7:Ahem:
by SixofNine inthis is what an ideological hatred of regulation looks like:
this seemingly innocuous power point slide from the securities and exchange commission (sec) was used in june of 2004 to explain to market participants a new ruling on how broker dealers could compute their "net capital".
instead of the previous fixed limits on leverage of 10:1, broker dealers like lehman brothers could use their own "internal models" to determine how much leverage they could put on their capital.

What are your plans post JWD?
by penny2 inwill you be joining another forum or leaving it all behind?.
i took to heart simon's thread about moving on past the "ex-jw" phase and i've been spending less time at the computer.
it's comforting though, to come back on here occasionally and see how my cyber friends are doing.. so i'm glad there are options - i've noticed some familiar faces on new forums - there may be access to jwd in some form..... .....and there's a whole world out there!.

No plans but to leave it all behind, I don't have the interest or inclination to continue discussions of the JWs or that business the watchtower. I guess that is why I am interested in the political comments section on JWD.

Tell them to stay away from the "Watering Hole" and the booze and it might help if you did the same. Nothing like an alcoholic to stir up trouble by not minding HIS own business.

The WTS has been saying the same old thing for as long as I can remember and that's about 42 years..................... "The only thing that will get us thought the Great Tribulation is our Faith in Jehovah. The Governing Body is trying to prepare us for what is about to take place. They said to take that extra night and build up your knowledge and strengthen your faith. The time will soon come when we might not have the publications to study and the only things we will be able to recall and draw comfort from are the things that we have studied. We cannot recall what we do not know! The preaching work will continue and Jehovah is speeding it up, but how can we teach and help build peoples faith if we ourselves are not spiritually strong?"

Yes, dawg, you need help and soon. Of course religion produces crazies, no doubt about it. However, Sarah Palin was praying to her God. Like Wednesday said she has a right to pray. That doesn't mean in real life she feels the same as a prayer she got carried away with for the moment.

dawg's pissing post:.....You're right Wednesday,it's funny as hell, I'm sitting here wondering how Republicans can continue to be so damn stupid and still get defended! God, this is the funnest thing I've read all day. Are you actually going to sit there and tell me you didn't hear that remark about Iraq? Better listen again." ...... dawg, You have serious ISSUES with religion in general, Run, don't walk to your nearest therapist and get help right away! You are on the cusp of a nervous breakdown.
