or was that bad grammar?.

i know it makes me an evil bird but i was giggling at farkels displeasure at bad grammar and spelling in another post.. i dont mind misspellings (is that spelled right?

) but stuff like r u 4 reeel?

I bet he loves STFU. ;-) Really though folks, it is only considerate to take the minuscale of extra effort when composing your posts to allow the reader to easily understand what you're saying. Making posts hard to read because of laziness is not a quality I admire.

Are you the same person "Online" as in "Real Life"?

.

maybe most of you, who see me post, think that i talk alot because i start many threads, but i'm way more quiet in real life.. how about you, are you the same online as in real life?

My personality morphs to fit the people I'm around. I tend to say smartass things in real life, but am only a noticible vocal presence around close friends. I tend to talk more online, however, simply because I don't have to worry about cutting someone off.

Page 5 is having problems because someone embedded a web page that exceeded it's bandwidth quota for the month and is shut down. When you go to page 5, the browser is automatically forwarded to the notification page. To see page 5 posts, you'll have to load page 5 but then hit stop quickly before the page is redirected. Whoever embedded that page needs to edit it out.

Guys, you'll still be able to see his site for a bit. Just google davidgladden, then google will have a link to their cached version of the site. I don't know when it'll be updated though, so if you want anything you'll have to get it soon.

Why do women make up the majority?

i want to pose what is to me an interesting question: .

why is there a preponderance of women in religion?

i think we all agree that females do make up the majority of pretty much every religion, including jw's, but why?

John Doe

Yeah, sorry LDH. I'm a terrible typist. For what it's worth, I agree that men are as emotional as women (except for the whole pms thing. :-) We just don't want to talk about it--difference in how we're socialized.

Elders accuse us of Mail Fraud

by inbyathread in

well the sh*t has finally hit the fan now.

it seems that several families in the neillsville / marshfield area have received packages with apostatetm material enclosed.

at the service meeting last thursday night in two (count them) two congregations the elders have announced that a mail fraud scheme is in the area with packages arriving at publishers homes.

John Doe

This can in no way be construed as a fraudulent attempt to intercept mail. Only if the elders actually stole the mail could it be considered as such. If you voluntarily give your mail to someone, regardless of what they've told you, you have no claim. Furthermore, even if there were such a claim, the recipient of the mail would have to make a complaint, would they not? I wish people would stick to legitimate gripes, not legal bs that's a stretch to even relate to the situation at hand.
