  BLONDIE

  I have very extreme musical tastes, even within classical sooooo . . . here are two of my favs:

  Ma Vlast by Smetana -- This is "classical" classical, and is actually a suite of songs. The most famous (and my favorite) is Vltava (The Moldau)

  For Stefan Wolpe by Morton Feldman -- This is modern, minimalist classical. The whole album is great, but the piece For Stefan Wolpe is may favorite

  For classical music in general, KAZU Classical in California is amazing, and you can stream it online.

  alright, so what is the deal with the thousands coming to the states right at election time seeking asylum?

  i'm not up on this, usually try not to be, but how can this not be manipulative?

  it's either manipulative in the size of the group and pressure that creates, or in where it started or who started this, etc.

  By the end of this year, after the Migrant Invasion of 20,000 Future Landscapers of America never happens, I could totally see Mattis throwing in the towel, which is a shame. He seems like a really smart, focused guy.

  Keeping Track Of The Brothers During The Great Tribulation

  i couldn’t help but watch the “bunker video “again.

  i learned that once they are in the bunkers they will need to get the attendance numbers from the different groups that are in hiding during the “great tribulation.” chris and wife risked their lives going to the different groups and getting the numbers and putting them on slip of paper which he then handed to brother brown.

  of course these numbers would have to be kept track of so they could make a full report back to the headquarters.

  Imagine if they could "count their time" visiting faithful JW's in the nursing home, and could not "count their time" standing in front of a cart. That faithful elderly JW woman would be visited all day every day - OTWO

  Honestly, it's shameful that they don't allow this.

  I have no idea how unions transporting people to the polls equals voter fraud. - GT

  If you don't actually walk to your polling place, that is voter fraud, plain and simple.

  What will JJ Abrams and Disney do for Star Wars episode IX?

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  i heard that jj abrams has finished the screenplay and they'll be starting to shoot the final episode soon.. so where will the story go?.

  han solo is dead, snoke is dead, leia can only have a very limited role at best because carrie fisher unfortunately died .... plus, rey has already defeated the main villain once before, in her first lightsaber fight (in the force awakens, because 'ovaries!

  ', i guess xd).. and she saved his ass against snoke's elite guards (in the last jedi) - so it will be difficult to film any kind of dramatic tension between rey and kylo ren.. i won't be seeing this film in the cinema or buying it on dvd but i am kinda curious how things will pan out .... what do you think?.

  Family is now reaping what they sowed and they don't like it.

  i resigned from the jw's in my 20's over 30 years ago, i was immediately shunned by my entire family and it's remained that way with a few exceptions ever since.

  one of those exceptions was being contacted by a cousin a few years back and during that conversation i discovered that my mother had been and still was the prime mover in my complete and continuing shunning.

  i then used what contacts i had left to confirm it.

  I would do the exact same thing. I would tell them they need to put more trust in Jehovah and less in Satanic riches.

  i have been invited to speak at an international cultic studies association workshop this fall.

  i could use your help in focusing on my presentation subject.. these workshops are for former members of any cult or other high-control, authoritarian group, not just jehovah's witnesses.

  last year, i spoke at one of their larger conferences in europe.
