  bad songs

  .

  i was reading a post that reminded me of the songs that were popular but was wrong to listen to for various reasons.. we all remember puff the magic dragon being about drugs, which i hear was just a rumour.. another i remember was let it be by the beatles, which was " catholic based about mary the mother of jesus" when apparently it was written about paul mccartney's own mother.

  shows what they know.. which songs do you remember that were "bad" that we were not supposed to listen to?

  I was already out when these two songs were popular, but I knew at the time they would have been taboo, so I took great delight in them:

  I Don't Wanna Be a Witness by Cindi Lauper :-) That song was my anthem when I quit the dubs.

  and how about

  I Touch Myself--one of my favorite nasty songs.

  When I was young, I would stop singing along to Simon and Garfunkle's Cecelia when it got to the part "when I come back to bed someone's taken my place." I just couldn't bring myself to say those adulterous words. :-)

  Ah, so much has changed!

  Do You Think The Society Will Ever Go Broke?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if the local congregations have no money to pay their own bills and the numbers of witnesses continue to drop off, how will the society last?

  we've heard about down sizing and layoffs.

  we've seen congregations merge because the bills aren't getting paid.

  If someone has already posted this information, I apologize. I don't read most of the threads--just pop in once in a while to take a quick look.

  My nephew is a Bethel boy, and every once in a while I get a bit of news through my parents (my nephew's father--my brother--hasn't talked to me in 12 years, so I don't know my nephew at all). Anyway, he was home visiting a couple of weeks ago and he told my parents that the society is getting new presses and is moving everything upstate. He said that the guys who ran the old presses will be "out of a job." I couldn't get any more information, because my parents told me this after he went back home.

  Has anyone heard anything about this?

  As an aside, my mom asked my nephew what the society would do with all that Brooklyn property is the move the printing business upstate. She told him that all that property had to be worth millions and millions of dollars. I don't think he had a reply for that. :-)

  my surgery (hysterectomy) is scheduled for this friday and i'm getting really nervous.........nervous that the cancer may have spread, nervous about the pain, nervous about what i'm going to go through mentally, physically and emotionally afterwards (i guess i'll be going through the change of life real quick).

  i've done pretty good so far: am trying to keep positive, eating right, exercising (i've lost 15 lbs!

  ), meditating, and i'm going on tuesday to someone who does reiki (i think that's how you spell it).

  Hi Mary.

  I had a hysterectomy in June and I feel fabulous. Surgery is amazing these days; I had very little pain (took pain meds less than a week), only stayed overnight, and started walking again in a week. I healed very quickly and am very glad I had the surgery. I just turned 48.

  Good look. Attitude is everything; stay positive.

  My experience from living in NY and visiting the city many times on busines is that dress doesn't really matter. Only the most posh restaurants require that you dress up. You can wear jeans and a t-shirt just about everywhere. I don't think Bill or anyone else will want to go to an expensive restaurant after the cost of flying to and staying in the city, so you're safe. :-)

  Have fun. My hubby will be there to represent both of us.

  Simon, if you could make the files available somewhere where we can FTP them, it would be a great help. I've tried to show the streaming video files to several people, including my parents, but using a dial-up connection, the feed freezes and it's hard to follow. (At home I have cable modem, so don't have that problem.) If I could download the files to my laptop, I could carry it around and show it to the people who'd like to view it and don't have computers or decent connections.

  Thanks so much!

  We have AT&T cable modem here in Colorado--for about $55 a month. We haven't had any problems at all. We have a home network (CAT5) and have a router set up as a firewall. All our household computers (five of them!) have 24x7 access. It's incredibly fast and has been very dependable. I work at home 75% of the time and count on having dependable access; I've been very happy with it. We have two phone lines and haven't had to tie any of them up with computers. Thank goodness, because Alan keeps one line occupied with his phone calls most of the time. LOL The kids and I use the other line. :-)
