  Roommates, Zombies and Napoleon Brandy

  2. friends

  the setting: i live in a big house as a renter of one bedroom.

  there are four other bedrooms and roommates.one of the more recent move-ins is robert.

  robert drives a very large blue truck with a 50mm machine gun mount on the hood, stenciled lettering: zombie assault vehicle, and --well...i've come to think of him as robert the zombie killer.then, there's a young fellow with wild, long, bizarre hair, and another guy with dozens of tats... fun and roommate games___ i received the text about an hour after i arrived back at the house.

  Is this the reason you like to hang out at Starbucks instead of at the house? Funny story though, had me laughing out loud!

  it's a deja vu from matthew..."for nation shall rise against nation.....".

  it seem that periods of instability occur around the world periodically.

  since the arab spring to brexit and trumpism people want change.

  Sending in the Guardia civil to beat up unarmed civilians was a disgrace. How does Madrid expect people to agree with the Spanish National laws and constitution when these support such abuse of human rights? Rajoy is showing his true fascist color!

  Have you seen Eraserhead (1977)? ... spoilers!

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  i had heard a bit about it, most of it positive.

  i typed 'eraserhead review' into youtube and quite a few videos came up that presumably attempted to explain the film.. i couldn't be arsed watching a youtube vid with some artsy-fartsy person droning on about eraserhead and lynch so i thought i'd start an op about it instead.. i bought the dvd a few days ago.

  i gotta say, it's quite a strange film.

  Eeeegads!

  I saw that in college, a few years after it came out.

  It was troubling, haunting and gave me bad dreams.

  i'm inactive here to the local jw's as i have faded.

  i've been slandered and all that, shunned by some but not all, but the elders basically leave me alone.

  i still run into to people all over though.

  Foundations giving thousands of dollars to the WT. Documents from CitizenAudit.org

  there are a ton of foundations, corporations and groups giving money, thousands of dollars in contributions, to the wt according to citizenaudit.org documents.. here's one example from the edwin j. and patti curtze foundation:.

  http://pdfs.citizenaudit.org/2016_10_pf/26-1439455_990pf_201512.pdf.

  in this instance they get dividends from investments and disburse thousands to the wt.. https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/organizations/261439455.

  The Edwin J's yearly reported revenues don't seem to match their income. They employ 3 people and only report less than $17,000 yearly. Yet their dividends amount to quite a lot in comparison according to the other websites reporting on their 990 disclosures.

  https://www.manta.com/c/mtg67fh/edwin-j-patti-curtze-foundation

  It was established in 2010 and incorporated in PA.

  Edwin J & Patti Curtze Foundation

  Phone: (814) 838-3232

  • Name: Edwin J Curtze
    Job Title: Principal

  There's sompin' fishy going on in Erie, Pennsylvania!

  One foundation does not a pattern make but the fact that CitizenAudit reports many such arrangements seems to hing at the WT establishing foundations which invest funds then return dividends under names other than the usual public WT corporations.

  The total extent of these foundations that are set up to get dividend income then turn over proceeds to the WT likely is an important source of revenue for the WT. Definitely much more than Sophia's ice cream money, or Granny Pioneer's $20 bill every meeting.

  I would think that tracing the source of income from these foundations and large charitable donations not by individuals so much as by foundations and other paper entities may be one way to follow the money all the way to the Boys in Pennsylvania's coffers.

  What's your opinion?

    "1914 and the anointed/overlapping generation will be huge hurdles to overcome."

    One would think so, yet the b0rg drones on.

    They have morphed before and will likely do so again.

    They come up with a new fly for the fish hook every generation.
