Had a molar pulled a few years ago and it took months for the gum to fill in. It took about a year to chew on that side. Plus I now get the ocassional phantom tooth ache. The tooth cracked at the filling, and I really should have just got it fixed.

HAPLOGROUP
by worldtraveller inwhen you all get a chance to read about this, it is quite interesting.. to make a long story short, dna has been studied and there is sufficient evidence to show that the origin of man is not from the middle east, but is in fact from central africa.
what was found is that people migrated north, then west.
it stated that 75% of people are originally from a jewish background after the northerly trek.

This was traced back in time long before Adam and Eve.
For more info you can watch the episode of The Colbert Report. It repeats at 2 pm on the west on the Comedy Network, and on CTV at 4 pm, here in Canada later today.

If it was true, that you can't change anyone, then why are all these people here? Doctors never give up hope on diseases, never give up. Otherwise you lose. I see here in my short few days nothing but winners here.

Nosy questions for the Americans
by dobbie infollowing on from the thread the other week with questions for the brits, i thought i'd ask a few i'd like to know about you, just call me a nosey bag!.
1. as you don't have nhs, what happens if a sick child was in a medical emergency, is there a charity that covers them or will treatment sometimes get withheld if there is no insurance?.
2. what accent does nicholas cage have?

Coronation Street is broadcast in Canada, and in US border towns. We are about 9 months behind. Tracy Barlow has yet to kill her bf. Sometimes silly, but always interesting. Currently on the show, it's Christmas '06 . Anything with Rowan Atkinson is good as well.

Sorry ppl, but I see nothing funny about that pix. Humiliation is an awful thing to do to anyone, never mind a young child.

Can we still be friends even if we are not JWs???
by Justafriend inrecently i have noticed that a couple of my friends that are jws, especially this one guy that i play sports with.
in the beginning he was just there because of a friend, but later on he came more often and we became friends.
from the start, i knew there was something different about him.

As I am new to this forum, I have to tell you and everyone that is not aware, that I too have a JW "friend" and the people above me(on this string) are for the most part correct. Worldly people are here (on this earth) to be converted. I confronted my friend 3 weeks ago, and as usual, more denial.
I believe that it's hypocritical to do what they (your friends) are doing. Either you are or are not a follower. I really wanted to believe my friend, but his true colours were exposed when I confronted him with all the info I learned from here and other "apostate"sites.
The most important thing I learned is that according to what an apostate is, one has to lie about what being a JW is. I see none of that here, so my trust in these people (witnesses) have totally washed away. That is not to say that my friend isn't honest, just lost in the brainwashing nonsense that cults do.
Believe me in that it's all about 1 thing only---MONEY.
And one thing- I watched a program about dna this morning. Boy do all of us (religious and otherwise) have a surprise coming shortly.
Please, all of you look up- haplogroup-- on the net. I will post a brief string shortly about dna scientists have discovered. Unlike The Watchtower Society says, dna does not lie.

A mother's bitterness
by jgnat ini had to deal with rejection from my mom this last week.
her behavior was shocking to my poor hubby.
perhaps i dreaded it all along.

My dad was a bully, my mom , a drunk. As long as the house had no booze, life ws ok. Unfortunately not very often. But why go on with such s$%tty memories.
Doris Day did-Que Sera Sera
Peter, Paul, and Mary did-Lemon Tree.
The point? Music kept me alive. Most of the time, I couldn't understand the vocals anyway. These days, it's better no one does.
So do as I had to-screw the past-the future is our oyster! Does that make sense?
