  I just checked the edit revision page and see that issue is a hot item since September 6, with some dozen or so attempts to add the change but rejected by some editor since "something I heard at breakfast" isn't a good source.

  so both of my kids got a job at tim horton's,,and when i go to pick them up from work i see service car groups there taking a break on a regular basis,,,anyway yesterday when my daughter got home she told me the the most rude people she had to deal with the the car group,and they left a big mess at their table,,what makes it worse is the one girl used to be friends with my daughter when we still went to the hall,,so she was a little upset,,,my question is how can you be out in service and act one way and then while taking a service break be so rude to the worker's,,.

  the facts are not funny and i apologize in advance to those who make take offense.

  sometimes, however, an illustration of certain facts has the effect of slapping the appropriate people in the face in order to wake them up.

  so, i'm attending a funeral for someone that was in the local congregation today.. i told my mom what i planned on wearing- a cute, dark grey blouse and some nicely tailored black pants.

  she just about lost it.. mom- "you can't wear pants, it's at the kingdom hall!!!".

  mom- "well, i guess you could, but you would feel so awkward and uncomfortable.

  His biggest writing project may have been the lead writer of "Aid to Bible Understanding". I have the 1971 edition, a huge (nearly 1700 pages) reference encyclopedia. It's successor is "Insight On The Scriptures" (1988), in 2 volumes.

  Fourteen, fifteen? Still too young. A far cry from the two WT bragging articles where six-year-olds were dunked.

  what's going on with these tv politics?

  directv has started to posted some news on their channels that viacom is asking their customers to pay more for their channels.

  they own mostly all the major networks like mtv, bet, tvland, nick, etc.

  We've already been out of DirecTV's MEtv channel (49) for some 2 months. That's the channel that shows The Honeymooners, The Twilight Zone, Bob Newhart, Naked City, Columbo, Phil Silvers. It also shows others that I don't watch.

  A notice on the screen says:

  "NO NEED TO CALL US. Service will be restored as soon as technical difficulties are resolved. Please check this channel periodically for status. SORRY FOR THE INTERRUPTION."

  "technical difficulties"? Yeah -- right. My son is on Camden's local cable provider and has had no interruption. My golfing buddy is on DISH -- no problem there.

  A petition that really works! Change the law to bring the WTS to its knees!

  by Diest in

  i know that most people on here dislike the idea of a petition, but i think i finally realized a petition that could really work.

  in the candice conti case she was allowed to start a civil lawsuit that was way past the statute of limitations.

  because california has changed the their civil statute of limitations in sexual abuse cases.. so how do petitions come in?

  I don't pretend expertise on "ex-post facto". However, Wiki does explain it somewhat: " Unfortunately, the issue is not so simple. With one ruling in 1798, the Supreme Court succeeded in muddling the issue of ex post facto laws by holding that the prohibition of retroactive laws applies only to criminal, not civil, laws."

  And, as I understand it, the Conti case is a Civil, not criminal case.

  William Osbeck-The CO that helped me get out of the borg.

  after reading cruzenheart's post on the letter about her father, and the treatment he received from the co, william osbeck, and the elders of his congregation, it brought back my own memories of this particular co and his treatment of people.

  it was 1995 and one of the hardest years of my life.

  in february of that year, i learned i was pregnant with our fifth child.
