  I like your window view Leolaia. Peaceful looking.
  and the cat on the computer...my kitten looks a lot like him but likes to lay on the mousepad rather than the keyboard; so far.

  An Odd Memory from a Score and Three-Quarters back.....

  by AK - Jeff in

  on my return today with some lunch delicacies and a grand bottle of gewurztraminer to wash it smoothly, i recalled some events from 35 years back that clearly reflect the apocalyptic mindset of the jdubs in the pre-armageddon years.. the brother of the fellow who brought me this glorious good news that jehovah's witlesses were the 'truth' once took me to his bedroom to show me a small area on his wall that had been repaired by his father recently.

  before they replaced the drywall and painted, marvin elected it prudent to prepare a gift kit for that wall that included a copy of the new world translation and a copy of the truth book.

  his plan was that in the sudden destruction that was to come in the form of the great tribulation, he might have all his literature confiscated, and he could simply kick the panel out of the wall and be duly served with 'spiritual food from jehovah'.. i must have been correctly impressed with the need to 'heed the day and times and seasons', for a few months later, having left my family home due to 'worldly influence' of my non-witless family and inactive mother, i was speaking with the elderly sister who had offered me sanctuary so that i might 'declare the truth' as a pioneer.

  I did know an elder that said he had a bible hidden away so when the GT came he would still have access to one. I thought it was weird then, I still do. Don't they have any of this stuff memorized YET? What possible good would....oh, nevermind. Can't figure out the inner workings of the illogical. I didn't know it was a widespread idea among them but I shouldn't be surprised.

  i've been on the board for quite a while now and was wondering, what do my fellow jwdr's do for work, employment or career?

  me, i'm in probably one of the most hated careers in america right now.

  (not gonna tell you what it is either) but how about you, what do you do to earn a little coin?.

  We cut our electricity bill in half

  we did it by reducing television and air conditioner usage, being more conservative about using the oven, getting rid of an old freezer, and changing our light bulbs.

  .

  i'm very proud of us!

  Just got my bill yesterday. $285 but I was actually expecting closer to $400. Gotta have a/c but even at that it's not really cool enough for me. Need new ductwork and I need to check into the radiant barrier I keep hearing about. Had the A/C checked a couple of weeks ago and the tech's thermometer showed it to be 146 degrees in my attic - and that was before noon! I've gotta do something to get the light bill down some which means I have a lot of work to do...when the weather cools down!

  another topic talking about the dubs fear of armageddon reminded me of a pretty scary dream i had as a dub:.

  i was in a doctor's office waiting to be called in (i know, that's scary enough!

  ), and there were windows along one wall floor to ceiling.

  Not my crazy dream but that of my brother. He told me today that last night he dreamed he was becoming a werewolf and he thinks he was howling in his sleep! Must be all the talk of the moon lately...lunar eclipse and Mars as big as etc. But I can just picture neighbors waking up to hear the woofman next door! lol
  
  Now me, I dreamed I had a life once. How crazy is THAT!

  i could make comments about her being a dumb blonde but i won't, do to the fact that my own daughter is blonde, pretty, and intellegent.

  but this girl and her school system where she supposedly got an education should be ashamed.

  if this were my daughter or one of my students..........i would hang my head!

  Her school system? Is that anywhere near our solar system? You know, the solar system in our U.S. America. Or maybe she was home skooled.
  At any rate, she's definitely worth educatin'.

  GRRRR - Swollen Knuckles.

  recently i told you guys about my bipolar, well today i lost it big time.. having an arguement with megans mum and in the middle of it, she says 'dont you feel ashamed not working and living off the state' and that 'bipolar wasnt an excuse really'.. then a moment later cos i shot her down on that (since she doesnt know about bipolar) she says that if its so bad i should be f****** sectioned.

  at that point i said to her if she spoke another word it was likely my fist would end up in her mouth (just talk but i felt like it) and then i was pushed to far, so i hit the door.

  the door is solid, i would like to confirm to everyone that this door does not have a soft center, i hit it so damn hard, i had to vent somehow - my knuckles are swollen.. the arguement ended and its dealt with, she said megan was making up claims of her stepdad abusing her now he is dead, because she wants her mum to love him less wtf?.

  Not trying to be funny here but this made me remember a book-study conductor ages ago. I was little and didn't think anything of it at the time but their house had all these little mirrors on doors and walls etc. Pretty randomly placed too. Found out later that under all those mirrors were holes where the guy would put his fist through. So I guess after some well placed punches a little fashion sense can spiff it all up.

  there is no kroger store now on east broadway in north little rock, arkansas.

  it was demolished to make way for the new alltell arena.

  the fifty-yard line, that black night club, is also gone and the pawn shop that was next to it.

  Found 'em. Taken with an old digital lo-rez camera.
  

  

  I also need to get out and take some photos. I do enjoy looking for a good angle.
