  In the spirit of match-making, who do you have a crush on?

  by MsMcDucket in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  eh heh?

  i know this is either going to be one of those topics where people consider it a popularity contest or something....i'm just being an imp and seeing if anyone will be forward enough to tell about the person that they would like to date.. me, i'm married so that leaves me out!

  but i have seen a lot of beefcakes on here!

  Golden Age Goodies

  by Leolaia in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  recently i had the pleasure to examine a stash of 1920s and 1930s golden age magazines, among the rarest of watchtower publications.

  i thought it would be a fun idea to have a thread in which i share with you some of the amazing, ridiculous, hilarious things contained therein.

  hence, this is the first post of a series of excerpts, scans, etc.

  Name dropping the KKK is disgusting...and this happened in 1933? No wonder my grandparents are still somewhat racist.

  Italy knock out Gemany? I don't think so. Germany has the entire nation behind them and they are playing attractive soccer. I'm all for Italy, with my ancestry there, but I just don't see them advancing past Germany. Especially with all the scandals going on back home with Juventus.

  i've grown more mentally in the past 3 months than the past 8 years.

  the support here along with the freedom to think without restrictions is great!

  i'm starting to see how many different points of view are out there....and that it is ok to disagree on different points of view and still be civil...something not taught as a dub.. it's like opening my eyes to everything around me i never noticed before.

  one song that recently reminded me of my exit, and brought tears to these brown eyes of mine:
  
  
  U2 - Bad

  Bono has a way with his voice that just pierces into your soul. That song is a classic.

  "Marching Bands of Manhatten" - Death Cab for Cutie

  I wish we could open our eyes
  To see in all directions at the same time
  Oh what a beautiful view
  If you were never aware of what was around you
  
  "Never Know" - Jack Johnson Knock knock on the door to door
  tell ya that the metaphor is better than yours
  and you can either sink or swim
  things are looking pretty grim
  If you dont believe in what this one feeding
  Its got no feeling
  So I read it again
  and again and again
  Just seems the same
  so many different names
  our hearts are strong our heads are weak
  We'll always be competing never knowing "Never Know" - Jack Johnson We don't really need to find reason
  Cause out the same door that it came well its leaving its leaving
  Leaving like a day that’s done and part of a season
  Resolve is just a concept that's as dead as the leaves
  But at least we can sleep, its all that we need
  When we wake we will find
  Our minds will be free to go to sleep
  
  
  
  

  Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
  I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
  I held my tongue as she told me
  "Son fear is the heart of love"
  So I never went back

  This is only 2 albums!

  It's exciting and scary to wake up from my 28 year slumber.
