  Paralegals can work some very long hours.   Many are in the office before court opens, to support the attorneys who are in court.   Cases are sometimes heard at 6:00 on a Friday night (been there), and a few paralegals will stay behind in the office in case something is needed.  Many attorneys work on the weekend, and the paralegal has to be available too, especially when it's document work like the sale of a business.  A part-time paralegal would be a pain, as the attorney will have to wait "a few days' until she shows up?   I don't know of a law firm that seriously considers part-time for paralegals.     But, whatever, Tony you want to think. . . . .

  Tony comments about homosexuals, tight pants, and college prove his fear and smallmindedness.  His is akin to a pre-pubic twit like the character Frank Burns in M.A.S.H.   His narrow-mind astounds the common senses.  It illustrates that the typical, nuttyJehovah Witness mentally has been molded and is a reflection of the Governing Body at the top.  These are not big picture thinkers of a Christian philosophy of love, but rather narrow-minded idealists of rule-followers and makers.    I can come up with many adjectives other than turd.   But, turd is one of the nicer ones.

  Question related to the digestive tract of carnivores

  by geevee in

  i was raised as a jw from about the age of 2, my parents were baptized when i was 5 years old.. i always liked the thought in the song about a young boy leading all of these once viscous animals, that are now tame.... in some of the reading i have done, the digestive tracts of carnivores..meat eaters has a highly acidic stomach, with a short small intestine and a short large intestine [bowel].

  a lot of apes are frugivores [fruit eaters] less acid, long small intestine and longer bowel.

  the question: did god recreate these animals [carnivores] and change their digestive tracts after the noachian flood so that they could eat meat [other creatures] as the jw's believe that these animals only ate straw [herbivores] before the flood and that he will restore their original herbivore digestive tract after armageddon?.

  What about the wee little critters, like insects, spiders, bacteria, and viruses?   Are these little critters expected to flee from every blade of grass before the tiger eats his salad? And, whose to say that a plant isn't sacred?  Plants may not have fur or a brain, but they are living and move with the sun, grow, produce seeds, and have been shown to do complex math to avoid starvation.    Why should Jehovah God plants be eaten?

  Seriously, I love it when I take a picture of a natural wild beast with a kill to my JW relatives.  They just shudder from it.   Blows their idealism.

  We all know that there is absolutely no competition within the ranks of the JW Organization . . . . . 

  
  

  Get this new rant over to the media at Raw Story & others who broke Tony the TightPants a month or so ago!  I can't do it, but can someone else do it?

  Huh?   Rants about college, and then NO college, and then allows a college educated Brumley to interview him?  The man has lost his marbles, clearly.  Old aged?  I'm surprised WTS legal hasn't used the Vaudeville Hook to take him off his stage.  But, then again, birds of a feather flock together . . . .

  Should I even bother telling someone what I think of their parenting . . . .any advice?

  the situation: a neighbor's child and mine have played together for 8 years.

  her mother is a single parent, and a probable narcissist.

  loves designer clothes, bentleys, money, will not date a regular joe or even a rich man who doesn't drive the right car, wear the right clothes, etc.

  I don't think they let the child actually drink, they ordered 'virgin versions' of the adult drinks.   But, when the waiter brang the real drink, everyone chuckled alot.   And, when the waiter said, "Oh, I thought you were over 21", then everyone chuckled even more.  And, the girl kept talking about how cool it was that someone brought her a real drink, thinks she's older, etc.    You know how waiters work, all compliments and 'very good choice sir' type of brown-nosing.  

  Then adults did drive over 100 miles an hour through parts of South Florida back roads to get to the Keys, and they took the girl into Key West bars.  Last year, the mom said that they didn't need to wear seatbelt because they were in an expensive car.   (that's how stupid she is . . .so I reminded her of Lady Diana and that any object not strapped in in any car will go flying forward when it stops.)  

  Good point, the only fun the girl gets to have anymore is to "go out" with her mom and her friends.

  Just sad.  Yep, we are distancing ourselves.

  Well, my JW relatives called to tout Roku to me.   They didn't tout JW.org, but rather all the interesting Smithsonian TV that it carries.  They are really enjoying watching Smithsonian TV.   They made no mention of JW.org to me.  But, then again, I tell them flat out that it's not the "Truth", but rather, "The Lie" and I call it a "cult" straight to their face. And, they still call me!  

  I told them that I get a ton of science and history documentaries on Netflix and Amazon, that I enjoy.  Not buying Roku.

  Mental imbalance . . . the WTS says the wine & crackers partakers are cracker crazy!  Well, in the KH, I thought the partakers I knew were a few short of a full deck . . . . . I didn't need the WTS to put it in print.  But, thank you to the writing department for verifying my observance.   And, after seeing the GB speak of late, I assume that even the partakers at the top are also a few short of a full deck.
