel in their respective orbits. It has been suggested, and with much weight, that one of the stars of that group is the dwelling-place of Jehovah and the place of the highest heavens;..." (Reconciliation; 1928; p. 14)
1928 "The constellation of the Pleiades is a small one compared with others which scientific instruments disclose to the wondering eyes of man. But the greatness in size of other stars or planets is small when compared with the Pleiades in importance, because the Pleiades is the place of the eternal throne of God." (Reconciliation; 1928; p. 14)
flipper again.
personally my all time favorite song?
stairway to heaven by led zeppelin.one of my top favorite groups ,too.
Smile sung by Nat King Cole
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through
for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile what’s the use of crying
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you’ll just
Smile
i'm all alone tonight.
so i thought i'd pour myself a nice drink and hang out here for awhile.
i'm having a glass of scotch (dewar's) on the rocks!!!
Hey Codeblue! I haven't had a drink but thinking about it. LRG
you find yourself with a couple of hours to yourself - what do you to relax and make yourself feel good without imbibing substances?
what does your partner like to do?.
Aside from any substance or sex I try to find something hilarious to watch on TV to get my mind of things. LRG
i regularly talk to a poster on this board via the pm system...............mainly because i like his mind.......today he suggested in reply to something i had said that basically men and women dont do friendship.........he asked the question 'why do people even bother with each other if they dont fancy each others intimacy?
'...............not that he was suggesting this about us.........but i am just wondering what you lot think.. it has been my experience to have some wonderful men friends...........i love mens company and their conversation..........now i am wondering if all those 'mates' were/are after something else............well not really........i am pretty sure at least some of them arent.. so whats your view/experience.........can men and women just be good friends.. oh and to my friend who i pm.........this is not a criticism of you.........i am interested in what others experiences are..........and i will give you a big kiss (on the cheek) one day when i see ya to make up for it.......... fi.
25% of men are deep and robust thinkers, wonderers, inventors and geniuses whose grasp of sanity is firm and whose passion for art and exploration are breath-taking. They are lightning in a bottle. Rare....so very, very rare!
I'd like to think Im in that 25% LOL!!

I dont think Crumpet and I could be "just good friends"
We get along much too well for "just good friends" - we're awesome friends
literally and figuratively.... if you don't know my story, its the basic "i'm gay and from a family of jws" and lately it hasn't been going well.
i'm still saving up to move out, but that "meeting" i was suppose to have with the elders is scheduled tonight.
it was scheduled tuesday night but i dodged that bitch hard.
Saywhat:
Im so sorry that you are having to go through that. I can totally understand being caught in the middle of all of this. I left the org and moved away from my family and hometown to get away from the cong and family almost 10 years ago so I can just finally breathe and find out who I am. I had to come to terms with my sexual orientation and admit to myself that I am gay but I didn't not want to admit that to myself and remain a JW; at that time I left not because I wanted to go out and have wild sex with everyone with 3 legs but because I didn't want to stay in a organization full of judgemental people who would shun me the second they found out I was gay whether I acted on it or not. I know moving away isn't always the option at the time you are dealing with this, I had to plan my move and fade and it took a few years; it depends on the circumstances of each individual. My immediate family isn't in the organization now, just other relatives and friends from my hometown. Nevertheless I have never really officially come out to my parents but Im sure my mother knows. I have only discussed that part of my life with my older sister.
Anyway, if you ever need to vent send me a PM and I will send you my contact info.
Take care
LRG
