  American accents, Bette Midler, Clinton, Rick Fearon, Strathclyde, Morningside

  i used to enjoy being able to distinguish different local accents, but for some reason i've got worse at it.

  i was thinking about this today when i was listening to bette midler on the scottish radio.

  i thought to myself i quite liked her accent and also that it reminded me of someone else.

  I don't have an accent . I'm from California. ;-)

  But if I am around people from other places, or travel; I pick up their accent . That can be awkward and funny.

  Kind of also saying, it can be hard to tell were people originate.

  I love asking people were they are from when I hear something out of my ordinary.

  A few days ago, I asked a Lady were she was from , she had me guess and I got it . She was from the Ukraine. I also met a unique couple ( by asking the same question) from Slovenia and got an interesting lesson on WW1.

  I see that the Watchtower and AWAKE! are going to be a combined offer for March and April.

  I wonder if is this is to give the publishers a feeling of normalcy.

  35 Years Ago Today - John Lennon - Peace Advocate was Murdered

  by flipper in

  in this age of violence with the san bernardino and france massacres sometimes it's good to reflect on the wise words of the peace advocates among us who proposed a better solution in bringing a more civil society to our universe.

  john lennon, martin luther king jr. - people who stood up for equal rights and world peace and denounced violence and war - no matter how that violence occurs.

  please feel free to comment on stories of john lennon on this thread and feel free to post any you tubes of his music that you may have enjoyed through the years.

  I was at a Stevie Wonder concert that night. He took a break and came out crying , told the crowd that John Lennon was dead. The man sitting in front of me said "there is no god" and starting getting very angry.

  Stevie asked for calm . Carlos Santana and Bob Marley [ minus his dred locks, later we found out he had cancer] came out for the last song. They sang Master Blaster.

  What a sad night .

  He had a tender heart that came out in his lyrics.

  Ray Franz was an Idiot

  by vinman in

  ray franz who gave us insight into the gb due to a crisis of conscience was an absolute moron, with absolutely no critical thinking skills whatsoever like all of us have.

  i mean, to have a conscience based on some magic man in the sky.. how stupid can you be?

  in search of christian freedom?

  so, here i am again....asking more questions to help me understand my wife.

  she was brought up in the cult in the 70's and 80's.

  so i can only imagine what kind of indoctrination she deals with.

  Are You Raising An Introvert?

  by darth frosty in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  its not easy being an introvert in an extrovert worldespecially when youre a kid.

  it is even more difficult if none of the adults in the kids life recognize that the child is an introvert.

  this doesnt happen only when the childs parents are extroverts, but also with introverted parents who have never understood their own introverted nature.. .

  I was raised around the time your wife was.

  I never had that fear. I still wont watch demo movies. Cant seem to get rid of that old fear.

  Funny, my 6th grade teacher had a real skeleton hung in the middle of our class room. we could dress him , even make a fake joint for him. lol.

  Studied anatomy.

  Also living in a surfing area, that is a common theme in hoodies and such.

  A lot of 'Day of The Dead' crafts from Mexico here too. I like their tradition. It looks at death in a different manner.

  But , when my mom would see my stuff or my kids. It did really upset and confused her.

  She has lost many family members and it reminds her of death and I think mostly loss of loved ones.

  Now I have put some of my art work away, as it reminds me of loss too.

  I would love a skeleton hanging around to help relearn some things I have forgotten. Our structure is fascinating

  back in the day, when the co came to the congregation, it was quite stressful for the elders and often, the rank and file.

  is it as big a deal as it used to be?.
