No, because Im 53 and your 36. I do have ice ice baby in my collection though. Its a cool rap song. What caught my interest in that song was his copping David Bowies under pressure. There are very few people I would go see in concert. I did go to see Jeff Beck last night though.

Did anyone really buy into the "Universal Sovereignty" issue?
by loli ini am new to the forum, but not new to jw indoctrination.
even as a child, i would ask myself, "why would the almighty creator need to prove anything to anyone, including him/her/itself?
really, one of the few scriptures that i do actually agree with is that 'god is love.

I think the point back in the 70's was so everyone could get back to the routine of spreading the good news as soon as possible.

For the past 5 weeks I have worked 40 hours a week. But I am liable to work an extra 8 any given week. On Sundays if a certain number of people do not show up then I have to work up to a 16 hour day. I would prefer to only work 40. I work midnights so if I have to hold I have to stay up all night from 10:30 at night to 2:30 in the afternoon thats a killer.

Questions about Dating a Former Jehovah's Witness
by The wanderer inweighing the decisions
having spent a number of years in the organization and the opportunity to.
marry in the "truth" there was this reluctance to do so.

Recently, I have been having second thoughts regarding dating a former
Jehovah's Witness. Perhaps, they are not what they once were? Would
it be a good idea to become involved with one or would it be a terrible
mistake? Would there be the chance of receiving "damaged goods"?Wanderer. Your almost 40 years old. Most likely any relationship you enter at this point will involve a chance of receiving damaged goods. Unless you marry your 7th grade sweetheart thats the deal everyone gets. With a former Jw you might have a better idea of what your getting into then with someone else.

Why can't the headline be "Paris Hilton dies in tragic diving accident!"
by free2beme ini am so sick of this woman, and her fame for simply being born into a rich family.
i am just waiting for the day that we get to see her name in the obituary and not on the front of some magazine to say what a great thing she has done, when she found a lost dog.
i actually like the movie, "house of wax", as it does allow you to see some damage done to this woman.

She didn't ask for iit, she was BORN into it. She may not have asked for the money. Im sure she ask for the publicity. I bet she has a team to get her publicity. It doesnt just happen.
So since she has generated this buzz about herself what is wrong with people questioning her abilities?

I dont know if you just started using computers but I wouldnt believe the first sentence. I see that all the time. Hit delete if you dont want it. Dont think your anonymous when you are on a computer. Though I doubt any Jw's would go through the trouble of tracing you or finding out who you are.
