My first thought about that "team" is it leaves Charles looking pretty savvy.

I hope that she truly was the person that she is perceived to be, rather than the person she/they wanted us to see.
In the past, US presidents were stoic and all proper -- on the surface -- that was the person they wanted us to see. In reality, most were whoremongers, Nixon was a racist and out-cussed any "sailor". Well, what is there to say about Clinton that The Enquirer hasn't already said. The Bushes seemed to maintain the image. An insider said Barbara was a TRULY a wonderful lady. Obama cast the image (but we know he hid his smoking and possibly some other "interests".) And Trump, well I think it can be said that "What you see is what you get". (Like it or not.) Biden? Good candidate for an AARP commercial. And he does like to smell the hair of little girls. (But does he really know what he's doing?)
RIP Queen Elizabeth -- Charles will never fill those shoes.

faithful and discreet slave appointed in 1919?
by enoughisenough in12 when did jesus appoint the faithful slave over his domestics?
to answer that, we need to go back to 1914​—the beginning of the harvest season.
as we learned earlier, at that time many groups claimed to be christian.

This is NOT easy reading. I wonder if it was compiled to be used primarily by lawyers because it damn sure isn't designed for the average elder's use.

A Prayer for the Stressed
by BoogerMan ina prayer for the stressed .
grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, the courage to change the things i cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those i had to kill today because they got on my nerves.. and also, help me to be careful of the toes i step on today, as they may be connected to the feet i may have to kiss tomorrow.. help me always to give 100% at work... 12% on monday, 23% on tuesday, 40% on wednesday, 20% on thursday and 5% on friday.
and help me to remember...... when i'm having a bad day and it seems that people are trying to wind me up, it takes 42 muscles to frown, 28 to smile, and only 4 to extend my arm and smack someone in the mouth!.

He’s the biggest advert for Watchtower’s stereotype of an immoral apostate they have ever had. They must be loving it. ~ SFB
(I really promised myself to skip over this topic, but there seems to be one meaningful post out 100 that draws me back.)
Slim, that has to one of the best posts of the 5000 on this topic. That really about sums it up!
I'm sure there have been some laughs had over glasses of scotch on the subject of LE.

Yes, wouldn't it be great if we had the likes of Ronald Reagan and Gorbachev today. I'm not sure there are men of that caliber today in politics. In fact, pretty damn sure there are not!
Then again, Jane Wyman might disagree with me.

10 years on and I’m still indoctrinated
by joe134cd inthis experience highlights the level of my indoctrination, after 10 years of been a pomo.
a few months back my gf was hinting to me about what we could do for my birthday.
to be honest i just had no idea, that i even had a birthday.

IMO, we have gotten too involved with birthdays since becoming POMO. While still PIMI with small kids (and not so small) we recognized their birthdays and did something special. We just didn't have the blow out parties, etc. Now though it seems we must do something "significant". We are all fortunate in our financial/material circumstances. For my wife & I, I think I can truly say there is nothing we desire (reasonable things that can be purchased) that we haven't already gone out and purchased. It's the same for all of our children and their families. So we struggle to find something "special" every birthday. Special and still equitable (can't favor one over the other). Personally, I'd rather go "all out" on those significant ones. THREE -0 FOUR-0 etc
ASFA Christmas, I still don't want any part of it. It's just blatant commercialization. Getting together since most everyone has the day off is great, but no one needs to piss away all that money for shit than no one wants.
As a JW kid, I always had gifts on or near by birthday. Just not "birthday presents". And I do not feel like I missed out on Christmas celebrations or other holidays. Especially since I was taught WHY they were "wrong". Of course I don't have any of those issues now, but the only thing important to me about holidays are 3- or 4-day weekends.

Useless Majors
by Sea Breeze ini was passing through a very liberal college town recently during rush hour.
so, i decided to stop for some refreshment at a fine-looking establishment and wait for traffic to die down.
a young waitress waited on me who probably could have been stevie nicks twin when she was young.

She's gonna be limited to an academic career probably, so I would hope she's really passionate about the subject in order to get a job in what must be a limited field.
That's not necessarily true. We have a JW friend with a degree in Anthropology and specifically Egyptology who landed a great position with the US Government (in an agency that she cannot name). She is in the Accounting/PR area. All they required was a 4-year degree of any kind.
