i am loving this victory. however, i do think the b.c.s. is really b.s. a playoff system NEEDS to be in place.people voting for the title is ridiculous. we had to wait until this morning to see if we were the undisputed champs. that sucks.

i loved it when they showed the buckeye band after they went up by 10 points. they were screaming it's over and stuff like that. then after 21 unanswered points, they went back to them looking on in disbelief. hahahahahahahahahahahaha

Should I DA myself?

by OMG! Now What? in

i'm new here and am hoping to get some support and become normal again.

i'm going to tell my story below, sorry in advance for how long it is, but i've really gotta get a grip on who i am now and what i need to do.

since before my baptism and for four years, my children and i attended every meeting.

bigdreaux

sounds like you've done a successful fade. i'd let it go. you have no reason to further contact them.

as far as moving on and getting a normal life,there is no magic bullet or phrase that can help. stick around, get to know some of the people here, and over time, it gets better. i promise.

Whenever you buy something new, do you take an extended warranty?

by JH in

jw

i hardly ever take an extended warranty.

call me cheap, but something new shouldn't break.

and if it does, the 1 year coverage should be enough to make sure i didn't buy a lemon.. many say that companies make their money with additional warranties, and that you're better off not taking it and paying for the repair if ever there is one to be made.. when i see a 27 tv at 250$ compared to 700$ 10 years ago, i won't pay for an additional warranty.

bigdreaux

hortensia is correct. if your buying a used car out of warranty, or close to it, get the warranty. just make sure you read all the fine print to be sure of what your buying.

I Am Legend JW email

by Descender in

so my sister-in-law, who is a pretty hardcore jw, showed me an email that looked like it had been passed around quite a bit, so i figured someone on here had probably seen it.

supposedley it's a picture from the movie "i am legend" where will smith is walking through new york and all the buildings in the background are in ruins except for the bethel building, which stands out, undamaged and clean.

i watched the movie and don't remember seeing anything like that so i just figured that some jw photoshopped it and sent it out to the jw community to show that the bethel building is protected by god even in a post apocaliptical world run over with zombie vampires.

bigdreaux

the way they talk about the building almost sound like idolatry. anyone else see that?

Preaching work - What other religion preaches??

by Black Man in

jw
friends

i know the mormons go door to door and i have seen some church of god people occasionally.

who else has organized preaching ministries (door to door, etc.)?

i'm in an ongoing dialogue with relatives and this is one of their contentions - that the witnesses must have the truth (despite the many fallacies) because they are the only one that go door to door preaching.
