  what is it with these people?

  i left my apartment a few minutes ago to go pick up my check, you know, on a mission.

  these two spiffy suited young pricks spot me from 200 feet away, and nearly trip over themselves running up to me.

  What happens when Mormons come upon a JW household, or vice versa? Do they have some kind of armitice treaty thing that they reference quickly so as not to waste precious time preaching to the enemy?

  One I think of quite a bit lately, in relation to the economy, is from the the original release of "Auntie Mame" (the one with Roslyn Russell).

  It's the stock market crash of 1929. The phone rings, the obscenely stereotypical Chinese butler answers the phone, and then announces to Auntie Mame: " Stock brokah wanna say herro, befoh he jump outta window!" I do in fact say that aloud to myself at least once a week on average.

  Excellent that she is getting better. Never give up. With your emotional support, and the latest in oncology, she has a great chance at beating this.

  JW's and home schooling?

  by semelcred in

  2. beliefs

  i don't wish to offend any that are teaching their kids at home, but today i was again confronted by a situation where a jw family were home schooling.

  the kids had little structure to their routine and without putting the mum down, she was no teacher in an academic sense.. the subject is close to my heart because my parents who are witnesses, took my younger brothers out of school and home tutored them.

  the were subjected to below standard education and limited in social skills, particularly as my parents are crap at these skills themselves.. i have grown to hate home schooling except in the situation of medical or logistical situations.. what are your comments good or bad and do you think the option to home school is abused by the witness community?.

  I grew up at least as socially inept as any home-school person. I went to catholic school in another town about 30 miles away from home, and had very few neighbors with kids anywhere near my age. Until my parents finally switched me into public school I only played with friends outside of school around once every 1 or 2 months on average, since it involved someone's parents driving, which none of them ever wanted to do.

  Of course, once in public school I was an absolute outcast since everyone else already had established their friendships and social standings. What fun ... not.
