Demons

by disneycuty in

i have a question: as you all know jehovah's witnesses view crystal ball, physics, as demonized or anything that is not suppose to be in the house like tarot cards.

and jehovah's witness believe that the demons would bother them if they do these activities or have them in the house.

do you still believe that or do you think it is the society's way of mind control over their members?

I've been thinking about using a ouija board to help me with my investments from now on. It couldn't freaking hurt!

Why not flip a coin? Works better, costs nothing.

Going up against myself would be quite a challenge.

living in dallas, i've found that personals ads usually list an abundance of folks within reasonable traveling distance... i can turn up about 220 who have posted a picture, don't smoke, and live within 25 miles of me.

it's a great resource for a single guy who enjoys female company.

i've read many hundreds of personal ads.

Living in Dallas, I've found that personals ads usually list an abundance of folks within reasonable traveling distance... I can turn up about 220 who have posted a picture, don't smoke, and live within 25 miles of me. It's a great resource for a single guy who enjoys female company.

I've read many hundreds of personal ads. A while back I started compiling a list of things that immediately flip the "No Way" switch. Of course, some are just my own tastes. For example, "Christian woman looking for strong Christian man" would garner instant rejection, but in her case my rejection is exactly what she wants; that's why she posted that. And then there are things like "Cowgirl looking for her cowboy"... that means she goes C&W dancing three or four days out of the week... not my style, but fine if that's what she wants; it's just narrowing down the list.

The remarks I've clipped are more generic than that, and make you wonder what on earth they were thinking when they wrote them. Here we go:

Well, here goes.

Any woman who would start a personal ad with "Well, here goes" is just a little too out of touch with... I don't know, herself? reality? common sense? ...for me.

For everyone's curiousity,,,, I decided to add my profile and it goes something like this:

This is a wordier, even more vacuous version of "Well, here goes" above.

I love to go to the horse races and Las Vegas.

Men, line up please. Have checkbook or credit card in hand...

What I'm looking for may not be out there.

And what we're looking for may not be in you. You don't know til you try, so why are you saying this in your ad? What reaction did you think it would evoke in the readers? You won't be building much of a relationship on a foundation of anticipated inadequacy; nor will your potential suitor be excited at the prospect of climbing your Mt. Everest of expectations.

I would describe myself as very attractive

Just post the picture. I'll decide whether or not you're attractive. Lose the egotism, please.

I insist that you make at least $1 more than me & agree to antinuptuial to protect each other's assets.

Uh... before our first date? Right. Moving right along...

Look I am a cute girl, I don't really hurt for a date. All the guys I have been dating seem strange and can't keep up with me.

Gee, wonder why that is? No, actually, I don't wonder. Keeping right on moving along...

Well, thought I would give this another try, but I don't know why.

I don't either, hon. Give up. You're hopeless.

give me my independance & I'll give you yours; practice monogomy or don't call

All right, which is it... independence, or monogamy? Tell you what... come back and post another ad after you make up your mind.

(Post a picture of cat, dog or horse)

I won't be dating your pet. I really, really, really don't give a damn about it at this point. That's a difficult concept for you, isn't it.

Special Quote of the Day:

I'm a layed back kind of girl

As opposed to the kind of girl who is "layed" forward, sideways, upside down, backward, leaning over the couch arm...?

Thanks, Neon. I don't even recognize the name of the Donovan tune. The Pretender... well, I know the song when I hear it, but I never was much of a Jackson Browne fan, so I didn't pay much attention to his lyrics. Seals and Crofts, I remember the song, but again did not pay much attention to the words. Both Brown and S&C had a tendency to write songs that lacked that special hook to make the lyrics stick in your brain. Strange, how something as meaningful as "Love, like the autumn sun, should be dying, but it's only just begun" would not find a permanent niche, but "yellow mallow custard dripping from a dead dog's eye" does. Hmm.

Are WT and Awake! Becoming secret magizines

by Joseph_Muth in

about 4 years ago it became imposible for the non jw to subscripe to the magizines, without contact with a publisher.

you now have to have them brought to you.. it seems that the orangization is becoming more and more paranoid.

people are now being disfellowship for reading certain books.

Well, I was in my last location (suburb of Dallas) for a year and never had a visit. Not even a back issue or invitation stuck in the door. Now I've been here for two months (different suburb of Dallas), and never a visit. Guess I won't be getting that life-saving information in time, since the end is so close...

Dang, huh.
