  Thinking about taking a break

  by Elsewhere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm thinking about taking a break from this place for awhile.. one of the reasons i came here was because of the way jws have been so mean to me.

  i don't like to see people be mean to each other.. lately i have been seeing people i care about being very mean to each other and me.

  i just can't handle that.. please don't be mean.

  Hamburger - fluff time

  by larc in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been very busy translating the dead sea scrolls and finding out how to explain to everyone what is the meaning of life, so i feel a need to take a break from my ponderous works to ask all of you a pregnant question, to wit, what is your favorite dish that is mainly comprised of hamburger, or contains hamburger as a major ingredient?

  i do request that you only provide one, and only one selection.

  (those who disobey this rule will be disfellowshipped and will not get a christmas present from me this year, even if i promised you one.

  Cheeseburger is paradise
  Medium rare with mustard 'be nice
  Heaven on earth with an onion slice
  I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise
  I like mine with lettuce and tomato
  Heinz 57 , French fried potatoes
  Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer
  Well good God Almighty which way do I steer
  Cheeseburger in paradise
  Heaven on earth with an onion slice
  Worth every damn bit of sacrifice
  To get a cheeseburger in paradise
  I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise
  To be a cheeseburger in paradise

  (from Cheeseburger In Paradise by Jimmy Buffet)

  Farkel,I like The Quiet Man,too.I don't think I've ever seen The Searchers,I'll have to find that one.My dad loved the Duke,too.I can't watch a John Wayne movie without thinking of him.

  I couldn't begin to choose a favorite...

  (((((Prisca))))) I missed the fight again,just looking through the aftermath.

  Like Danny said,she was here before the rest of us,minding her own business.Prisca was one of the very first people on this site to offer me any sort of friendship or support.Since then I've watched her goaded beyond belief,by several posters here and gone.Seems it's alright for them to speak their mind,but not alright for her???Yeah,maybe she sometimes shoots first and asks questions later-at this point,I can't blame her.I'd do the same thing.

  Prisca's always been a friend,and I'm sorry I haven't spoke my mind on this before now.Whether or not anyone cares what I think,I think it's time I said it.She doesn't deserve all this crap,and it's time it stopped.

  he is not expected to live much longer.

  Sorry to hear this Doug,you have my deepest sympathies.I've lost my dad,and now my mom is just barely hanging on,so I understand alot of how you feel.

  Though my siblings and I have been inactive for a long time,and my parents remained in the organization,they never thought about shunning us.They wouldn't shun my cousins who were disfellowshipped either.Our aunts and uncles and cousins that are "in" don't shun us either (even though they absolutely shun some of their own children and siblings).I know it's because we're not df'ed,but it really shows how dumb their rules are.

  Anyway,we chose to have a JW elder give the "talk" at my dads funeral (it was held in a funeral home) out of respect for the fact that it was his belief.We'll do the same for my mom.The elder who did my dads service (and hopefully my moms) is a genuinely good guy,and he talked more about my dad,and less about resurection than any other JW funeral I've ever been to.It's still painful,though,to listen to that rhetoric.

  I can respect your decision though,Doug.Under the circumstances,I might do the same thing.You know in your heart how you feel about your dad,and he knew it.too.That's what counts...

  Again,my deepest sympathies.

  OK,alright already....

  I like to read,mostly mysteries and westerns.

  I like music....country,but not mainstream-the Austin stuff,or classic rock,especially southern rock.

  I like to cook....cookbooks and/or gadgets would work.

  Or.....you could just surprise me.

  i have never posted to the maximum daily post limit (25) since i have been on this board.

  i am working on a 3d illustration and my other computer is slowly grinding it out which makes it inaccessible to me until it's done.

  it has been rendering for 3 hours now and has about another 4 hours before it is finished.
