  The Moody Blues - Your Favorite Songs and Albums from them ?

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a band i really liked a lot growing up and as an adult was he moody blues.

  their mixing of orchestration from an instrument called the " mellotron " and mixing the orchestration with electric guitars was fantastic.

  they wrote very meaningful lyrics analyzing the situations in life as well as the world scene at the time.

  believe it or not - i was just introduced to frank zappa music by my wife - and another poster here jk 666, this last few months !

  when i was a witness years ago my self righteous ex-wife ( a witness ) always tried to control my rock n' roll spirit within me - to no avail .

  it finally burst forth all over the place as years went by .

  What are your Guilty Pleasures of a geeky/nerdy variety?

  by Crumpet in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i don't mean the ones we know about already - things people wouldn't think you did or enjoyed to look at you.. i love watching ray mears extreme survival and learning about how to survive and find food and shelter in extreme climates even though there is a strong possibility that i shall never try and escape naked from a japanese prisoner of war camp, or crash without a flagon of water into the sahara, or come stuck in my ship in a freezing ice plateau in deepest antartica.

  .

  what's your guilty geeky pleasure?.

  i thought it would be interesting to see just how many people have climbed aboard jwd within the last 6 months.

  it will give us an indication on how many people are actually coming away from the borg.. i may not be replying all the time but will pop in every day of so.. lets keep this thread going and use it to welcome new ones.

  may i be the first to say welcome.

  Who did you/do you want to be when you grew up?

  by Crumpet in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  when i was 9 i wanted to be daisy duke from the dukes of hazzard, but had to put aside the dream when i realised my legs weren't going to ever get any longer.. when i was 12 i wanted to be ghandi, but realised wars wouldnt stop because i missed breakfast.. when i was 16 i decided that by leaving the borg and living fast and hard enough being alice cooper was achievable.. now i'm 32 i think i'd quite like to have the sensuous, striking confidence and certainty of helen mirren when i grow up.. who did you want to be and why?.

  What type of person are you attracted to now?

  by Layla33 in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  i was just thinking about this the other day, about how my ideas of a romantic partner have changed since being a jw.. growing up, i thought i would marry a very upstanding jw, we would pioneer together, do missionary work, have children, see the world.

  (never had any thoughts about bethel, though.

  ) so what it boiled down to was a stepford husband, up tight, not the least bit sexual, closed minded bore.. so now that i have grown up, seen the world, been married (and actually picked a good man the first time, although it didn't work out), i just contrast that with what i am attracted to now.. i like them open minded, earthy, i love artistic types because i am a published writer, hair doesn't matter to me (long/short, bald, etc), challenges convention, very sexual, still like a traveling man.. i am just curious if you anyone else can compare and contrast how their ideas have changed since breaking out the group-think of the jw organization..
