As many of you know, my wife had a stroke back in September. I was so happy that over 80 people sent us public and private e-mails. Some sent flowers and one person sent a gift.
It meant so much to me and my wife to have this kind of support. Once my wife was back home, I got all of your responses printed out, It brought a tear to her eyes when she read it in print.
Well, Jan is mostly all recovered. Her mind is very good. The only residual is that she is very weak. Even though she walks every day, her strength has not returned yet.
Sometimes, she gets emotional over this lack of progress in her life. I try to stay calm, but it is not easy for either one of us.
I rarely, if ever, write about my personal life, but I feel comfortable doing so here.
Thank you ahead of time for listening.

How well did you know your bible?
by JH inwere you able to name all 66 books of the bible by heart and in order?
some were able to do that, but what did that prove?.
there were always 6 or 7 books that i was never able to find, so i had to go into the index at the beginning and check the page.

Hey,
I knew the Bible from Generations to Revolutions.
I also knew that that the Bible Talked about baseball. In Geneses 1:1, it says, "In the big inning." -

Sandy,
I just want to tell you that I like you a whole lot more than I like her. You are a keeper, and she is not, believe me.
Also, I am glad you could get this off your chest, because anytime you want to get something off your chest (especially your blouse), you can come to my house, only, of course, if my wife is not home.
I hope I cheered you up. -

Jehovah's Witnesses Feel Superior To Others. What About EX-JW's???
by minimus ineveryone knows the smugness that jw's have.
"everyone is going to die except us because we only have the truth.
" do you think that ex-witnesses continue this same smugness once they get out and realize what really is the truth?

Hey JT,
When you brought up the PhD thingy, I thought you were talking about me. Then you said that the person was on the Witness of Jah tape. Whew, that aint't me.
Shutterbug,
You are a poopy head for bashing PhD's. -

What Do The English & Australians Think Of Americans On This Board???
by minimus init seems to me that this board's force comes mainly from our english and aussie friends.
i've read comments that some have gotten annoyed that the society and gb seem to only stress the "american" english in their style of writing.
i'm just curious as to what you think of your american brethren.

Well,
I want to thank Safe4kids and Stinky, for our reconciliation. You know that I love you both.
I just got off the telephone with Teejay, one of my best black friends, and he still likes me, even after what I wrote. Go figure - as they say. -

There is a song that goes like this here: When you're down and out lift up your head and shout, it's going to be a great day.
Here is what I say: When you're down and out lift out your head and shout, AWW SHIT!
My mother told me to cheer up, things could be worse. I cheered up and things got worse.
Hi Hoooo Silllver Awaaaaaaaaaaaaay -

My stupid neighbors!

he and his wife have lived in their house for 37 years.
they are avid gardeners and the landscaping around their house is gorgeous.. however, my neighbor 2 doors down (on the other side of ed) is another story.

hey Dan,
I agree that killing a dog is a good fantasy, but it could "back fire". It is still fun to think about.
I remember a quote from Puddin'Head Wilson, by Mark Twain. The guy in the story just got off the boat at a town on the Mississippi river. He was talking to some locals, and a dog was barking, which was very distracting. He said, "I wish I owned half that dog." The locals asked why and he replied, "Because I would shoot my half."
He then walked away and locals pondered this comment, and concluded that he was a Puddin' Head, since they knew that if he shot one half of the dog, the other half would die too. (They didn't seem to understand that he already knew that.) -

Dan,
Same question as Jesika. Why do you get depressed? I get pissed at things like this. Anger is a better emotion than depression. Just remember Dan, it is better to be pissed off than pissed on.
