Thanks guys!
I gave it a good reading over. There is some good, common sense ideas I can glean from it. A few ideas I definitely don't agree with, but thought provoking none the less.

That's not a very useful post, enigma.
This site has become strangely inhospitable. Gee, wonder why, LL.

Family tragedy.........HappyDad
by HappyDad ingot a phone call from my daughter who lives in florida a couple of hours ago.
her significant other who i chose to call my son-in-law (because he is the best thing to ever happen to her) got a phone call that his 6 year old daughter was killed in an auto accident near lake placid, florida and his 5 year old son is in very critical condition.
the ex wife is also critical.

Thanks so much for your comments, Jgnat!
I'll think about what you said. I guess I feel like we never had it out, you know kind of all sit down at a table and lay everything we have out - or a slug fest if necessary. Then we would either solve it or be done with it for good. A clean answer.
Now, that's my feeling. But I don't know if the reality would be different, out of control, like some sort of Pandora's box.
What ya think?

That's a good point about corporate interest in food markets. Did anyone see "SuperSize Me"? That freeked me out a bit, as I don't know much about lobby groups...

I recently got an e-mail from my brother. There were pictures of his kids and wife, visiting my ageing parents. It was bitter-sweet. My wife was excited to see recent pictures. She thought it was a good chance to try visit. But I feel strange.
It’s been ten years since the family kicked me out of the house for doubting the Watchtower Society. In that time I turned my wrecked life into a success story. But I have an “empty place”, to quote Stuart Little. I had a dream of getting the family together again and being normal. I think of it almost daily. But I am losing hope. It has consumed me at times. As a direct result, I feel I am gradually losing power in my daily life, finding it hard to make decisions, or get involved.
I may be able to see them all again. But I don’t know if I can handle any possible bubbling under the surface of what I perceive to be the real issue in our family – the Watchtower. Despite the polite e-mail, I wonder about their “paradise hope” being based on “rivers of blood” of non-Witnesses. I don’t know if I could handle any insinuation or backhanded comments from anyone in the family, as we kids were trained to do to non-Witnesses.
