this is just a bit of fun really, but do you know how many handshakes you are away from your favourite personality?.

this is how it works.

i have shaken hands with my brother in laws father in law, who just happens to own glenfiddich whisky and gordons gin.

Did Abraham Lincoln have a chance to shake Andrew Johnson's hand before he was shot in Ford's Theatre by John Wilkes Booth? Probbably, he was his vice president. But what about William Mckinley and Teddy Roosevelt? Or JFK to Lyndon Johnson? Wait, both Lincoln and Kennedy had vice presidents named Johnson? Coincidence?!

Why the fixation on the Nazis?

by eyeslice in

is it just me but do the society have a fixation on the nazis and the relatively few witness martyrs?.

i was skimming through the jan 15th 2003 watchtower, and came across a couple of photos of brothers who were in concentration camps that i must have seen a 100 times before.

then, on the back there something about ones who died at the hands of the nazis in hungary.. now dont get me wrong, i know that what happen at the hands on the nazis was truly awful, and that many of those who died were people whose faith at least i can admire.

i am like an emotional screw up.

i am like a 17 year old with no ability to take harsh words in.

I have to just echo a lot of whats been already said, but I wanted to support you in this Viv. Its true, we try to make everyone happy, but sometimes due to circumstances its impossible. I know you to have one of the sweetest personalities and I know you to be very considerate as well. Your father I'm sure has his reasons for reacting the way he has, but you can only do so much, and you have to be there for your friend as well. You will have plenty of opportunities to more with your Father's side of the family and it is not as if you are not going to your Grandma's at all.

Your father might not lighen up, but you have to know inside that you are a good person and that you are doing the right thing.

Do You Ever Think "The End" Will Happen?

by minimus in

jw
friends

or is it all jw bull?

RandomTask

Is everyone really a monster? Is humanity so bad at this point that destruction is inevitable? Are you really scared to go outside your front door everyday? If you are then I pity you. I meet more good and pleasant people everyday who are merely trying to make their way in this world just like I am. Sure, we all have problems, but I don't happen to know a lot of people who are consumed by their own selfishness leading to their ultimate destuction! Get a grip.
