The Moody Blues - Your Favorite Songs and Albums from them ?
by flipper ina 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.

Frank Zappa - What were your Favorite songs or Albums from Him ?
by flipper inbelieve 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 ini 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?.

As some already know...I love "subbed"Anime,prototyping,modding stuff,just about anything electronic(former RadioShack junkie),building PCs,generally building stuff,working on cars,etc...and as a kid,used to love reading encyclopedias in my spare time,which is why i usually had the highest scores on any test i took,despite the fact that i never studied for them._KS

Nah,not really..just making sure i get ALL my meals in,and being calories conscious..AND I am making sure i drink more than enough water so that my fat metabolizing organs have what they need to do their jobs..all this water is also helping make my skin look better too,lmao.
On my cardio,i'm doing as this month's M&F suggest,and doing shorter cardio sessions,BUT with HIIT(HighIntensityIntervalTraining),instead of steady state like i was doing, and it looks to be doing wonders. I do some time on the elliptical for high intensity,then switch to the treads with hill setting for low intensity portion,it's helping shock my body into burning fat for fuel,as opposed to my muscle during steady state. I'm only burning 500-600 cals between the two,but now i'm more sure the weight i'm losing is pure fat weight..my resting heart rate,and BP has also gone down since i got on the ball too._KS

Well proplog,seeing as this is the"JEHOVAH'S WITNESS DISCUSSION FORUM"..I guess I'm missing the point where an "Irish Catholic" woman doing anything that made the news would be of interest to people here.
After some of the shit people have gone through,and are STILL going through at the hands of JW's you don't think being a little slanted in view wouldn't be justified? JW's try to hide their dirt harder than any other religion i've ever seen,the purpose of this is to keep up that facade of being "different therefore right" that they like to laud over other religions because they happen to be better at hiding their dirt from the media..With that in mind...I don't think the article is what's "stupid" in this case.._KS

@Tatiana
As eerie as it is,you are almost exactly like my older sis..she would just get depressed,and cry all the time..which further angered me. She got beat up a lot by my mom too,but usually i did so much stuff,that my mom wouldn't even notice her sometimes. Till this day i'm VERY protective of her.
My mom for the most part,i believe genuinely doesn't remember what she did...she repressed the memories to such a degree that,years starts blending together for her,and she doesn't remember specifics,EXCEPT when it's stuff that i did.lmao she got mad when I told her that i noticed it,and i started calling it"selective memory"..at that point i told her,i remember everything..all the way back till i was about 2 or 3..i actually remember not being able to read,or walk very good. At 3,I was attacked by a doberman pincher as the owner of the dog,who would later be my brother's father,laughed on the porch with his sister..they laughed really hard when i didn't cry like a normal kid,but instead bit the dog's ear as it was biting my ankle,then i put my fingers in it's eyes and tried to pull them out..i never forgot that,it was at that point that i stopped trusting ANYONE fully,not even my mom..
My sister was molested by one of my grandmother's "friends" when she was a kid,ever since it's like she's had low self esteem so she tends to be attracted to abusers,and losers. After learning about it,I still hate my grandmother till this day for that(among other things),and I was a baby when it happened. I stopped my sis from getting raped twice when we were kids,because we started staying with each other when she was about 10,and i was 4,it was common knowledge around the neighborhood,that we were alone in the house,so theoretically,anyone could do anything...
The first guy,knocked and tried to make up an excuse for her to open the door,when she wouldn't..he busted in,he threw her on the couch,and tried to rip her shirt off,i ran to the kitchen and grabbed a freezer knife,the biggest i could find,and quickly climbed on his back,and pressed it to his adam's apple,and yelled in his ear"GET THE f@CK OFF MY SISTER OR YOU DIE TODAY!!",he put his hands in the air,and I took the knife away..i told him to leave,or that i would drive it through his guts,and he did..i was 4 at the time...
The second guy was the son of a teacher at the school I attended,he didn't know us..but found out where we lived from some guys in the neighborhood,he was obsessed with her,and had been calling and threatening to "come over",my sis would tell him that my mom was on her way home,and he'd buy it, till one day,he actually did come over,saying"I know she ain't coming,____ told me what time she get's off work" he damn near knocked the door off it's hinges getting in,then he tackled her,and tried to start ripping her clothes off..I flew into a rage,I was punching him in the head and back,but he was so much bigger than me,it had no effect on him. So i stopped,walked to my moms room,went to the bottom of her closet,and brought out the .38 my aunt had given her for protection,I ran back to the living room,where he had her on the couch with his head in her shirt,i put the barrel in his ear and cocked the hammer back,I calmly said"I told you to the get the f@ck off my sister..didn't i?...but you couldn't hear me..know i'm gonna help you with your hearing by giving you an extra hole in your head!" He started crying and saying some kind of prayer and trembling..I laughed,and said "Oh..you want God to help you now?..what about the f@ck? you sure you don't want to finish?,so i can send you to meet him in person?" He pleaded with me not to shoot,and I told him that I wouldn't as long as he got himself up,and out of my house,and out of my neighborhood..NEVER to return..I think i was about 10 at that point.
That day i told my sister that I,her little brother,would never let anyone harm her ever again..that even if they killed me in the process of stopping them,i'd take them with me as my final gift to her. After that all happened,I started lifting weights,and practicing different types of Martial Arts,I taught myself some Dim Mak,as well as the powerful,yet swift strikes from Thai Boxing,I started training with different type of weapons,even making my own from scratch form the illustrations in the books i read,I learned to make booby traps,and I placed them under windows around the house,then camoflaged them. I started conditioning myself by punching and kicking trees to toughen the skin on my hands and shins,i'd sometimes sit in ice cold water in the tub to learn how to regulate my body temp in case i needed to wait for someone in the elements,i gave myself pnuemonia twice because of it.
I only stopped all of that when i became a dub,and started believing in what they were selling..but it wasn't to last,they got a kick out of trying to push me,then reprimand me with their bullshit..i'm gonna stop right there,cause if i start thinking about that again,it won't be a good day tomorrow..

Yeah,what your sis was exhibiting is called the "MacDonald Triad",i had the same thing also,except for starting the fires,i used to catch frogs and pull their insides out of their mouths with needle nosed pliers at one point. But somehow I managed to stop myself,and channel all of that rage,and hatred into what i think is now a dual personality,which makes it manageable without the need for meds.
About the only thing I give the dubs credit for now,is giving me a conscience..sorry to hear about your sis though,from the sounds of it,i was exactly like her as a kid,if i hadn't caught myself...i'd probably be dead,or on death row myself. These days,after what transpired between me and my mom..she understands me now more than she ever did..so when i'm around her,she tries not to stress me too much.

@ Tatiana
Before my mom became a dub,she too was like your mom Tatiana..the extention cord was her favorite weapon to use. After awhile,she saw that no matter what she did to me,it didn't have the effect she thought it'd have,and only made me worse..I think it was that violence that fueled my Sociopathy.
There came a point where I lost control one time after she slapped me in the face..something she had never done before,and i sorta snapped..I think I was about 15 or 16 at the time,so we both were dubs at that point..I blacked out,and when i came to,I was holding her against the wall by the throat almost completely off of her feet,my hand was closed around her throat and i kept squeezing until I realized that I was actually killing her,at which point i let her down..we've never spoken about that day again afterwards.
When I was a kid,she had a CT done to check for abnormalities because I wasn't the typical kid..to tell the truth,I was never diagnosed,but I was probably a psychopath,I had been recently studying up on it,and I met most of the criteria necessary at that time. These days,I keep my composure most of the time..but just sometimes when the right combination of things happen..I lose myself. I hate when people abuse children,or defenseless people,or hurt my loved ones especially..those are things that are consistently a "trigger" for me,after which my mind shifts gears,and I become unpredictable.
When people want to be around me,I always let them know beforehand there are things that i don't like..And i ask them to please avoid doing them in my presence..As odd as it may sound,one of those things is..I don't like to be touched without warning..especially if i'm not looking directly at the person who's trying to touch me. I'm usually very jovial,and easy to get along with,but when things go bad,they REALLY go bad. I've told every girl i've ever dated to NEVER under any circumstance, slap me in the face..ever,she can yell and scream at me all day if she wants..just don't strike me in the face,i never tell them the reason,i just tell them "don't" when they ask why.
