  My partner gets a bit grumpy if I'm here in the evening, he'll remind me over and over that theres a programme on tv that I usually watch, or he'll say "Right, I'm going out" or just make up an excuse why he needs to use the computer, I asked him to help me write a post a few weeks ago, it was on a topic he knows a lot about and usually is only too happy to talk about but he told me he couldn't be bothered.

  As a compromise I try to stick to coming here mainly in the day while hes at work, and I don't post much at weekends either.

  Are you a ‘fixer’?

  are you a fixer or a buyer?.

  when i was a little kid, i mean from about four-years-old, i was fascinated with what made things tick.

  mom knew better than to leave me alone without something really interesting to figure out.

  You sound like my boyfriend, hes a fixer too, infact my house is constantly cluttered with other peoples junk that he is fixing for them.

  His mum told me how when he was a kid he made an actual working lawn mower out of mechano, also a device for switching light switches on and off.

  Its quite a talent actually and hes saved people so much money, and it keeps him out of trouble.

  To his horror I'm the opposite, if it doesn't work buy a new one, thats my motto,

  i must say, i never thought that i would see the day when i would find a site about disillusioned (mostly) jehovah's witnesses, but low and behold...one truly exists.

  first let me start off by saying thank you to the creators of this site, and i'll have you know that i've been lurking for several days now and i am just finding the time to finally log on.

  i've been a member of the borg for over 20 years now, been baptised for about 14 of those years and now i find myself in the most unusual of places.

  disfellowshipped for gluttony?

  by onintwo in

  hello jwd board community.

  just wondering.. has anyone ever heard of a person being disfellowshipped for the terrible sin of gluttony?

  isn't it ranked right up there with drunkeness, adultery, murder, etc.?.

  I've never heared of anyone ever getting into trouble for gluttony, although if this were to happen it would explain why every sister in my local congregation is constantly on a diet, or maybe thats just vanity.

  seeing as i'm dowloading songs so i can blast them at the neighbour kids, i was thinking, what songs stand the test of time?

  what songs do you listen to over and over again and never get tired of.

  here's my list.. if you tolerate this - manic street preachers.

  Oh, there are so many.

  Anything by Guns N Roses, or Bob Marley and I love Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd too, but really, the list could be endless.

  I don't smoke anymore but when I did it was Malboro lights and then Richmond Menthol.

  I love the smell of a pipe, reminds me of my grandad, but don't think I'd suit one.

  Yet another "My Story"

  by mapleaf18 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  my story: and i apologize in advance for the long post.. i was born to special pio parents and i attended my first meeting when i was 6 days old, which was unusual in the 50s and 60s because babies were usually quarantined for the first month or so.

  my mother had a poor childhood and was often placed with uncaring relatives which served as foster homes.

  my father was raised in a single parent home by his divorced mother who was looking for answers.

  This is the second story today to bring tears to my eyes, those witnesses really have a lot to be sorry for, I just hope that someone out there who is considering treating their kids the same will read this and learn something.
