"And there was a woman in charge of the line who treated us all like 2nd graders."

From what I have seen and experienced, IN GENERAL, the type of person who enjoys working the election board is THAT type of person. I will just leave it at that.

The absentee balloting is available 7 days a week where I am at. It is really the way to go if you have any doubt about your time commitment.

108 seconds per person.

Not too bad.

i have had 2 myspace accounts deleted in the last six months.

If you "hated on them" in any way, it could be viewed as a violation. They are a religion, and somewhere in the fine print of the user agreement is a clause forbidding this.

Example:

I hate Jews! Judaism ruined my life!
I hate Catholics! Catholicism ruined my life!
I hate JWs! JWs ruined my life!

Alles Verboten, mein Freundin.

Even though many get away with this type of thing on their pages, it is actually against the user agreement.

When was the Mosaic law abolished?

by digderidoo in

luke 16:16... "the law and the prophets were until john" 29ce.

colossians 2:14..nwt(sorry).."by nailing it to the torture stake" 33ce.

paul.

John followed the Law.

Jesus fulfilled the Law.

It was phased out, and Jah put up with those who clung to it for quite a while, as we can see from the subject of several of the apostle Paul's letters.

i am soooo tired of seeing his name here!...it just looks too much like mine.

as much as i think he is pathetically inexperienced...like palin......i kinda hope he could fix healthcare.

my little biz is now going to have to pay 79k this year for healthcare for just 16 employees and their family......and that is only with us paying 60 percent of the premium....and for 5 straight years we have had to raise our deductable........this sucks...for 15 years i was so proud to pay 100 percent of the insurance benefit, but now i cant.......it is depressing.......i am a small business, and really can not afford the 79k i have to contribute this year (tears in my eyes dammit).....the oldest employee i have is only 50 years old.......and when that happend our rates went to hell even faster....one kid.....only 11 years old is 179 bucks a month!!!

Small business consultant here.

Dagney is right. Shop for better rates. Let your current provider know you are shopping for rates. They will quickly react.

I have helped some clients do this for commercial auto insurance, with success.

Let's get real about SHUNNING

by passwordprotected in

a good friend of mine dad a few months ago because he'd moved in with his 'worldly' g/f and he was already partially being stalked by the local boe.

since then his mother will have nothing to do with him, neither will his sister and her family.

a few of the more real jws that genuinely care about him have kept a level of contact up.

I am still laughing inside at the fact that only elders, their wives, and their children shun me, but others are like "we miss you! When are you coming back?"

Uh, never.

(Oh, my friend's ex-wife shuns me, too, but I think she would shun me regardless! Plus, I re-shun her ass right back.)
