Mum Loved that one too. Another great series is the Chet & Bernie mysteries by Spencer Quinn, also narrated by Chet the Dog..really good stories and Chet is a hoot. BizzyBee, that series was addictive and best read in order also, especially the last few since the storyline overlapped. I love good detective mysteries that aren't full of blood and gore and females in peril.

Shark Navigator Lift-away vs Dyson
by Bonnie_Clyde ini already have a dyson, but we have three floors in our house, and i don't like carrying it up and down stairs...it's so heavy (bad back).
just saw a sale at costco for the shark for $119...a lot cheaper than dyson.
anybody have an opinion if you think it's worth it as a second vacuum..

You are welcome. Hope you like it. People might think it is trivial to discuss sweepers, but if you use them a lot and have a multi level home with carpeted stairs, you appreciate a good light weight sweeper!

I have the Shark Lift Away, have had it almost a year, and it is the best vacuum I have ever had! So awesome I got one for my daughter. I have flights of stairs to sweep and it is so lightweight, it is unbelievely easy to use. I have 4 cats in my house so I sweep most everyday, you wouldn't believe how much it picks up. I love it and would recommend it. I have used many, many brands of sweepers (I am a pet/house sitter and often use clients sweepers). I dont care for Dyson, they are crazy to figure out the attachments and are so heavy. I have found the most expensive sweepers are the least user friendly. Hope this helps.

The 3 Pines mystery series by Louise Penny, featuring Chief Inspector Gamache, taking place in Quebec. There are 9 of them, her 10th coming out later this month. Start with "Still Life", but warning, don't be hungry when you read these, the food descriptions are mouth watering.

I think he has just come from a Kingdom Hall mind cleansing. Either that, or he has an extremely succinct way of putting things.

cha ching From what I have read on other recent threads, your own choice of "worldly" music at a wedding is still a NO NO. I remember hating the goofy song I walked down the aisle to.

OMG!!!! This is friggin unbelievable. Some of the newer ones in may not understand why some of us "oldies" find this so out of the norm for what is allowed at a KH. It's not that we are "just hatin'", we are in total disbelief that this would be allowed. We, who were around in the 1960's and 70's, who grew up with such strict rules, and all the whooping and hollering by the females at the males dancing, man, that would have been cause for DFing! I think they are so desparate now to attract and keep any younger ones that they are allowing so much more than ever before. I know if my elder dad and uncles and the long gone old time elders from my hall back then would see this, they would be shaking their heads and rolling over in their graves! I do think it is really funny though, Witnesses always look so stiff when they are trying to have normal fun

Not on JW.org : Question for Jehovah's Witnesses elders: If pants have Pagan origins, is DENIM demonized ?
by Balaamsass2 ina yound sister was severely counciled by the elders for wearing a denim "jean skirt" to the hall last year.
she left with tears in her eyes and never returned.. for the last 50 years denim jeans have been banned at the brooklyn bethel breakfast table.. i understand denim jeans are banned even by tourists visiting beth ell.
billy explained the pants situation in past posts.. so my questions are: what other instances are there of denim bans by watchtower ?

Man, when I read stuff like this, all I can do is shake my head and wonder how I ever put up with this crapola. Soooooooooooooo happy I am free. Wish I was brave enough to ask my family who are still in what they think when they are told stuff like this, but dont want to open a can of worms as long as they are still speaking to me.
