Bush: Im focused on gas prices but unaware of $4 gas.
by nvrgnbk inbush: im focused on gas prices but unaware of $4 gas.during his press conference today, a reporter asked president bush what his advice would be to the average american who is facing the prospect of $4 a gallon gasoline.
bush replied, thats interesting, i hadnt heard that.
yet a few minutes later, bush wouldnt answer a question regarding donations for his presidential library because, he claimed, i, frankly, have been focused elsewhere, like on gasoline prices.

... it's been a Beatles night! What's your favorite?
by dawg insome fine ladies next door came and hung out tonight, i have to work tomorrow, so i couldn't go with them to the brazilian night "carnival" planed for later this evening.... bit i managed to let them hear the beatles "abby road" album with a few glasses of wine before they left.
they had never heard it, mostly because they're in their 20's, but not one lady left before they wanted to buy their own copy... 'something" was their favorite... they said it was one of the most sexy songs they ever heard... old george wrote my most favorite songs by the beatles... "here comes the sun" is my favorite george song... what's yours?

I like who I am and who I am becoming.
I wish my growth had not been stunted.
I wish I was where I am now thirty years ago.

It happened in 1978 and I began my Bible study in 1979.
Jonestown was the short-lived settlement which was made in northwestern Guyana by the Peoples Temple, a cult from California, and which became lastingly and internationally notorious in 1978, when nearly its whole population died in a mass murder-suicide orchestrated by their leader, Jim Jones. The name of the settlement thus became, also, a term for that incident. The site is now an abandoned ruin.
Named after Jones, Jonestown was founded on his initiative in the mid-1970s, as an agricultural commune. It stood amidst jungle, about seven miles (11 km) southwesterly from Port Kaituma. Jonestown's population was about one thousand, once it was fully established and the bulk of Jones' followers had moved to it, but most of them lived there for under a year.
In November of 1978, United States CongressmanLeo Ryan, accompanied by reporters and a delegation of concerned relatives of Peoples Temple members, visited Jonestown to investigate allegations of abuses there. The visit ended in the murders of Ryan and four others by members of the Peoples Temple, shot at the Port Kaituma airstrip as they were about to fly out. That evening, November 18, Jones led his followers in their mass murder-suicide. Somewhat over nine hundred men, women and children perished, Jones among them.
Jonestown was shortly abandoned by the collapsing remnant of the Peoples Temple. Afterward, it was at first tended by the Guyanese government, which allowed its re-occupation by Hmong refugees from Laos, for a few years in the early 1980s, but it has since been altogether deserted. [1] It was looted but otherwise avoided by the local Guyanese, mostly destroyed by a fire in the mid-1980s, and its remains were left to decay and be reclaimed by the jungle.

There is none so blind as he who will not see.
I can't remember when Jonestown happened but I think it was about the same time that I got involved in the JW cult. It used to be whenever I thought of it I was so grateful to know the "truth". Now it sickens me more than ever. So very sad.

I am so confused by politics, my head has been buried in the sand so long supporting a non-existent kingdom. I am trying to get up to speed so I can actually vote for someone.
