today as i was pulling into my driveway i noticed two young mormon "elders" at my neighbor's house.
they stood on the porch and watched me pull into my garage, obviously had just been at my house.
i thought for sure they would be marching right over to inquire as to whether i was interested in learning about their church.
I would have fallen off your porch or broken your pots too, Princess.
WHO expects such a beautiful woman to open the door?
(Oh, you only bake brownies for your husband? Guess I lost points there.)

well tonight i went out with my lady friend, janie.
(she is not the girl that i recently lost my virginity to.
that is another special lady.
You're no chump if you realize 'love' is not love at all, but a sensation we get when it's time to F#@*!
Give her the time she needs, slip her ole Eager Eddie, and then tell us how you feel afterward.

jehovahs witnesses are under a grand and multi-faceted illusion that has been fabricated and is being maintained by the society.
one such facet of that great illusion is that jws are actually proclaiming gods kingdom and teaching people the truth about god and jesus.
it was only a few years ago (hey, im not the brightest candle on the cake!
I've really enjoyed your post, Frenchy. Scully, you too.
I am proud of myself in that during the 4 years I spent my last congregation (after I left home and became a starving college student) I can only remember putting a contribution in the box once!
I used to get the magazines in Spanish and English.
I must say that at least the Spanish speakers appreciated the literature. If it weren't for them, field service would have been even more EXTREMELY dull.

Who is Cherie? Is that Tony B's wife?
Pardon my ignorance; I'm an American and I don't watch C-SPAN. (if you've not heard of C-span, then perhaps I'll feel a little better)
BTW, you are kidding about me looking like him, right?

greetings gentle posters,.
i have been inspired to write this by the following quotes from various posters on a thread started by amnesian titled the ex-[elders] files: eyes wide shut.. the following was quoted by amnesian from various responses to a thread started by amazing titled: ex-jw women, your side.. thanks for asking!...thank you amazing for asking that question...just my 2 cents.
thanks for letting me share...amazing, this is a great topic!...amazing, great idea...thanks for starting this thread amazing...what an excellent topic.
I thought that was silly too, Abaddon. Then one day I realized it was true. At least of the old gay men my roomate knows. They are at the 'domestic partenship' stage, however.
But I think these few comments I heard simply state the obvious for the rest of us: Whenever two people meet for the first time, there is tension. People need to know where they stand, whether dominant or submissive.
This tension never goes away in human relationships. It may not cause any problems, but it's always there.
It doesn't matter how civil we are to each other, our animal brains still have a bit of 'lion pride' in them.
I suppose we just have to learn to ignore it.

what is your favorite, candy or candy bar?.
now, for me, i prefer snicker's and reese's butter cups, but that is just me.
i am humble enough to accept other answers to this pregnant question.
I like Grandma's cookies!
What, that doesn't count?
Alright, then... an actual candy bar I like is Payday. mmmhmmmmm
btw, Yes Prisca, jelly bellies are here in the US. That's actually the most famous company that makes 'jelly beans'. I suppose they have monopolized the market. (kinda like 'kleenex' or better yet 'q-tip', both of which are brand names. he he he)

Gravedancer,
The paradox lies here: What is a rational person?
We assume that such a person exists. IMO, a rational person is someone who is less irrational than most.
Humans aren't made for making decisions and so forth. We can do it of course. We are capable of that and so much more.
But it's quite clear that our social development hijacks our naturally irrational behavior.
So quite often our irrational behavior wants to hijack back.
Am I making sense?
In essence, we are animals.
Or better said, we are computers with a huge amount of computing power but no built in master program. We have to upgrade the software we use on a continual basis or the hardware is good for nothing.
Hungry, to comment about decisions, I think that an ideal decision is one in which you cannot predict the outcome. Here, you cannot be wrong or right. You have all the information you can possibly gather to help you but there is still no clear verdict. This shouldn't be stressful to the well informed person; they know that any consequences could not have been forseen. (Or that one decision cannot be forseen as having more negative consequences) Therefore the outcome is not because of a wrong decision, but simply a product of uncertainty.
If you can predict the consequences before coming to a decision, then it's pretty simple: don't do what leads to the bad consequences.
But still, it's not for us to decide in hindsight what was a bad decision unless we know failed in our responsibility of collecting accurate data.
