Why I May Vote for Kerry

by roybatty in

i'm a registered republican but i have to admit that after looking at john kerry's web site, i may have to sway my vote his way.

what caught my eye is kerry's attention toward jobs leaving for overseas countries and how the government can at least stop encouraging (and rewarding)large corporations from doing this.

at bush's site, i don't see anything about this huge problem facing america.

...and, as if you didn't need another reason to vote for Kerry - go see "Fahrenheit 9/11"

Elder tells me that Governing Body moved to Walkill to escape terrorism

by truthseeker in

i was talking to an elder the other day, and he told me that the governing body had all moved to walkill to because jehovah wouldn't let them be destroyed.. but, i thought, weren't some of the gb in walkill anyway?

and if this is the case, why would they build that massive residential complex in the dumbo area?

are bethelites expendable if a terrorist attack did happen?.

Ummm... what is DUMBO?

It's an acronym that stands for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass.

Do you welcome change?

do you welcome change or do you dread it?

do your fears of change ever hinder you for pursuing things that could better your life?.

the thought of big changes always scares me and i see myself avoiding things that would be a change even if it is possible that it will make my life better.

Michael3000

Yes. Quarters, dimes & nickels - no pennies, please.

you can include your city if you feel comfortable enough.

i will start this off by saying that i live in knoxville tennessee, originally from dayton ohio.

cocktails/mixing drinks

by baysixforme in

i went to a bbq the other night and had a couple of glasses of white wine before being offered a white rum with black pepper.

i knocked back two of those...not particularly large ones either and that was it...i was somewhere else!.

the good part about it was that i was with some good friends who were able to take care of me....the bad part was that i could hardly remember anything the next day.

I can't find any specific recipes for Haitian rum & pepper. I would think that the capsaicin (the stuff that makes all hot peppers hot) would have the same effect as when you eat it in food - it makes your blood vessels expand, and the "heat" is dissipated when you sweat. Was it a bad feeling?
