  A Tasty Lil Bit O' Gossip.

  here's a picture of the late sir john fieldhouse during his time as an admiral in the royal navy.

  he later became first sea lord and was in charge of operations during the falklands war when england and argentina slugged it out in the south atlantic back in '82.

  his wife shown here is lady fieldhouse - known to her friends as midge - who is a very active jehovahs witness residing in lee on solent, near portsmouth.

  To Joelbear With Love

  joel, i want you to know i can think of no other poster who shows as much humanity, as much compassion and insight as you, particularly when it comes to the human condition.. thank you for sharing yourself and your journey so openly; i'm grateful for that.

  you obviously have picked up many helpful tools in your recovery toolkit, and when you not only share them with us but show how to use them, how they can benefit us, we are the richer.. i need not say more, than that you are loved very much.. maximus.

  who once in a while learns from joel a leeeetle more than he needed to, but what else is new?

  Someone shared with me William Styron's book "Visible Darkness," in which the famed author describes his own terrifying bleak experiences with depression and being in that same dark place you describe, Joel. He notes "I've been touched by the wings of madness."

  It gets better. I know.

  We all know you don't need this thread, but it is we who need to reflect the same gentle humanity and compassion you have so graciously shone on us.

  Holding hands with you in the dark,

  MSIL, thanks for your alert and your admirable fortitude for toughing it out here. I predict you will wind up with some close friendships off-list.

  Question for you or anyone up and about. Talking to Max today who noted his security system went off the chart with activity, then cable service went down. Digital TV frozen, can't contact IP, a major player. Am I to assume Code Red is taking down servers? Thnx.

  Nourishment for the Spirit

  by Maximus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my observation is that persons who 1) heal/adjust the most rapidly from their jw experience and 2) seem to have the most joy in life are those who read, read, read, in pursuit of what i call nourishment for the spirit.

  i've really enjoy the pithy aphorisms you use here, which suggests you've distilled some wisdom from somewhere.

  i'm going to ask your help in this thread.

  Re-------Jehovah's Witnesses

  by ladonna in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is a letter i have planned on writing for some time, a letter that i claim is extremely important and one that certainly must be heeded if we are to undo the damage caused by jehovah's witnesses.

  unless you share my view that i am making an appeal to the intelligence of the reader not to be fooled by jehovah's witnesses's demagoguery, there's no need for you to hear me further.

  it has been said that jehovah's witnesses is doing the very thing for which it criticizes others.

  Ladonna,

  La donna e non mobile. That was superb, and right on target. You should let it have gone on and let it be dissected and parsed, tone read into it, questionable motive attached, someone offended, the usual. A great lesson.

  Cosi fan tutte.

  panel oks bill requiring clergy to report abuse.

  by john mcelhenny, the associated press.

  boston priests and other clergy have been havens for secrets, virtually beyond the reach of civilian authority or law for thousands of years.. but after widespread reports of sexual abuse of children by priests and a middleton church worker, lawmakers are moving to get rid of a long-held clerical privilege in the name of protecting children.. on tuesday, lawmakers gave initial approval to a bill that would require priests and other clergy to report sexual abuse of children to law enforcement if they learn about it outside of the confessional.. we need to make the hierarchy of whatever religion understand that they cant allow the people under them to get away with the things theyve gotten away with, said rep. patricia haddad, d-somerset.

  Now there is a piece of work, the Legal Department at its finest.

  She has blabbed once too often, too much detail about how she has given the shiv to "whitey" and the Devil's spawn. That will come back to haunt her.

  Anybody know Carolyn? Or is Mr. Moreno more your type--you know, with the on-the-side business connections; insurance and all that.
