Could Assemblies Be Wrecked?
by metatron inassemblies at the reading pa. assembly hall are getting disrupted repeatedly by somebody who keeps pulling fire alarms.
many witlesses blame it on "apostates" - rather than the dissolute teenagers who used to do such things in my day.. there are lots of things that so-called 'apostates' may do to disrupt assemblies including bomb threats phoned in, swat teams called, printed green insults stuffed into collection boxes etc.
add prohibitions against strollers and you have lots of reasons not to attend and thereby avoid the annoyances.

I'll never forget the streakers at a District Convetion in the mid-70s. It was definitely a highlight and the only thing I can remember.

ammo: "its a beautiful race to watch!"
You know on years like this, half the reason I watch is because I get a bird's eye view of Europe. I want to go back so bad, but finances say it will be at least another 5 years.
GL Tirebiter: "Many riders will arrive in London tired and hurt after this tour!"
Agreed. It does kind of dilute the intensity of competition when so many events are so close together. At least year over year everyone knows when the major events are, but the Olympics throws an extra spanner in the works. (Pardon my attempt at being British.)

Congrats to Bradley Wiggins and to all the Brits on the board!
I'm rooting for three riders this year. 2 have a very realistic chance. 1 not so much.
#1: Levi Leiphimer!! He's from the San Francisco Bay Area so how can I not root for him? (He's a dark horse though, so I'm not holding my breath.)
#2: Bradley Wiggins!! If I'm reading my Wikipedia page correctly, the Brits have NEVER won a Tour. Go Bradley!
#3: Cadel Evans!! He won last year. He has the heart of a lion (even though he's not a Brit). I think he'll probably take it, but you never know in an event like this.

Thanks to chemical emotions for sharing her painful experiences.
I wish I knew 20 years ago what I know now. My daughter received not more than 3 "spankings" from me when she was about 3 1/2 to 4 years old. I'm pretty sure the issue each time was her blatantly rejecting parental authority. As a true-believing JW this needs to be corrected or her eternal life could be in jeopardy. The spankings were 2 or 3 bare handed swats to the bottom hard enough to sting a little but not enough to leave a (physical) mark. Never done in anger and always after a boring, long-winded explanation. Almost clinical in the way it was done. After the 3rd(?) spanking my heart told me that this was overkill. I felt horrible. I promised my daughter that no matter what happened in the future, I would NEVER spank her again. I'll have to ask her how her memory of this compares to mine.
My son, OTOH, had an iron butt. He probably got about 12 spankings from me. I can also remember his last one. After the boring speech and the stinging swats he just looked up at me unfazed. Right there I knew this a pointless and wrong-headed exercise. From then on he only got time-outs, natural consequences or loss of privileges.
So now I think I'm ready to be a half-way decent parent. Problem is, I'M ALL DONE. (Well, almost.)
