  For thousands of years, men have tried to understand the rules when
  dealing with women. Finally, this merit/demerit guide will help you to understand just how it works.

  Remember, in the world of romance, one single rule applies:

  Make the woman happy.

  Do something she likes, and you get points. Do something she dislikes, and points are subtracted. You don't get any points for doing something she expects. Sorry, that's the way the game is played.

  Here is a guide to the points system:

  SIMPLE DUTIES

  You make the bed.....+1
  You make the bed, but forget to add the decorative pillows.....0
  You throw the bedspread over rumpled sheets....-1
  You leave the toilet seat up...-5
  You go out to buy her extra-light panty liners with wings....+5
  in the snow.....+8
  but return with beer....-5
  and no liners....-25

  You check out a suspicious noise at night.....0
  You check out a suspicious noise and it is nothing...... 0
  You check out a suspicious noise and it is something.....+5
  You pummel it with a six iron.....+10
  It's her cat......-40

  AT THE PARTY

  You stay by her side the entire party....0
  You stay by her side for a while, then leave to chat with a high school drinking buddy.....-2
  Named Tiffany......-4
  Tiffany is a dancer.....-10
  With breast implants....-18

  HER BIRTHDAY (well some of us do you know!)

  You remember her birthday....0
  You buy a card and flowers....0
  You take her out to dinner.......0
  You take her out to dinner and it's not a sports bar....+1
  Okay, it is a sports bar.....-2
  And it's all-you-can-eat night......-3
  It's a sports bar, it's all-you-can-eat night, and your face is painted the colours of your favourite team...-10

  A NIGHT OUT WITH THE BOYS

  Go with a pal....0
  The pal is happily married......+1
  The pal is single......-7
  He drives a Ferrari......-10
  With a personalised license plate (GR8 NBED).....-15

  A NIGHT OUT WITH HER

  You take her to a movie...+2
  You take her to a movie she likes....+4
  You take her to a movie you hate.....+6
  You take her to a movie you like.....-2
  It's called Death Cop 3.....-3
  Which features Cyborgs that eat humans.....-9
  You lied and said it was a foreign film about orphans....-15

  YOUR PHYSIQUE

  You develop a noticeable pot belly......-15
  You develop a noticeable pot belly & exercise to get rid of it....+10
  You develop a noticeable pot belly and resort to loose jeans and baggy
  Hawaiian shirts....-30
  You say, "It doesn't matter, you have one too."....-800

  THE BIG QUESTION

  She asks, "Does this dress make me look fat?"
  You hesitate in responding.....-10
  You reply, "Where?"......-35
  Any other response.....-20

  COMMUNICATION

  When she wants to talk about a problem:
  You listen, displaying a concerned expression......0
  You listen, for over 30 minutes.......+5
  You relate to her problem and share a similar experience.....+50
  Your mind wanders to sports and you suddenly hear her saying, "Well,what do you think I should do?"...-50
  You listen for more than 30 minutes without looking at the TV....+100
  She realises this is because you have fallen asleep.....-200

  Archaeology vs WBTS ( who build the pyramids?)

  by bj in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in my book of bible stories (1978), chapter 27, the wbts give the impression to readers, that israelites, participated in building egyptian pyramids.

  also, the watchtower - november 15, 1987, page 30, raises the two following questions: "do the pyramids of giza (near modern cairo) bring to mind abused slaves toiling under hot sun to drag huge stones into place?

  and do you imagine hebrew slaves among them?

  Blood cards - before screaming too loudly,

  1. jw
  2. friends

  keep in mind that the blood cards are produced and circulated in all other countries worldwide.

  if they are not so in the us, please do not scream too loudly that major changes are occuring etc., because this has got to be some local us thing, if it is true what you say that they are not renewed in the us.

  Geordie, Nelly,

  Unfortunately this is rather 'old news' but if you'd like to find out more try http://m3.easyspace.com/kelebekler/cesnur/txt/jw2.htm

  The piece is written by Miguel Martinez

  He was born in Mexico but grew up in Italy. At the age of 20, he joined a political-esoteric cult known as New Acropolis, becoming one of its leaders. He established several branches of this organisation in Italy (Siracusa, Piacenza, Milan) and was then appointed "National Commander" of the organisation for Egypt.

  He left the organisation in 1990, and then obtained a degree in Oriental Languages and Literature (Arabic and Farsi), with a thesis comparing the approach to the holy places of Jerusalem in pre-millennial dispensationalism with that of radical Islamism.

  He has written for several publications dealing with social, political and religious issues.

  I'd be more than happy to host these files at DNC - just give me a day or so to set it up and I'll let you know the precise url.

  Also, I'm still receiving UK Kingdom Ministry's. I'll make a point of scanning each new one as I get it and posting it here where you (and everyone else) can grab it.

  Are you up to date with KM's? If you've got any missing from the past couple of years just let me know.

  Keep sticking it to 'em Kent!

  The Watchtower? I say they're a cult, and I say fuck 'em.

  Wow! I've never heard the ethic of our cause, the motivation that drives us expressed quite so eloquently!!

  Seriously Francois - you rock!

  Goodbye to friends made here, moving on

  by Celtic in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ummmmm how to put this?

  i'm leaving and moving on from this community, obviously to the great delight of many of you, however, for all the other more genuine characters, may i extend a hand of appreciation for all the help that you have given me at times.. to be honest, this place makes me feel more ill often than better, it feels like i'm sliding backwards the longer i stay around.. maybe one day i'll return when attitudes from those who could be more socially responsible actually make their nessarsary changes rather than constantly being on the attack against those who have no other agenda but a desire to help out their fellow man, regardless of religion, creed, sexual orientation or whatknot.. to those friends that i have made here, please feel free to email me anytime and/or if ever you need any help personally, please do not hesitate to call upon me.. cheerio, keep your chins up.. peace & whatknot(?).
