could ian anderson (flautist, guitarist, lead singer of jethro tull) really be my father?
i just today noticed the resemblance.
pic of me was taken yesterday, pic of ian is from the liner notes to his latest solo effort, rupi's dance.. .
oh well, i just thought there was something there.... of course i normally have a full head of hair, i shaved it all off and now i'm letting just one half grow out.... yeah i'm weird... whereas ian's hair has mostly fallen out, which he jokes about in concerts. he sure doesnt have this look anymore:
http://www.collecting-tull.com/Articles/article_DME_june_69.htm link to article from 1969 "Why it's wrong to judge Jethro Tull by looks" yes, i am a tull fanatic
i remember when i was around the age of 10 or 11, there was a book that jehovah's witness parents used in family bible study that had two versions (one for male, one for females) or maybe there was one and it just had chapters and i am remembering wrong.
i do remember vividly having to endure the rather male dominated view of what happens when a young woman enters adolescence and what a young woman has to look forward to in her 'duties' as a loyal wife and mother serving her husband *gags*.
does anyone remember that?
What year was the JW book "Your Youth..." published? I'm thinking 1977....

From what I can (hazily) remember, there are 2 schools of thought on this topic.
One, that St. Paul was obviously a male chauvenist.
Two, that Paul was quoting rules and regulations that were being practiced by Judaizers in the congregations ("I" statements, and "not I but the Lord" etc etc being sort of like how we quote or copy and paste what someone previously said in a post and then respond to it) and then refuted them. To my knowledge, Joseph Malik and aChristian hold these beliefs and are better qualified than I to go into detail. Especially since I didn't sleep last night and now am seeing double.
it is clear now even with the details released so far that not only did the police murder an innocent civilian in cold blood for no reason but they also deliberately and cynically lied in an attempt to cover up the incident, possibly hoping they could get away with what they had done.. they now admit to firing 11 shots or more, not the 3 (?
) originally claimed.
all other details they originally put out also seem to be completely at odds with the truth - he was not wearing a heavy coat but a denim jacket, he did not jump the barrier, he did not run but saunterd and picked up a paper, he was not challenged by police.
I don't mean to hijack the thread, but (I say that a lot these days) I have a sort-of funny story.
I installed a gas fireplace for Buffalo's Police Commisioner, Rocco Diina (what a great wop-cop's name). Well I had to go service it once, and I was there rather late. Rocco (yeah, I'm on a first-name basis with him, and got a "get out of jail free card" from him) asked me if he could turn the TV on, because the national news (forget which network) was having a piece on the crime rate going down, and they focused on Buffalo. Naturally, Rocco was interviewed. Well, they really goofed his name up on the ID at the bottom of the screen; they had it as "Rocko Dina." When the piece finished, I asked Rocco, "So what did you think? Was the piece pretty accurate?" He said yeah, they did a good job. I said, Too bad they didn't do such a good name spelling your name. He hadn't noticed the mistake, got red-hot and yelled: "WHAT?!? I told those motherfuckers if they screwed my name up I'd come back to New York personally and SHOOT 'EM!"

All I can say is, I'm glad not to be a cop, 'specially an urban one. It's a tough job. And, they have rules about how you look, and right now, since I have no secular, social or communal responsibilies, I have chosen to look rather foolish.
i know from going door to door that people are generally divided as to who god is.
what are your thoughts?
is jesus almighty god?
So LT, how many angels do you think would fit on the head of a pin?
Cygnus, of the 'I don't need no stinkin' sleep class'

LT, the best explanation I've read to answer your question is Stafford's, where he points to some passage in Chronicles somewhere that says the Israelites worshipped their king, along with worshipping Jehovah. ("proskuneo" in the Septuagint) So humans, with Jehovah's approval, can receive such "worship" if rightly devoted.
i karate kicked a friend's car window, then i met up with the guy that introduced me to independent thought and out of the org at a rock concert.
anyways, i'm drunk.
Now why can't I get away with ultraviolence like that?
i recently signed up on a couple of internet dating sites.
i've been talking with one guy for about a week now and he's asked to meet for coffee.
i'm a little nervous and wanted to hear how many others have tried this.
Never tried an internet dating service, but I met caty in Yahoo chat and knew her for probably 8 months or so as casual online friends and one day realized I wanted it to be something more. Took over 5 more months but I finally went to visit her and the rest of the love story continues....
Her JW sister and JW brother-in-law met on jwmatch.com and got married a little over a year ago. So there's one good success story, although such conduct is not likely sanctioned by the FDS. lol
