He perdicted housing prices peeking the third quarter of "06" he this came to pass. The title of his talk this year was "Still Sliding Towards the Trough."
This last Friday November 16, 2007 he spoke again. I couldn't wait to here what he had to say.
Over all, the economy is in pretty good shape. Areas of concern.
1. Housing Contraction (He says the slide will hopfully end sometime in 2009) the best place to buy Utah 15.28% up. Neveda worst state with 1.45% down.
2. Oil Shock (almost record price) will effect prices of "everything."
3. Credit Tightening...
4.Food Price Developments
Bottom line we have only a 1 in 3 chance of a Recession.
What do you think?
it was so wonderful.
i had to give a testimony in church.
i kept on having to stop to take a deep breath as the tears were threatening to come pouring out into the ugly cry.
Which religion?
when i joined jwd i still felt the need for a 'support group' and jwd was full of similar people wanting to share their experience.
now the time has come for me to leave - i am now able to put 35 years of jw living completely out of my head.. .
many factors have helped me, and jwd was an important part of that, and i will always be grateful to simon for setting up this forum.. .
That's the whole point....this is a nice place to visit....you don't want to live here...If your heathly you get to leave...
Come back to help others or...leave.
The most important thing is do what feels right.
This board hasn't changed! Only you have....go in peace my friend.
This place is just like everything else in life......changable and changing...It is a reflection of yourself.
Make peace...with it...or hate it...it is what it is....

i realize this is not my first post, but id like to introduce myself.
my name is shepherd book.
so i wrote to the watchtower society.. .
Yes your right....the society want you to be an expert about things, my studing everything THEY HAVE WRITTEN about any given subject. NOT what other people have written about that subject.
well after working on for three months it is done.
the title "the long way home.
it starts off in heaven, (or something like it) our young hero is getting ready to reincarnate to one of the toughest places you can ever go, in the universe....planet earth.

He is recalling his last horific life time in WWII. A life full love, hate, betrayal....blame and finally death in combat...Just before he dies he is shaking his fist at God...and says....
"GOD...if you are there...God if you exist...What have done TO us?...You...either care nothing for us or are a FOOL...either way...I HATE YOU...And, I hate this life YOU gave me!"
After dying and going back to his real home/heaven, he finds out God had nothing to do with how his pass life went.....It was a life HE choose for himself, in order for him to learn the lessons of Love and Compassion........lessons he and his "soul mates" have been working on for many life times.
Anyway there are lots of twists and turns....He actually come back to earth the son of the guy who killed him in the war...His sister is now his brother...His old lover becomes....well, I guess you're just going to have to see the movie...(that is..if I can sell the script)...LOL
If I sell this one, my next will be "New Boy" (life in the house of God)......LOL
i cannot but read many of the posts in which god/jehovah or even christ is ridiculed, mocked and even hated?
so i ask the question why?.
what has god ever done to you personally?
Sad as it seems that many here have thrown out the "baby with the bath water"....Bath water being organized religions....
Just because you were wrong about your old God...(Jehovah).
Doesn't being you can't be wrong again...about how things really work with Him/Her.
What if I told you that everything that happens on this planet is perfect..What if I told you YOU are perfect?
What if I told you YOU picked your life...YOU picked your parents.YOU picked who you married...
I think most here would say, I don't know "What in the Hell" I was talking about.
All I can say is, don't take it out on God, just because you could be all wrong about Him/Her again!
You had it wrong in the pass...Do really think your "right" now?
according to our va, this young man does not deserve 100% disability: .

more than 28,500 troops have been wounded in operation iraqi freedom, including about 8,500 that have needed air transport, according to the u.s. military.
I like the bumper sticker
WAR IS GOOD FOR BUSINESS
INVEST YOUR SON
War is stupid...The people who fight in it are stupid..
The parents that send/let their children to fight in...it are stupid...
If you don't believe me look at the picture again...
i haven't seen this topic on here so i thought i'd.... hmmm, maybe it's because it's just too disturbing?
to me, the scene in saving private ryan - the two soldiers in the small upstairs room fighting hand to hand to the death (by stabbing).
i think that is the most disturbing thing i've seen on screen and there were plenty just in that film alone.
Each time period....is different.
1979 Alien jumping out of the guys stomach.
2000 Anthony Hopkins eating John Travolta's brains while he is still alive.
would you rather date an overweight woman who has a beautiful face or one who isn't overweight and is just plain ugly.
how about a woman with a few curves, say about 20 lbs overweight or so for her height?
discuss.
To answer your question....YES!
