  Pre 1975 my whole family always went out in service on Thanksgiving. I remember going out in the early 70's doing the Kingdom News tract work on Thanksgiving. We were out most of the day and it was spitting snow to boot. Oh the memories that come flooding back.........................

  Officer Wilson not indicted in killing of Michael Brown

  by Simon in

  1. social
  2. current

  after a thorough investigation and weighing of the evidence the grand jury has decided not to indict the officer.. the reaction so far seems as predicted - people refuse to accept that the result represents justice despite claims that is what they wanted.. there is now violence and vandalism, including gunshots.

  let's hope the police contain the troublemakers.. .

  "Mentioning people's success in situations where you have to be 1/1,000,000s in athletic talent or lucked out to be one of the three black actors that can get leading uni-race roles as an example of opportunities for all is a giant fallacy, as you must know." - Pacopoolio

  Which of the THREE black actors are you talking about? :

  1. Morgan Freeman
  2. Sidney Poitier
  3. Samuel L. Jackson
  4. Laurence Fishburne
  5. James Earl Jones
  6. Charles S. Dutton
  7. Denzel Washington
  8. Harry Belafonte
  9. Wesley Snipes
  10. Danny Glover
  11. Carl Weathers
  12. Cuba Gooding Jr.
  13. Mario Van Peebles
  14. Will Smith
  15. Ving Rhames
  16. Chris Rock
  17. Larenz Tate
  18. Louis Gossett Jr.
  19. Taye Diggs
  20. Kennan Ivory Wayans
  21. Eddie Murphy
  22. Billy Dee Williams
  23. David Alan Grier
  24. Blair Underwood
  25. Ernie Hudson
  26. Marlon Wayans
  27. Chris Tucker
  28. David Chapelle

  And the list of HARD WORKING and accomplished black actors could go on and on and on.......

  Any person of any color, race, religion,creed or sexual preference can make something of themselves in this life in this country. Not everyone will be a success but everyone has a chance to try and be a success.

  Wal-Mart Workers Plan Huge Protest on Black Friday

  by talesin in

  2. current

  wal-mart, which pays a top wage of $12.00+ to its full-time employees, is under attack, once again, by its employees and those who would like to unionize them.. i can't speak to the usa, but here in canada, most wal-mart employees are not full time.

  it is mostly a part-time employer, so zero benefits.

  in my opinion, that makes the $12.00+ look a lot smaller when you envision the actual paycheque.

  i realise that starting this thread may make me as popular as a ginger stepchild but was there any wts publication that you liked, or at least comfortably tolerated?.

  my memory may be deceiving me but i think the greatest man book was pretty good, leaving out the gruesome detail of the crucifixtion and wts doctrine.. also, can anyone tell me the list of books that ray franz authored/co-authored?.

  thanks.

  No praise for the Pope here or for the Roman Catholic Church. All I was pointing out was that this man (because of public pressure and outcry from his parishoners) is willing to face the enormity of the crisis in the church that he is the head of and that he is not afraid to use Ceasar to bring criminals to justice.

  If the Governing Body really believed the scripture in Romans 13:1-4 then I think that they would be more than willing to enlist the aid of the 'superior authorities' in bringing pedophiles to justice.

  have you had the pleasure of hearing this doozy??

  i believe it was presented at the circuit level first, it has filtered it's way down.. the poor eldub opens with this definition of the word fantasize:.

  "to conceive fanciful or extravagant notions, ideas, suppositions, ect.

  Babies live in a world of statistical truth. They MUST have their every need met by caretakers so that they can reach adult maturity.

  Adult Jehovahs Witnesses live in a world of wishful fantasy. They WANT their every need met by a caretaker God so that they can be infantilized.
