havent been on here for some time now.
a long time ago i posted a thread called "trying to be like valis" in which i posted the following picture.. .
it was a simple band that did not go the whole way around the arm and it has a phoenix in flight in the center of it.
Hey stranger! Long time no see!
I like the ink - very personal. I dunno if I will ever get anything done - I think tats are stupid if they don't have some kind of meaning behind them and frankly I have never come up with anything that represents who I am well enough to get it branded into my body.
Phoenix is very cool tho.
Take care!
ladies,.
in preperation for a class i'll be taking starting next month entitled "history of love, sex and marriage" i would like to probe your heart's desire to find out the 5 biggest turn on's and 5 biggest turn off's you find in men.
and well, hell, i also would just like to add to my general knowledge.
Oh well, what ever tickles your fancy.
Am I supposed to read that as a double-entendre?

Turn On's
Turn Off -
ok just to cover my bum, i am not against marriage per-say.
so all you happily married folk leave me alone.
she and i were both quite fed up with the dub mentality.
Heh heh - forgot I posted that story here. I guess I should be careful which JW friends I bitch about and then invite them to the site where I bitched about them. (heh heh).
I am SO glad he is out of your life. Honestly I didn't care if you were a JW as long as you got rid of him. Ok that's probably not totally true, it's just a bonus and makes me glad you're making strides to free yourself of the JW mind games too.
Yay! I got two friends back! First 'neen, now you! The rest of them can piss off anyway - HAHA! (I'll have to edit this later when I invite them to this website)
Hopefully this little story stands as a hope for anyone who is trying to get a friend, relative, mate out of the Borg - sometimes it does all work out in the end.

(Thank god you can now call my actions as "blunt honesty", cuz it could have been read "total bitch" too! lol)
my wife and i went out to a mexican restaurant the other night... and the place was packed...with tons of people waiting, which was a little unusual.
as we're waiting we notice everyone seems overdressed... then we saw them...the name tags...
it was the dist.
I was SOO HAPPY to be able to stand tall with my family and watch all the PW's little Dub "heads" with their bitchy wives pushing them around...even saw the token JW kidd gettin the crap beat out of him...
How funny would it be if you wrote a letter for them to read at the convention. All positive and happy go-lucky about how great the witness they were giving was - but really just slamming them.
Dear Local Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses -
I was so please to be able to share my latest resturant experience with some of your congregation. It truly was an experience! It's a refreshing change of pace to see such subservient wives. I think far too many women in our society feel like they are "equal" to men. I'm glad you've got the right attitude among your followers.
I also find it heartwarming that you do not take a rigid stance against alcohol since I saw many of your members become intoxicated. You guys sure know how to party! (Not like those lame Baptists!) I think it's nice that you can all cut loose like that and have some fun.
Also, I noted how you really followed the the scripture "Spare the rod and spoil the child". (It's always been my personal favorite) In fact I saw one father really get into the spirt of corporal punishment. It makes my heart glad to know there are still some decent families that realize a good beating can really quell the spirit of an otherwise well-adjusted child.
I really feel like I could get behind your church. I would welcome Jehovah's Witnesses into my home anytime! Keep up the good fight!
Respectfully,
Scotty McSorley
i thought this would be kind of fun to do is list some of the offenses that i have committed according to witness beliefs.
i thought it might be mildly amusing considering the lack of emphasis that any of these things are wrong according to the majority of the population.
i'll limit myself to ten.
[Hijack] - Pressy dah-ling, LOVE the new Avatar! [/Hijack]
She is a fun chick - I totally vouch for that one.
And the family - I could vouch for that one too... Your dad is an elder? When did that happen?

Hmm...so are we going to be doing a Ouija and Tarrot reading cocktail hour anytime soon - of course catered by scantily clad worldy boys, and while smoking from a Hokah and wearing purple?
I feel so Babylonian.

Yeah I was actually present for 10 and 6, and totally hear ya on #3. Could never see myself as a plumbers wife - not that there's anything wrong with that, but I could read past an 8th grade level - something I don't think most of the boys in our hall could.
haunted places, haunted houses, haunted people, have you had a true encounter with the world beyond?
i only read about it, i never experienced any of it.
anyone want to share their experiences, outside of halloween of course.
Shortly after they left I had my current hubby over one evening when we first started dating and his eyes became very big and was speechless. I said "You see him don't you?" He said yes. I asked what he looked like. He described the same man everyone else had seen.I can tell ya right now.....I woulda shit my pants.....then fainted. No description.....no discussion.....just plain ass faint.Gumbrowntrousers
LOL - I have missed posting here just because I miss Gumby. Anyway - Recently I have been interested in Ouija boards and having some kind of paranormal experience. It's always interested me. But I am one of those people who have never seen anything happen, and none of my close friends have ever seen anything. I forget who said it before, but about the Ghost tours, yes - it's all about the hype. You can scare yourself into anything. MTV used to have a show called FEAR. They would hype these 18-23 year olds up with stories and then give them video cameras and certain tasks they'd have to perform. Like standing alone in the dark in a cell at an old psych ward. Nothing ever really happened, but the slightest noise, bump or wind would send these kids screaming for the hills. It was a VERY interesting study in how the mind works. I also find it interesting that when people re-tell their stories for the benifit of others, "Well it happend to my uncle (or whatever) and he's a very resonable man who's a skeptic, so I believe his story." No comment really for it. I just find it interesting. That would be like me saying, "Well my uncle voted for George Bush. He's been a democrat his whole life, so there must be some substance to his reasoning" That being said, I don't think rational explinations work in EVERY single case. Gumby gave the story of the girl who found the picture of the former owner. Saying simply, "Well she could have picked anyone and just lucked out." doesn't cut it for me. She didn't pick just anyone. She picked the right one. I don't know how many pictures they showed her as I didn't see the piece but the more pictures the less the odds she just happened to pick the right one. I don't know if it's ghosts, lost spirts, demons, electromagnetic fields, an impression of recorded energy on a specific spot, subsonic noises, a mind that wants to believe, group hysteria, or the power of suggestion. For me it could be any of the above or combinations of things. It's still interesting to me regardless and I am not quick to poo-poo anything. In thinking about Ouija boards as I was pondering it my first thought was, what if you switched the board up on people...do the letters have to be in A through Z order in order to get the best results? I thought of a blindfold too - or what about the fact that people weren't always literate - how do their ghosts read and spell - can crappy spellers be tripped up in a Quija setting, how about crappy spelling ghosts? What about the ghosts of Chinese people - how do they make it work. Just random thoughts. I would like to believe, I would like to disprove - but for the most part I am happy with it just being what it is. Interesting stories the evoke interesting questions and debate.
this is an email my sister receieved (i know im bad but she just left it running here how can you expect me not to) talking about the "dating scene" of jw youth, specifically girls.
we all know these guys... you'd think they'd change up their routine!
theocratic lookout .
The Narco's- Narcoleptics I mean- The well dressed brother who sits like 3 or four rows behind or in front of you, who removes his suit jacket before the session starts, places it in the seat in front of him, grabs his bible and places it on his right knee than proceeds to SLEEP through the WHOLE session!
Sounds like the perfect guy to me...as long as I can prop myself up against him so I can catch a little shut eye too.
I do remember the meat market days. I distinctly remember going in the bathroom watching the girls my age putting on make-up and getting all dolled up and leaning over to my other nerd girl friend saying - "Look war paint!"
Oh yes - many a sisterly friendship was ruined when a hot chunk of 'hova meat came to the hall. OH THE CAT FIGHTS! Over a guy they got to know for five minutes while standing next to the dunk tank.
I was never cool enough to get in on that action, plus a little too sarcastic, and not nearly enough spiritual goals. When prospective suitors would ask what I was going to do after school I would say, "Go to college". Heh heh. I was a Pootiemite maiden - screw the Shulamite crap.
