Has he mentioned what he's going to do with the filled garbage bags?
He might have decided to store them in garage, etc.
hey all,
hubby is right this minute bagging up all the wt and awake bound volumes that have been languishing in the back room and putting them in garbage bags.
this is the same hubby who swears he is "going back" to the kh "some day".

What a tragic life.
we can take it!
c'mon tell us why we're so stupid, it can't be that difficult we elected tony blair for god's sake!.

To save water the Brits use a two stage flush on their loos. Choice of a light flush for fluids and a more thorough flush when needed. That's smart.
In the US they limit all toilets to 1.5 gallons per flush, more than necessary for a wee but not enough for solids so you have to flush twice. That's stoopid.

In the late 80's I came very close to taking a job in the UK. Went to London, had a great interview (In the Lloyds bldg. as I recall) When I came out of the Bldg. I was deep in thought when I pulled the classic Yank blunder and looked the wrong way when I stepped off the curb. A black London cab stopped just in time (I actually put my hand on the grill!) The driver was pissed, he leaned out the window as I finished crossing and shouted "You bloody well won't do that twice!". I really enjoyed our visits there and my wife and I loved the Brit. people we met and dealt with.
P.S. After jumping through all the hoops the employer withdrew the offer because of the government requirement that they show they could not find a Brit. citizen to fill the position. Wonder why the US has never bothered to protect their good jobs the same way.
in the wake of richard dawkins bestseller 'the god delusion' (which i and many others here have read) there has been a good deal of rebuttal from the 'faith' community.
now a new book is out published by alister mcgrath, professor of theology at oxford university.
it is entitled 'the dawkins delusion'.. has anyone read it or ordered it yet?
God is the ultimate "the checks in the mail" concept. Go ahead and write your own checks against the anticipated deposit, after all, you can't cash a "God" check until after your dead! What a perfect scheme! Makes you feel good now and you'll never be disappointed.
Sheep, indeed.
so, am i the only person (or at least, the only male) in the usa who won't be glued to my tv in an hour?
As the game progresses I check to see if the score is getting lopsided. If it's close I will watch the last half or quarter. Too many games over the years were over before the first half. borrring!
i was just remembering some of the great sleep i used to get at the meetings.
towards the end i would sleep while reading for the bookstudy and the watchtower lesson.
who can top that?
Sunday afternoon about 3:30 pm, summertime...windows open...sitting on a metal folding chair in my woolen meeting slacks with a necktie and jacket...I can't sit still because it feels like I am setting in an ant colony and every time I move my butt slides forward and I have to scoot back up straight...I keep looking at my Timex wristwatch...it seems to have stopped...I look down at the floor beneath the seat in front of me...it looks like a very comfortable place to stretch out but I know I can't do that...I am looking at the year text above the speakers head when my eyes cross and the next thing I know I am jerking my head up from a dive toward the floor...and the Watchtower study is next.
do you think there are any?.
how would you "know" them if they were predators?.
if you were suspicious, what would you do to protect yourself?.
I have had to be very cautious. There have been several attempts by attractive young females who frequent this site to lure me into some kind of kinky rendezvous. I don't know if it is because of my deliciously thirst quenching avatar or my suave, mature age. I feel like a piece of raw meat in a lions cage.
thats how i feel,..... no disrespect for those who find another way or place to worship.
i for one cannot stand any religion on any level.
how do you feel?.
Gee, why would I be completely cynical and burnt out about a supreme being and organized religion in general ? But, you know what? I am positive that my present outlook is the real "truth". Some of you feel sorry for me, and I feel sorry for you.
garybuss said not one single thing they told him about in his younger years (since the 50's) came true.
it made me think....does anyone know of anything they said that was/is right?????
?
Yes, lots of things. But, like Undecided said above, it was all invisible stuff. They wouldn't make it up would they?
