in early march of this year, in the echoes of uncertainty left after the horror of 9-11, just one year after i had nearly died myself from a massive, still unexplained, seizure, i determined that i wanted to be a writer.

there were so many things i wanted to write about, my head swirled with possibilities.

one topic kept coming front and center, unavoidably.

((((((((((((((((((((mikepence and family)))))))))))))))))))))

I have been on both sides of the coin, having been abused and then helping my step-son deal with the abuse he suffered at the hands of his former step-mother. We did take him for therapy, and I educated my girls on what to do if (horror) this happened to them. It took me years of therapy, and I know my step-son may still need it to some degree.

My email is open Mike. I'm short on funds, but every bit helps right? Your wife is more than welcome to email me. I deal with serious health issues from all the abuse I went through, and a severe case of mono.

I'm proud of you for your writing on this heartbreaking subject. I would love to read your articles. I have started a book, but right now it's too hard to return to it.

Please tell your children how proud we are of them and how strong they are for telling. I hope that bastard gets everything he deserves. If there's one thing I've learned from an early age - it's that if someone gets away with abuse - they will not stop.

lotsa hugs and sunbeams being sent your way,

I've Retired

by Stephanus in

friends

well, i've reached my goal of 2000+ posts and have decided to move on.

i've never felt that i've contributed much here, anyway, and since my background is not jw, it's easy to see why some here see me as an interloper and trespasser.

i may look in from time to time and (to be polite) be involved in threads i've started, but i need to get a life outside this board.

Mimilly

Enjoy your retirement there Stephanus... and do drop in often.

You know it`s time to take a break from JW.com...

by OUTLAW in

just like a lot of people on this board,every once in a while i take a break from this nuthouse we call cyber home,jw.com.

i usually know it`s time to take a break from this place when i start argueing with the board crazies and expect normal responses from them(lol)so whats your que,to take a break from jw.com?

Mimilly

When I'm getting absolutley NOTHING done around the house! Hmmm.... house IS kinda messy - ahh who cares... it'll take all of one hour to clean up.

Seriously though, I take short breaks when I feel depression creeping in, like after Dateline. That show brought back a flood for me, and it was quite awhile beforeI could even read the Panarama stuff.

Also, I take a breather when there is too much arguing going on. (a debate is fine - I just loathe arguments for arguments sake)

I love this place. I'll never leave. PS: Viv posted my two best friends on her thread 'Pussys flying around. (pg3) I know... a shameless plug - but Diego and Tjiske are worth the look Between this wonderful cyber home and these two doggie kindred spirits, I am able to face the world.

hugs to all,

A few thoughts.

by The_Bad_Seed in

i see that this board/forum has many serious, and what i consider to be meritous posters, that can usually be found dispelling the wtbts shyte.

since my foul arrival here in may, i have read and taken in volumes of great information from this site and it's links, which would have proved (and are) extremely helpful, and valuable to me had i felt the need for justification in my decision to leave the borg in the first place.

i saw the holes, the self preservative techniques, the speculations, the stupid protocols, the 'prophecies' that had outlived their shelf lives, and simply walked away, never really having looked back, always having felt justified because it just didn't feel right to me.

Mimilly

Naebs hon - do you go around sniffing ducks? (place mental pic here) If so, do ducks smell different than other ducks? And what DOES a duck smell like?

Hmmm, perhaps you have uncovered a fetish for the feathered kind that quacks.

Btw... Naebs... get the story done on the canadian taliban. I will haunt you

Bad seed - Hope to see you around. Don't be a stranger.

hugs to both,

Poll: Affection or sex

by Mimilly in

if...... you had to choose just one to have for the rest of your life, which would it be?

affection or sex?

by affection here i mean snuggling, kissing, hand holding, all the little things.

Mimilly

I NEVER, in my wildest dreams thought there would be such a response to this thread! Wow! Yet I see a few trying to combine the choice.

Comf asked, 'eating or breathing'. Nope, not same question.

Case in point - What if you are happily living with a significant other for a number of years and leaving them is not an option. What if due to age, medication etc, they lost the need and want of sex, but was still affectionate? OR - What if they had an accident with a brain injury that left them incapable of affection as before, but accepted sex?

Moe hon - no, I don't mean the mushy kind

Keep on keepin on.....

WHAT"S THE FUNNIEST THING YOU'VE SEEN???

by minimus in

jw

i remember years ago after giving a public talk, the sister who was playing the piano had to rush to the front of the hall to get ready to play the opening song for the watchtower study.

what she didn't realize was that her dress was neatly tucked in to her pantyhose for all to see,since she had just come out of the bathroom.

the attendant was trying to literally run behind her to tell her of what she was exposing, but couldn't keep up with her.

This has nothing to do with the kingdumb hall, but it WAS the funniest thing I've ever seen.

Hubby #1 and I were entertaining an elder and his wife (during good times) one day. Our girls were 3 and 1.5yrs old, and they were upstairs. Hubby was talking to our guests and I was watching a certain cloud creep into the livingroom. Although I pretended to be listening, I was searching my brain for what that cloud could be and FLASH! I excused myself and ran upstairs. As I reached the top of the stairs and turned to the girls' room, I saw Beth, holding a monster sized baby powder container and when I looked at Shelene (1.5yr old), all I saw were two blue eyes) Beth had dumped the entire contents over her sister. This still isn't the funniest part, mind you it took forever to clean up Shelene and forever and a day to get the powder off the hardwood floors all over the house.

The baby powder set off the smoke alarms, which, in the PMQs (military family housing) are attached right into the electrical system. Hubby and I spent a LONG day fanning the darned things cos they kept going off. We stayed up late and watched a movie. Around midnight (the elder and his wife occasion was in the morning), the smoke alarms had been silent for just over an hour and we were beat, and thought it safe to go to bed, and we did.

2am. Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep! Amazingly the girls didn't wake up, but as I started to roll out of bed to fan yet another smoke alarm, hubby groggily sat up (so I layed down) and instead of going to the smoke alarm, he went to the alarm clock and sat on the bed with this thing on his lap - pushing all the buttons with the confused face of 'why won't this thing go off?' Well, when he realized it was the smoke alarm again, he walked into the hall with a large book and smacked the thing right off the ceiling. I was nearly pissing myself laughing in bed but didn't DARE let him know I was awake. LOL.

When the repairman came he looked at me and said - "you know, all you had to do was turn the breaker off" to which I replied, "you don't know my husband".

I still go into tears when I remember the look on his face with the clock on his lap pushing buttons. And I still laugh when I remember Beth being caught turning Shelene into a blue-eyed snowgirl. By far, it was the funniest and irritating day of my life.
