  not sure if this has been posted before, but it made me laugh .

  these are from a book called disorder in the american courts and are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now published by court reporters that had the torment of staying calm while these exchanges were actually taking place.. .

  q: what is your date of birth?.

  LMAO!

  I loved the barbs between the medical person and the *cough* lawyer.

  Thanks Angharad, needed a laugh.

  Now I wonder how any of those court reporters can sit so still and not change their facial expressions when they hear such silliness. I would at least roll my eyes.

  the wind is really picking up and the town is clearing as everyone is getting sent home from work.. we're expecting 100mph gusts here, on the west coast of scotland.. i'm gonna go home and get cosy, with a roaring coal fire.

  it's just as well our houses are built for severe weather!.

  I took the "1914 Generation" prophecy seriously. Did you?

  by nicolaou in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was born in 1964, a convenient 50 years after 1914. even in my early teens i was doing the sums.

  i had a worse case scenario figured out - if the 1914 generation could apply to babies and even if they lived to be a 120, i would still only be about 70 years old after they'd all died!

  i figured that i was part of the first wave of 'jehovah's people' that really would live to see the new order - guaranteed!!

  I remember so many bible studies I would teach the whole 607-1914 thing. (remember that chapter in the old Truth? book?!) When I learned 607-1914 was not based on scientific/archeology fact but WT BS, that was when the house of cards fell hard for me.

  But I've picked myself up and dusted myself off and learned critical thinking. And boy am I free!

  Welcome Freedom Frog.

  Yes, you'll slow down in a couple of years. At first you feel like you need to prove everything. Then you feel empty because you used to be going 90 miles an hour (meetings, meetings, meetings, service, meetings, etc). But one day, you will really feel free when you don't have to prove anything and just enjoy life.
