screen legend................. http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/movies/actor-tony-curtis-dies-at-85/story-e6frfmvr-1225932539056.
I am very sad. Tony Curtis was an awesome comedic actor. "Some Like It Hot" was an incredible masterpiece . . . I saw it WAY back in the 60's when I was totally sucked into the cult. I "Got it" when others around me did not . . .
My god be with you Tony, and keep you in his everlasting love. You made me smile many times . . . Love You, my brother!!! God Speed!!!
we last went to one in 2006 - it was the channel islands.

I showed this to my parents back in '04 when it was first published here with a link to the UN website.
Their responce: It was an elaborate fabrication by the "Evil Slave" . . including them hacking the UN website to place this document there.
le sigh . .
No I do not, but most of my family and ALL of my "so called" former friends do . .
oh wait, i threw them all out.. as you were..
Back in '95? when I decided NO MORE . . It was a beautiful summer Sunday morning when I got up and decided I had had enough . .I burned my entire WT library . . bound volumes back to the 1950s, all the hardcover pubs . . . . boxes and coxes of old mags . . etc etc . .
Took me most of the day . . they burned real good, no gasoline needed . .
Never looked back. Very cathartic and healing.
so another question involving my 15 year old nephew.
he and i are going to our first nfl game next month.
i've never gone through the national anthem dilemma as a non-jw.
The first time I stood for the National Anthem, I put my right hand over my heart, and . . I had tears in my eyes.
Same for the Pledge of Allegience.
BTW, how terrible is it that this should have to cause so much stress and anxiety? I mean everything, every action in life has to be overanalysed to make sure you're not breaking a cult rule.
Fuck them, Don't sweat it, put your hand over your heart and go with the flow. Be a positive example of a responsible citizen to your nephew.
i mean something really serious that you won't forgive/forget..
I sold a successful cleaning business with all the hardware and clients to a pioneer in the Onieda, NY congregation back in the 90's on a handshake.
He still owes me 25K, the terms were 5K/year over 5 years. Never saw a dime.
Also, several times I contracted a strip and wax to some local *Brothers* . . I ended up having to re-do parts of the jobs.
Come to think of it, every time I ever got fucked, it was a Witnoid who did it . .
i have been in a world of pain this weekend.. some of you know the ongoing battle i have had with my ex wife, an uber dub hypocrite, over seeing my kids more.
3 weeks ago i managed to secure an agreement from her that provided my 13 yr old daughter friday night to sunday afternoons and for my 16 yr old son to have friday night to sat afternoon with the option to extend it to sunday if he so desires.
this is each second weekend.. first due weekend visit she rearranged the days so that she was technically pre agreement start date.

I went through the same back in the 80s. It is a very long story without a happy ending that I won't get into here.
Although I do not post much here, I have followed your story with interest because it so closely parallels mine. I think you did the right thing, and I pray to whatever gods there are that they grant you relief in this difficult issue and grant you the opportunity to be a father to your beautiful children whom you obviously love very much.
Peace be with you, my Brother.
I did as a teenager into my 20s . .
A bonus was every once in awhile you got a really good look at a hot sisters cleavage!!
i have done this thread a long time ago , but a few newbies have joined recently and may have had some experiances to share , there was 2 in the congregation i was involved with (i was a "study" ) one was from bethel in america and got deported after his prison sentence and the other was reprooved for abuse then carried on abusing in the congregation , years later he abused my daughter and after i found out i reported him to the police , but he had got off "scot free" for 20 years untill i reported him .
i believe the one from bethel was reported to the police simply because elders kids were affected ..
