I heard that story about Boy George today too, plus the fact that I heard his new single on the radio this week and he's back to singing suggestive lyrics. If some brothers got together and formed a band and the singer sang the same words, you know they'd be reported to the elders and in that back room in no time, however, Prince can get away with it.

Prince: How the rock legend turned his life around
by Dogpatch inwhat is your opinion of prince nowadays?.
one of the worlds raunchiest rock stars, prince is in his stacked heels and flamboyant suit strutting from house to house around an ordinary suburban estate.. from: http://www.mirror.co.uk/celebs/news/2010/07/06/prince-how-the-rock-legend-turned-his-life-around-115875-22384807/.
flanked by minders, he goes up a garden path, knocks on a door and politely asks the householder: would you like to talk about god?.

This takes the cake
by Sour Grapes intoday during the public talk the speaker said that satan was behind the new modern phones, which are like mini computers, so that the world would have easy access to pornography..

So in other words, the brother that gave the talk today is a porn watcher, case closed.
Always those that protest the loudest are usually taking part in what they claim they hate.

I certainly was around when records were out but I never heard of them being referred to as 12 inches when you went to purchase them. i guess that's just a juvenile joke of yours.

WiFi problems? Want a faster network? Try Powerline Adapters!
by Simon inwifi is great.
it's so easy and convenient.
but it can be slow.. years ago when it first came out you maybe had a pc and a couple of other devices at most.

Gee Simon, that sounds great that there's a way to add faster speed to slow computers, etc. Now if only I understood what the heck you were talking about, the different parts and all that since I'm not a tech person !

Any funny stories of when a"brother" giving a talk, said something "funny" or "questionable", and didn't even realize it?
by Dunedain inthere were always all types of speakers in the org.
myself, growing up a "witness", must have heard all types of talks, and given by all manner of speakers, especially on sundays, when almost every week we would get a "visiting" brother giving the public talk.. sometimes, you would have a "great" speaker, all fluent and animated.
other times we would get a comical speaker, one who would maybe purposelly get a few laughs outta the audience.

Although I've been across the Verazzano Bridge a few times, Staten Island is the only borough I've never stepped foot in. All I know is Father Capadano Blvd, a main street there.

So Happy It's Thursday - SHIT, so appropriate for meeting and the brother didn't even realize it
Dunedain, can you disclose which borough you're from, or you might be found out, I'm in Queens.
