@ serenity now re: why no high heels?

at the risk of "shooting myself in the foot" here
i really don't find anything redeeming about them...
they contribute to back and foot injuries (both parents
in medical professions, dr and nurse so i heard it all!)
they just arent my cuppa tea, dont like the look or
the distorted gait one has to walk while wearing them

AND at least half the shoes i own were someone else's first

(my gay older brother HATED my shoes, go figger...
still miss you, michael, but i aint wearing heels!)

a woman at the KH i attended had a disturbing attachment
to the practice, after the death of her toddler who had CP....

she was fervently "religious" to get tracts out in the mail
the week of any obit with an address, and being small
town rural, it wasn't that hard to look addresses up

JW's forgetting names

by highdose in

jw
friends

i encountered in my time as a jw, an alarming number of jw brothers who just couldn't remember people names.. alot of the these brothers were the watchtower conductors for their congs too!.

is this a jw affliction?.

chickpea

i have to say the syndrome is applied
once one has left the fold, because i
see faces i know are from the KH and
i am damned if i can remember names!!!

funny but true, one "bro" is attending
classes at the same tech college where
i was taking a class... we passed, he said
"hi, chickpea" and for the life of me there
was no way i could conjure his name.....
spent HOURS trying to remember

and his name is the same as my husband's!!!!!

Pick up those Laundry Mat/Hospital Magazines and Mark them with SEE JWFACTS.COM!!!

by Lady Liberty in

good morning everyone..."happy monday" to you!!.

so for some time now, in attempt to help prevent the dubs from spreading their lies in the magazines, my parents (rock hound and little bo peep) have been stopping by the local laundry mats and taking out all the watchtower and awakes that are left behind and with a pen they write on the magazine, see jwfacts.com, and then they highlight it, and put it back in the laundry mat!

they have been doing this for some time now, and guess what??

i ordered a little self inking folding stamp
from <generic> office supply site

and on the back in the spaces
for requesting a bible study....

Theocratic Ministry School Assignments

by XPeterX in

the elders would give me the assignment about a month before my speech.man i used to wake up at nights thinking about it,being so anxious,so depressed...i also used to read explosively fast in order to get back to my seat as soon as possible and leave during the second song.

"it's a good think to be anxious about your assignment" they said.no motherockers it ain't good,it ain't no f()&uinng good it's like smashing one's balls with a sledgehammer.anyone had the same feelings?.

i did all the writing of parts for the family,
the hub and 2 older boys, my daughter
and my own... HATED the #3s, but the
talks were always well parrot-ed, always
reflected the dr0ne regurgitation of b0rg
propaganda

there was once an announcement that
EVERYONE should be prepared so as to
be able to give a talk if someone didnt
show up.... the enthusiasm from the
audience was underwhelming, to say
the very least....
