American Economy Going Strong ! Thank God !

Actually I did. My portfolio is up 23k last year thanks to the US economy and the stock market.
It's one thing to say your portfolio went up so much in a year, but it's another thing to prove it. For all we know, you could have lost $23k. I'm fairly sure that no one on the board is willing to offer up their financials on a public board.
BTW, did you know that some of the best performing mutual funds last year were ones that focused on China(avg. 50-60% returns)? That's where the stable growth is at right now.

Another reason to not keep all of your investments confined into one country. Which is why ~40% of my portfolio is in Euro/Pacific companies. I learned my lesson from the tech bust. Sure, it was great watching those gains multiply in the early years, but after 2000-2001, things went south pretty fast.

Standing for the flag salute is ok, but standing for the National Anthem is not. Which brings me to this -- Just back in early December, there was a volleyball match between MSU and Air Force. I took my jw wife to see it(I play with a couple of the guys from there). As the teams were doing their intros, they then went right into the "Please stand for the National Anthem." I immediately hopped up and stood and my wife got up too. Right before I stood up, another guy I play with and his girlfriend were sitting right next to us and I was thinking, "Great. My wife is gonna stay seated while everyone else is standing." But to my extreme surprise, she stood as well. I was totally shocked. Of course, if there were any other witnesses in the crowd that she knew, she probably would have stayed seated. It's funny how some jw's will bend the rules when they know no one is watching.

I really can't say more than what has already been said by everyone else on this thread. I would add that you do not "sue" them for anything. For such a petty offense, "suing" them would only serve to slightly blemish your reputation if it makes it into the media. At least, that is what I would think if I were some Joe Blow and someone sued their neighbors over such an act. "Great, more sue happy people over a 'teenage' prank." I would just let the police sort it out and have them pay their fine. Or better yet, see if they can do community service in lieu of paying a fine. But make damn sure that the local media gets wind of it! And if you're interviewed at all, be very concise about how you are an ex-jw and they were jw's.
It's not persecution once you break the law.

Cannot say oh my god
Back in 2000 when we toured bethel, we were in the lobby of one of the Brooklyn buildings waiting for the tour. As I was looking around, I caught sight of a few of my best friends while growing up in SoCal(Alpine). I froze and yelled out pretty loud, "OH....MY....GOD!" Everyone in the lobby turned and faced me including my friends. No one said anything about it, but I thought it was pretty funny considering we're not supposed to say that phrase and here I was in Jah's house blurting it out.

Movie - The Good Shepard
by pratt1 ini just saw the good shepard and i am still trying to decide if i liked the movie or not.
it basically tells the story (i am sure somewhat fictionalized) the start of cia.. matt damon is really good in it, and so is alec baldwin.. i guess the main thing that i am struggling with is that the film makes it seems that to protect a society, you have to think like the enemy, commit heinous crimes like the enemy, to defeat the enemy.. i know its probably reality, but knowing this does not make you feel very good.. .
has anyone else seen this movie.. what are your thoughts?.

It's not just the "film." If we only knew what was behind many of the events the world over, I'm sure we would hang those in charge. I always think back to Operation Northwoods and if that were played out, how would it have been spun by the government to the American people and the world? There's no telling how many other "Operation Northwoods" there have been since, and how many there are to come.
A government will lie to protect its interests and will kill to achieve its ends, plain and simple.

Now that I think of it, Dave Mustaine from Megadeth, wasn't his mom a witness?
Yep, and Dave was raised as a witness(never baptized) until he was a young teen or tween. I believe they lived in La Mesa, CA. It's wonderful knowing that the WTS probably helped fuel Dave's musical talents by letting him get his anger out. I would love to sit down with Dave sometime and interview him about his jw upbringing.
