I got involved with hobbies that allowed me to make non-JW friends. Not going to meetings and field service freed up a whole lot of time to re-capture my life and clear my head. When you leave something bad it does not take very long to move forward and heal.

If only it was wrong for everyone to use the N-word. Not only is society easily offended but they are also selectively offended.
Watch this video for the first 18 seconds. Picture a white guy doing the exact same material. If we are truly color blind then the race should not matter, right?

I have sex but I can't say the "F" word on TV or Radio.
Double standards water down the message and make a whole lot of people look like hypocrites. It is extremely disingenuous and very counterproductive.

He will be back and sooner then later. His show was one of the top rated on A&E and after some apologizing and jumping through some PC hoops another network will by the licensing rights. He will get a new contract and it will be business as usual, just like Imus, Mel Gibson and Michael Richards. Money makes more noise then offensive words ever will.

Hospital hygiene, hand washing study
by Fatfreek ina hospital in arkansas has isolated its entire intensive care unit and isn't admitting new patients due to the outbreak of a potentially deadly drug-resistant bacterial infection, foxnews.com has confirmed...it is not known how the patients were exposed to the pathogen acinetobacter.. .
the strain bears similarities to so-called "staph" infections but is unrelated, according to chopra.
it tends to afflict very sick people, can be fatal and is the third most common bacterial infection in hospital icus.. .

Handwashing removes the pathogens where hand sanitizing gels have the potentail to create mutant bacterias after a a while. That is creating yet another problem.

I would be interested in the dynamics inside his family that lead his son to throw him under the bus like that. What he said is very offensive and I find it disturbing how many kids are living in his house learning that language/attitude from him and Beth. I liked the show alot but I am very disapointed in his true feelings that he revealed.
I hope he does some deep soul searching and grows beyond his cultural hatred. Of all the TV personalities I would have considered him the least likely to be racist. Just one more phony Christain busted.

I live about ten miles from JZ Knight the leader of the Ramatha School of Enlightenment. Many of her followers hang around here and they pretty much own the city. They have some bizzare beliefs but they don't bug other people like another cult that we know of.
We also still have rare but consistant mullet sightings. They are not extinct yet but listed as endangered fortunately.
