Ridiculous teenager counselled at Assembly.
by Duncan inthe ridiculous teenager is me.
this story takes me back to 1969, when i was 15 years old.
we were attending the international assembly at wembley stadium, near london, the only time, i think, that wembley was ever used for an assembly.. if youve ever read any of the stories i posted on jwd over the years, youll know that i was never one of those kids growing up in the truth who always had doubts about it or was unhappy and miserable with the religion, just waiting for the chance to get out.

Question for Believers: How can God be PERFECT?
by kid-A inseveral weeks ago the issue of god's 'perfect nature' came up on a thread.
the concept of "perfection" is a persistent in vitually all faith traditions and theological constructs.. jws in particular, have an obsession with the concept of perfection and use it regularly in their propaganda: "live forever in a perfect paradise earth"; "live forever in perfect health"; "humans and animals will live together in perfect harmony", etc etc...... the point was raised about the possibility or impossibility of god being perfect.
if we begin with the basic judaeo-christian tenet that god created the universe from nothingness, then he is the designer and creator of every single entity, sentient or non-sentient, and object within reality.

housed at the rio grand hotel, prince las vegas promises to be one of the biggest and most widely attended concerts to date in las vegas.

And here I would have thought his club would have been named something more like "Club 607".

That's What I'M Talkin' About!
by Farkel incall me a curmudgeon.
there are just some expressions in today's vernacular that are just idiotic, and "that's what i'm talkin' about" is one of these.
it is so ghetto.. several people are saying 'blah, blah, blah, de blah and more de blah..." suddenly, a dimwit in the group hears something that dimwit didn't even mention but happens to like the subject and then dimwit blurts out, "now that is what i'm talkin' about!".

can't be a school crossing guard. were viewed as suspicious when saying things like "take it easy." I suppose this would apply to any "worldly" expression in any era though. colors: i grew up being told that black shirts were forbidden there was a time when carrying a black bible was a definite no-no could have been a local thing only? do not be caught wearing green on st. patty's day however. jw kids used to get pinched ALOT! wearing red, white and blue... not so much. an interest in magic could get you in trouble with the powers that be. funny too, how a simple card trick could get you labeled as a practitioner of the black arts. 'twas an odd life to be sure.

if you like blues with an edge (and who doesn't?), you might have a listen to Bugs Henderson. I've been a fan for years but I think he "piddles" a bit much sometimes. Still, good guitaring.
