Later, if I remember right, the cartoon version of Frosty has Santa giving him the magic hat.
That damned Christendom has to take over everything.

Salute! The Eagles and Glenn Frey are up there with my favorites.
My favorite one as related to my feelings about the Jehovah's Witnesses:
"Already Gone" The Eagles
Well, I heard some people talkin' just the other day
And they said you were gonna put me on a shelf
But let me tell you I got some news for you
And you'll soon find out it's true
And then you'll have to eat your lunch all by yourself
'Cause I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong
I will sing this vict'ry song, woo, hoo,hoo,woo,hoo,hoo
The letter that you wrote me made me stop and wonder why
But I guess you felt like you had to set things right
Just remember this, my girl, when you look up in the sky
You can see the stars and still not see the light (that's right)
And I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong
I will sing this vict'ry song, woo, hoo,hoo,woo, hoo,hoo
Well I know it wasn't you who held me down
Heaven knows it wasn't you who set me free
So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key
But me, I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong
I will sing this vict'ry song
'Cause I'm already gone
Yes, I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong
I will sing this vict'ry song
'Cause I'm already gone
Yes, I'm already gone
Already gone
All right, nighty-night -

OrphanCrow, Frosty has a magic hat. Mom and Dad must have missed that.

You have to resist baptism to have even a chance at a relationship with parents. Witness My Fury is right. With absolutely no excuses, just say no. -

Favourite Comedy Quotes
by LoveUniHateExams ini wanted to post a serious, profound quote in stillin's thread but my mind went blank and i'm pretty crap with serious quotes anyway, so i put a jokey quote from the red dwarf computer holly: .
it's better to have loved and lost than to have listened to an album by olivia newton-john.. when a bemused lister asks why, holly replies "because anything's better than listening to an album by olivia newton-john!".
this got me thinking, what are everyone's favourite comedy quotes?.

So this pair of Jehovahs Witnesses are at the front door telling me that the Bible tells them what's going to happen in the future, and that God is overseeing this door-to-door preaching. What a lie that is, because he didn't even duck or block when I punched him in the face. -

Please take to heart what prologos already said. If you can't wait it out until aduthood, then consider what berry gerry said.
Please stop fearing that your parents may shun you. Yes, they may. But you can do what is best for you then. If that happens, and even if not, you will need to develop new relations outside of that cult.

I don't know more than I read here, Esmeralda001. But BRAVO to you. Get the hell out of there. You don't need all that negative and drama.
Enjoy your life. It sounds like you are young and have so much better you can do with your time.

Continue page 2 replies:
Blondie, my wife may very well have come up with something like your song there. It's just that once it was identified to her by me, she acted so "normal" about that and ignored the Christmas tie-in.
I have said many times that Jingle Bells has no mentions of Christmas whatsoever.
FayeDunaway, I think so too. She has no clue what many doctrines are, just that JW's are in "the truth."
carla, thanks for the laugh. Yup, it's all good.
Dold Agency, in many ways she is living under a stone. Other JW's have asked the odd question that makes me wonder. A JW family, elder and pioneer, teen daughter and pre-teen son, were giggling once about this song they heard on the radio- Bob Dylan's "Everybody must get stoned." They all assumed it was about nobody measuring up and all being deserving of literal stoning. I said "You're kidding, right?" They were not kidding, so I had to explain what "getting stoned" meant.

Cognac, yup.....to be a fly on the wall. While she bought it, she won't ever wear it around them. I hope I am wrong.SafeAtHome, it wasn't red or green. She did google it and it probably did say it was in that song, but she focused right away on it having no literal meaning. DUH! They are just singing notes. Like the DO RE MI scale. That's how she felt.
Dagney, it wasn't that she thought I was wrong. She wanted the $4 deal and acted as if she thought I was narrowly focused on "ONE ASPECT" of what "fa la la" meant when I read it. I guess I could describe it as what a "worldly apostate" would see vs. what anyone else would see. Of course, she's wrong as anyone else would see it as part of "Deck the Halls."
JRK is referring to an inside joke between us. Technically, you can drive from Chicago to Detroit without going through Indiana, but you turn a 4 hour drive into a 16 to 24 hour drive to do it. And that's what she did- turned an obvious Christmas-themed shirt into a meaningless shirt by going all the way around the obvious meaning.
Stealth, that would be true.
scary21, I may use that. "Tell your JW friends that see your shirt that 'fa la la' was going through your brain when you bought it."
brandnew, here's the next lines for you to sing along (and count all the occurrences of "la"):
Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Troll the ancient Yule tide carol,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.Sparrowdown, that is the most profound thought. I missed the opportunity to say that at that moment.
"You whip out google on the smartphone to see if this is okay. I hope you do the same when you hear some new point at the assembly hall like 'overlapping generation.'" -

The Romans resurrected Jesus from obscurity because he taught passive obedience and turning the other cheek instead of violence.
