my wife and i have a new cat - a 7 month old blue smoke persian named olly (pedigree name is pannonius olympian).
olympian he is too - weighing in at 5kg already !!.
he's extremely timid, and hides pretty much constantly, meowing (squeaking now cos i think he's made his throat sore, poor mite).
D.!
How can you say that! I just hope it isn't true, what you did. If so, it was very irresponsible. Cats depend on you, and people like me are working hard everyday to save those poor strays and abandonned animals.

i did, i was thinking of how many jws are either a little weird, a bit eccentric or even borderline crazy!
we had one man in our hall that used to love giving people he liked duck eggs.
he'd try to get you to eat them before meetings for field service.
There was one man...it was a bit sad, really. He studied with my father for a bit, but everyone knew he was only doing it for the compagny. He swore he had stoped smoking and he came into the hall smelling of smoke covered with lots of cheap cologne. He would walk in and sit right in the middle or front of the hall and open up one of the many books and volumes he had brought. They were all JW books, of course, but so of topic that it was almost funny. He was barely listening to a word said on the stage, he would read and loudly turn the pages ( and licking his thumb) of his books all trough the meetings. That got all the sisters gossiping after the meetings.
ok so its nearly christmass and i'm thinking of celebrating it for the first time, but i feel alittle wrong in doing so, i know all the witness reasoning of why its wrong and just wondered what your reasons are as to why its right!.
i have a 3 year old little girl and would love to make it nice for her (tho my family would go mad!
) im thinking of getting a baby tree (one that can easily be hidden!
I for one, have embraced all the different origins of this celebration. I love that it's got such interesting and old traditions going back to the times of pagans of different cultures. It's fun to know what logs, trees, decorations, socks all come from. It gets me even more in the christmas spirit. I don't see it as religious at all though...unless love is your religion.

Yes, there is! I love Lulu, and I'll go check that calendar out.:P
For those who are interested, I've got one calendar and children books there, too. Search for Liliane Grenier, if you all want to have a look.
Hihi...even wanderlustguy's one? Surely there must be a line you wouldn't cross!? (Again, please don't change it, what you have now is very representative and iconic for yourself on this board.)
overtime, overtime!
the thing that was a kill-joy for me was going overtime, just ask my wife and kids.
my entire day would be ruined.
My congregation was a very strict one about going over-time. It almost never happened that the meetings would finish later, actually they were about 5 minutes shorters quite often.
We had this very stern elder who would get up from his seat the moment a part was starting to go longer then it's supposed time. He would walk slowly to the back and stare sternly at the speaker who would get the willies and wrap it all up. lol
How cute! It looks just like my little Luna...but I agree, I like you actual one better.:P
-Hey D.,
If I asked you kindly, would you even go as far as changing that pointing avatar of yours?lol Kidding, I love it.
i want you to know that you have destroyed a family because of your lies about jehovah and his organization.
a family member went apostate and has turned his back on jehovah.
he told us he is never coming back and i know he went and visited internet sites.
It's really too bad that he/she did even reply, I would have paid good money to see that.
well it's my first christmas and i am excited!!!!
i am shopping for giftola's, and on saturday the b/f bought me my very first christmas tree!
hurrah!!!!.
I was wondering....do you guys have a tip to make the tree stand verticaly and not do it's crooked thing? Mine was straight when I put it up, but now it's bending a bit. (plastic tree, by the way.lol)
