Snoozy, practice saying these lines. They can come in mighty handy sometimes.
1. Shut up.
2. Shut the hell up and get out of my house. Now.
3. Shut up that stupid, mindless, totally self-centered garbage you're spouting.
4. You seem to be having trouble keeping your mouth shut. I can help you with that. Shall I?
not priests!.
i posted earlier today about colored shirts.
that was the way a "man" dressed west of the appalachians.
It would have been interesting to have Uncle Nate come to a Texas honkytonk on a Saturday night and announce that only homosexuals wear Levis.
it seems like it was only yesterday, yet i know it was much further back in time.
i was but a child then and only about four or five.

it had things such as mentioning royal blue and that they had been warned that it was a satanistic colour
Oh, yes, absolutely. Why, just look at the sky... it's blue, and on any cloudy day you can see Satan's face up there, looking menacingly down at us from the clouds. It's obvious that blue is satanic.
did you know cassius clay (better known as muhammed ali) was named after a white reformist and abolitionist?.

Okay...

that Muhammed Ali and his father were named after
I think it's more likely that the father was named after the white reformist, and Ali was named after the father.
i was just sitting here going over my finances and, if murphy's law doesn't come into play.. when i first started this cleaning service, i thought i would never get it built up, and a few times thought i would end up losing my home.
my mom, has on a few occasions, asked me to move to mn to live with her, because she knew my situation.
however, i was determined that i was going to make it on my own.
Congratulations, Shari! You are a successful businesswoman.
I believe you're on the right track with wanting to hire people to do the cleaning. As long as you're the one doing it, you can't expand beyond what you personally have time to do. The bigger income is going to come with expanding your resources. One tip, born of experience: get bonded, and keep in regular contact with your customers to make sure they're happy. And screen your help closely. We had an employee... a JW sister, mind you... who not only helped herself to stuff in the offices that she thought they should throw away, but started calling our customers and dealing with them as though she was the one in charge.
You're going to do just fine, hon. You've got spirit, and smarts.
" i wanted to cry but i was too numb inside.
several days went by, i had my judicial hearing (i think that was sunday), they told me that i was going to be disfellowshipped.
i accepted that i deserved that.
Out of all the people you will know in a lifetime, you are the only one you will never leave nor lose. To the question of your life, you are the only answer. To the problems of your life, you are the only solution.
Jo Coudert said it. I know it. You should, too.
one of the things that i think i was supposed to believe all my years in the organization was that the earth is the only inhabited planet.
am i right in this or am i having a flashback???
is there other life in the universe?
The response I remember about the question of life in other parts of the universe, was that the bible deals with mankind's existence on earth and is silent about anything else. So any knowledge we could get about it would have to be after the thousand year reign. At that time, it's quite possible that God would have us to spread out from Earth into the universe to fill and subdue it like he once had us spread out from Eden into the world.
Made sense to me at the time. I also figured, if there's life on other planets, then they probably got put to the same test as Adam and Eve did. Maybe they passed, and therefore they know about the problem on this planet and are staying away from it until the issue is settled. That also made sense to me.
Now, it's like the question of what happens when you die. I'll never know for sure while I'm alive.
could apply to one's relationship with a controlling, abusive organization, too... reckon?.
