Hmmm..... Pizza. Which is why we haven't ordered pizza at my house in over a year. I haven't lost a damned pound, so I guess it really didn't matter.

It's marketing, people. If you study marketing, when companies send unsolicited flyers or advertisements out through the mail, they only expect 0.7% response from that mailing. If they send out a million flyers, they may only get 700 responses out of that, and they consider that a good turnaround. So, if 1,000,000 tracts get distributed, roughly 700 people might respond. If the campaign is really shitty, they might get 200 studies, which is all gravy to the organization, because that equates to 2 new congregations contributing money to the WTBTS monthly, and 200 more people providing free labor to bring in more converts. It's a winner for them! If just one person joins the org., then it's a winner! Think of all the free labor and donations they will get just from that one person over the years. I have a stack of tracts at home. I use them to start my fireplace. See? Even I have a use for them, so it's all good.

Thanks everybody.
The man who interviewed my wife and questioned her asked her a little bit about her story of comming to America and everything she had to go through. The man was actually in tears by the time my wife was finished telling him about it all. It's taken my wife 10 years from the time she applied for her original visa to come to the US until the time she finally received her citizenship yesterday. The woman who conducted the citizenship ceremony has been doing it for 25 years, and she still gets choked up and teary when she does it. That ceremony was one of the most moving things I've ever seen in my life.

I remember watching an old episode of the Ed Sullivan show when I was little. Jose Feliciano was playing "The Flight Of The Bumblebee". Half way through he dropped his pick. He didn't stop. He played through to the end, shredding his fingers on the strings and spraying blood on the guitar. I was impressed.

I watched yesterday all day long as people from all over the world were sworn in as citizens 100 at a time every hour on the hour. I was there for 7 hours, so I saw roughly 700 people become citizens, including my wife. I talked with a lot of those people, and it didn't matter where they were from, they all made one thing is clear: America is, in fact, the greatest country in the world.
So many of us don't know how lucky we are to be born here in America. We take it for granted. The people I saw yesterday know better. And I have a new-found appreciation for my American citizenship.

Is it better to stay married one time or have been married couple of times?
by asilentone ini know it is a hard question, i would like to know your thoughts.

I think that it's nice to find the right one the first time and never leave them. But, it doesn't always work that way. It's better to be married a few times and find the right one than stay married to the wrong one for the rest of your life.

Promiscuous or sexually free?
by brunnhilde inso i'm 37 and i've only been with one man, my ex-husband, in my entire life.
i just started a new relationship with a wonderful man but i'm fighting the preprogramming that comes from being a dub for 35 years.
how have other people overcome the inhibitions and issues that come from the ridiculously rigid sexual mindset of the wtbs?

If you have enough "guts" and lack of "inhibition" to get naked and have sex in the first place, then why the hang-up? Just do what comes naturally and keep an open mind. Don't let imaginary restrictions on what's "acceptable" or "proper" in the bedroom keep you from enjoying sex to its fullest potential. Whatever two people want to do with, for or to each other is acceptable - for that couple. And it ain't nobody else's business! So get busy!

How's it like... living in the South?
by Preston inhere in lovely phoenix, az there's a part of me that's tired of phoenix's one redemable feature (reasonable housing prices) and dismiss the cacti, hot temps, lackluster football teams, golfing culture and predominance of fake people with orange tans and..... ... live in a nice bungalow on a country road, havin' a truck with a gun rack, a (rainbow) confederate flag, cranking up some nice soothing wanda jackson, grow myself a big booshy moustache, wear a denim vest, get myself a bassett hound and sit on a front porch in my rocking chair while whispering to myself "it's good to own land.".
for those of you that live in the deep south... or just the regular south.... how's it treating you?
i may consider a change in living arrangements.. - preston.

Hmmmm..... I'm not aware of too many "bungalows" lining the country roads around here, but if you were to find one, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want to piss off the local folk by flying a rainbow confederate flag.
But it's ok. You can live in the south and not have a confederate flag. Or a gun rack. Or a dog. Or even live on a country road. Most of us don't live out in the country or own a confederate flag. I'm sure that most of us don't even think about having sex with our cousins. Housing is very affordable here. You can have anything from a multi-million dollar estate all the way down to a single-wide trailer out in a field somewhere.
It's still pretty hot here, though. I nearly fried myself to death yesterday working up in the attic. It's almost like Arizona, without the cacti. We even have more than enough illegal Mexicans to make you feel like you're in AZ. C'mon down to Georgia and have a ball.

Grass anyone?
by Quirky1 inthe title may have lured you here but since it is summertime i am just curious how many people here have yards they have to take care of?
if so, how big of a yard do you have?
what do you use to mow your yard?

I had a nice yard when I bought my house. The drought has screwed up my yard bigtime. Sadly, my screwed up yard is still the nicest in the neighborhood. The other yards went to hell a looooong time ago.
