went to montana, had a really good time.
flew there, drove back with a friend.
was gone eight days.
Welcome home, Hortensia!
We did miss you!
Thanks for sharing the sights -- been to a few of those spots myself, but in younger, healthier times. We can muse happily over our memories, yours more recently made than mine. It becomes a bittersweet sort of reflection as time goes by . . .
Moving furniture is, strangely, good for both body and soul.
Best.

a few years ago avatar was 'demonized' by the wt.
in reality their argument had an extreme ignorance of hinduism and a poor knowledge of modern langauge (avatar means something else nowadays.... ).
but anyway when i was growing up my parents recorded the 4 supermen movies on to video tape as they were played on tv.
Guy Pierce dissed BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN at our circuit assembly because of its theme, and a WT publication condemned E.T. because the little boy called his older brother "penis breath."
.. the new wbt$ donation arrangement/ jw kingdom hall bank account theft... is a very hot topic right now... the wbt$ is literally going to clean out kingdom hall bank accounts,filled with donations from jws... that theft is going to happen world wide..the wbt$ is going to steal from 7 million plus jw`s... .. we have jw elders here on jwn,that know whats going on... they "serve" in kingdom halls,they are "supposed" to be looking after the welfare of the average jw... they know there is a 4 page letter,only one page will be read to the congregation..the rest will be kept secret... they know the wbt$ is about to steal jw donations..on a world wide scale!!!...
.. i would like to know what you active jw elders are going to do about this??!!...
are you going to let "your" congregation know about the other 3 secret pages?...
Greetings, OUTLAW!

There were only a few comments on this old, long-forgotten thread of mine, but quite a number of reads. It makes me wonder if many other individuals, like me, have typed in Ms. Tan's famous line.
Just curious.
Thanks.

i went to a legit-looking site on a famous artist and -- wham!
Thank you, falseprophet!
I'll see to that asap!
Peace.

Good morning, Teary, will-be-apostate and tornaport:
What a wealth of information -- thank you very much. I've learned a great deal from everyone's posts and will act with greater caution as a result.
Blessings, peace and safety as you surf!

Thanks, glenster, tirebiter, caa, villagegirl and Apognophos!
Your comments and direction help a lot.
Villagegirl: I don't know how to answer all your questions. Yes, iMacs appear free from what plagues pcs. The old desktop I'm on now has safeguards that appear regularly to alert me. The 10-year-old iMac laptop given me (the object of this thread) had not been cleaned up of the former owner's stuff; as a result, it was difficult to operate in an optimum manner because, on delivery, I was given no passwords. All procedures were blocked as a result. No updates and regular check-ups made it vulnerable, I'm surmising.
Thanks for all your input!
