well, it is finally time to take my bike and family and head 650 miles over to fresno, ca.... i was asked to perform the wedding ceremony for some close friend that ride.

i am not ordained, and the wedding isnt legal (pagan/biker wedding), so all in all, it should add up to a good ride and some fun.

i will be chased there by a van of my kids and wife, with them taking turns on the harley with me.. i will have pictures to post on the mmesa.net/exjw site.. .

the trial to decide whether the father can continue to allow his ill jw daughter to have blood transfusions is in progress.

four people are testifying in the father's defense.

jim penton, sam muramoto, chris christonson, and greg stafford.

Simon - This lawyer KNEW this when he accepted the case. Should he win it, the business it will bring him would be large in proportion.

I agree that it may well be the firm he is working for that made the decision. That said, then they should be reminded of the business and prestige this will bring them.

They knew when they accepted this case - therefor to quit now, isn't right. It could also be that someone high up in the firm has been paid off by the WTS.

I'll find a way to help financially Simon. I can sell some things and send the cash. I just can't see someone being expected to pay 72,000.00 in one drop.

Perhaps the thing to push here Simon, is for people to be calm and respectful in their communication with said lawyer and firm.

stratton, ohio (ap) -- in a town this small, it's easy to tell who doesn't belong.

While in one particular congregation - the military (where my husband worked, and in PMQs we lived) banned the JWs from preaching. At this base, the military family quarters are not separated from civilians, but blended in with, which was actually really nice.

No ban is going to stop the dubs. We went door to door, and sometimes the military police or RCMP were called, and we said we'd listen, but were back the next day. If we thought we were noticed, we'd leave that street and do another.

Moral of the story - no ban, whereever it is, will stop the dubs from doing their thing.

Simon - I would never be disrespectful, either via email or phone. I do not however, think it is fair that he not see the dad to the end of this. I will keep it to an email, as I agree that calling would be pestering.

pets

hi everyone,.

quick question...are jw discouraged from having pets?

Mimilly

In one of the congregations I use to go to, we were encouraged to feed our pets with food that did not have by-products in it. I never ran into any anti-pet ownership remarks.

I wouldn't be without my pets. They are my best friends in the entire world, and will continue to be. I've two cats and two dogs.

Islam prohibits having dogs as pets. Cats are ok - but dogs and pigs are considered 'dirty'. Personally I think the prophet Mohammed had a quirk about it all. I am friends with a Muslim family, but they cannot visit my home due to my pets. I respect their beliefs, but find this particular one absolutely rediculas.

completely OT....leech infection!

by scootergirl in

okay.....now this thread is completely off any topic i have seen here before...but i am just in shock over an infection that my 9 year old son got w/in hours of swimming at an area lake.

my kids went swimming for about 4 hours yesterday and my middle boy, james, found a leech in his belly button on the ride home.

he didn't think anything of it and pulled it off.

Mimilly

Scootergirl - OMG! I have never heard of anything like this occuring. I wonder if the leeches in that lake 'have' something? Well, I know THAT leech did, but perhaps there is something in the lake affecting all of the leeches.

Those pics! That looks incredibly sore and uncomfy. Personally, I am not a lake person. It's the ocean or a pool for me.

I hope your son feels better soon Scoot. Kudos on your quick action.

Geez this pisses me off. This lawyer KNEW when he got involved that it was going to be like this. It's one of the key things the WTS does to 'win' their cases. It's no different than taking on insurance companies or the government. Big business vs. ordinary citizen. I will definitely be writing this lawyer. Is there a phone number where he can be reached? (the lawyer).

I cannot help financially at this point in time, but I WILL lend my voice in support of the father and to the father involved.

Question for good boy's gone bad?

by butalbee in

i've read on this website countless threads about girls getting involved, falling head over feet in love with dubs.

supposingly good dubs, who want their cake with extra frosting on top, so to speak.... me being one of those girls, who fell in love with the wrong guy--knows exactly how they feel--one way or another they've gonna get hurt, and i think i've replied with the "run for your life" type statement--in truth, it is really the only sane choice.

i know why we fall helplessly infatuation w/ these dud's--they're charming, well mannered, well dressed, kind, innocently sexy, they look great in a suit, and i guess, in my case, i used to invision myself taking off his suit: first the tie, then unbuttoning his shirt with my mouth, and well--okay--i am again meandering off the path.. here is my question and it is for all the male jw's that may read this: if you know it is wrong to get involved with worldly women, then why do you pursue us?????

Mimilly

butalbee - hon I missed you! I too, was worried about you. I also emailed you but now I see that it must have been 'booted' by hotmail. So glad you're back!

hugs, Mimilly
