I can't believe I'm asking for advice on dating, but really need an opinion, guys especially.

I don't have trouble getting dates but I have limited time. I'm in school working towards my law degree.

Anyway, I had a date Sat night that absolutely knocked me for six....not only is he very handsome, but he's

NICE and humble. We had a good time. We talked til about 11:30 and went for coffee. Before we left, he leaned

over and kissed my cheek. Then we walked for coffee and he put his arm around me. Dropped me off at my house

and a little goodnight kiss in the car. A text saying he had a good time that night.....now I am freaking out. Haven't

heard much but a text here and there...is it too soon to freak out? What's the protocol here?

Thanks.

just got this in, don't know if it was mentioned here yet, but this illustrates how the watchtower views/responds to emergencies.

note the dig on university and "higher education" (especially sad for a poor country like haiti with poorly educated masses).. randy.

it was a terrifying moment for all!

diana netherton

what is the facebook page? I would like to weigh in.

List of Prominent JW Urban Legends...

by Tuesday in

jw
friends

hey folks,.

i'm wondering if you all could help me with my next video that i want to put up in the next couple of days (though i'm hoping for tonight), i want to come up with a list of the most prominent urban legends surrounding jws and then refute them whatever they may be.. i'm thinking there's the urban legend about the question on jeopardy that said the nwt was the most accurate would be a good one.

that one stems from an online powerpoint presentation named theological jeopardy and a book which was written comparing six different translations of the bible.

diana netherton

How about the rumor about records and if you played them backwards you got demonic messages?? I remember doing that as a kid and never heard a thing.

Also I remember a bunch of talk once that there was blood in Tootsie Rolls!

Another one was to avoid buying things at garage sales or else your house would become possessed.

Feeling Unfit, Fat and Unhealthy

by cantleave in

a semi-serious request.. i hate exercise (yes i am an indolent slob), i sit in an office or a car most of the time and eat and drink too much.

so my new year's resolution is to lose weight (about 3 stone would be good) to try and prolong my life a little since i ain't got eternity in mind anymore.

i am looking for fun ways to get fit, or an effective home based diet programme that has worked for other people.

diana netherton

Sounds like the New Year's resolutions are back!

Aussie nailed it though..calories in and calories out. I lost loads of weight around 15 years ago. It was a lifestyle change for sure. I had to get to the absolute point where I'd had enough, and unless you're there, it won't work. Most people realise it after they have a health scare, so it's better to get it now. I was a Weight Watcher's leader and I teach aerobics part time now.

Tip. Don't skip breakfast. Write everything down that you eat so you can keep track. If you'd like me to analyze it, just email me privately and I'll be happy to do it for you. Also, alcohol. Limit yourself to about 4 units a week.

Good luck!
