Sorry, but until the Constitution is abandoned and we ratify a new constitution and adopt some other form of government, we are still a representative republic. No, kids, we are not a democracy, no matter how many ill-informed civics and history teachers told you that. We are, and always were a republic.

I'm so burned out on work right now that I just would like to wake up in the morning when I'm ready and do whatever the hell I want without having to worry about work or kids or wife-type-people. I need a road trip bad, but gasoline is kicking my ass, so that ain't gonna happen. Maybe I'll just take up smoking marijuana. Take a trip without ever leaving the house!

I know it goes both ways, but it's usually the women that are notorious for that type of behavior. If a guy is playing hard to get, there must be a seeeeeerious personality flaw floating just below the surface. This particular individual has at least one lamp shade in their apartment that's made out of human skin.

Dude, I've said it before, but RUN from the chicks who play mind games of ANY kind. If she gets violent, don't just leave; call the cops, file a report and THEN leave. That way, if she does do something messed up, you have an official record of what she's up to. It's better to be by yourself than to be stuck with some chick who sucks the life out of you by being insane. If they can't handle money, RUN!!! God forbid you get married and then she drags you into bankruptcy with her!

ALL religious organizations collect money! Look at the Catholics! Here in Georgia, we have baptist churches that are as large as the @^$%^ mall! We've got the largest Hindu thingie in the Western hemisphere! It's all money!
The problem with the JWs is that they profess that they are the only true religion and that they are God's perfect organization. God's got nothing to do with it, and the fact that there are elders molesting little kids, beating their wives, screwing their neighbor's wives and DFing people for offences a lot less serious than the ones they commit daily is what makes them worse than the rest in my opinion. I wouldn't leave an errant fart to the JWs, much less any of my money.

The Republican Party Frustrates me!
by free2beme inbeing a former witness, when i first left the religion, i thought it would be a good idea to stick with a party that was fairly conservative in their stand.
although, in many ways i did not agree with them, i liked the republicans more then the democrats.
so i registered republican.

Sadly, most politicians tow the party line without giving any thought to what might be the right thing to do. I'd much rather vote for a politician who can think for himself and vote for what he believes in rather than just voting along with his party. Ultimately, I vote for what I believe is right and what is constitutional, I don't care what party proposed the idea.

Most political parties frustrate me! Personally, I am a fiscal conservative but a social liberal. I believe that people should be able to do whatever they want, just as long as it doesn't interfere with other people's rights to life, liberty or property. I also believe that the government shouldn't use my money on crap; just the necessities. So, most of the time I lean toward being a libertarian. As of late, even the libertarians frustrate me. I guess I'll vote for myself!

It's supply and demand.... When demand exceeds supply, the price goes up. Couple that with the fact that a bunch of crazy terrorist types control the oil, and it's bad news for all of us! If you had a monopoly on a vital product that the world couldn't do without, wouldn't you be tempted to fool around with the prices, too? Let's all be thankful that our food, water and oxygen doesn't all come from the middle east! Allah Be Praised, we'd all have to choose between starving to death, dying of thirst or suffocating!

Are You Content Within Yourself?
by AK - Jeff inleaving the borg of jehovah presents a somewhat lonely existence for many of us fallen angels.
for a time we may seek to find an entirely new body-associate.
many may find that after so many years in a controlled environment like the watchtower that they have a hard time finding a large group of friends again.

I guess I'm content. But, a little less weight and a lot more money would be nice. :)
