  so far, so good.
  haven't been to a meeting in nearly 4 months.
  moved and changed phone numbers to an unlisted one.
  
  my only concern is that my sister (who is a wit and lives in another part of the country),
  said she was worried about me and has been contemplating calling to elders
  in my area...

  Intensely lonely

  normally i am fine but a glass and a half of wine and my heart is breaking.

  the irony of it is is that i was as lonely as this in the congregation.. i feel overwhelmed with life and never seem to get anywhere or get anything done.

  god, i sound pitiful.

  VERMONT!!! i've been to vt often. i love it. i never wanted to live in the states, but vermont is dear to me. sure, if you had a bed a breakfast, i'd be there in a flash... but all you need to do is send me an invite, and that's all i need. there was this old "resort" we use to go to, i think it was in a place called Barney (?), it was awesome. right accross from a lake with 8 cabins. oh, it was suh-wah-heet. anyway, i can relate to feeling lonely, especially when surrounded by such the irony of beauty... cal.

  okay, this is a strange request, but i'm desperate... i have bit my lip too many times.

  i bit it for the first time on sunday and have bitten it about 10 times since!

  no matter how careful i am, i keep biting it!

  college girl...
  well, for the biting of the cheeks, i do that during the day. otherwise, i have to wear a mouthguard at night. and let me simply say this... not pretty.
  
  otherwise, the biting of the lip? i've been told it is endearing! :)

  i bite deliberately.

  i bite my lip when i'm upset. it's distracts me.

  i also bite the insides of my cheeks, cause otherwise i clench my teeth and my jaw pops out.

  i think i suffer from some kinda neurosis!??!?!

  Do they themselves believe?

  by Kristofer in

  sometimes i wonder, with the number of letters that the wt receives refuting doctrine & practices, does the gb really buy what they put out?

  or are they just pushing literature and living off the collections from congregations.

  i would think that if i received overwhelming evidence of the faultiness of my religion, i'd be forced by my own conscience to change or speak up or make a difference.

  i'll just go deal with my munchies and avoid the subject altogether.

  warning, this point may be offensive to some.

  i immediately thought of the old "you'll go blind" warning parents gave to masturbating teens...

  you did it anyway right? but wasn't there still that fear you might actually go blind?

  Film Scenes that got burnt onto your memory

  what were some film scenes that pleased or horrified you so much that they stayed vivid in your memory for a long time?

  the one i always recall is the scene where anthony hopkins (playing as hannibal lector) lobotomised ray liotta (paul krendler) cutting off pieces of his brain and giving them to him to eat.

  he also took some of liotta's cooked brain in a plane and gave them to an unsuspecting passenger boy sitting next to him to eat.
