Gregor, The pic you posted looks very much like my family photos. Real cowboys wear wide brim hats that don't curl up much . They need as much shade as possible. The clothes are rugged and a little little loose so they breathe and don't chafe. At the end of the day they get sweaty and dirty and smell like their horse.

A question for my friends in the USA about cowboys.
by punkofnice inas a kid growing up in the uk we used to play 'cowboys and indians' and watch high chaparal and bonanza along with other cowboy films.
later, in the 70's kung fu would be shown with caine going through the 'old west'.
we even had a chocolate bar that was marketed with a 'cowboy' theme...milky bar.. as far as i know the 'wild west' as shown on tvdidn't actually exist.. are there people that believe it did?.

About a week ago my adult daughter called me crying. It seems her beloved expensive cat had jumped out of her second story window and disappeared. "Oh dear!" I exclaimed, "Hows **** (her dear sweet roomate) taking it?" "He's taking it even harder than I am. When he told his (born again) parents they promised they would PRAY for his safe return" (Background on daughter) She is college educated, holds down a lucrative job, and saw through the JW nonsence right away.) Fighting back the overwhelming urge to ask, "Are you s#!ting me?" I chucked and said "Do you think the almighty will turn his attention from the starving and abused children in the world to look for your kitty?" "Oh Mom they are just putting it out there in the universe. It couldn't hurt." Well, she had me there, so we hung up. Today she called to say that the cat showed up at her doorstep a little worse for the wear but ok. So there you have it friends. Proof that Jeehoovah returns kitties if only you ask with faith.

When did you start getting ANGRY?
by Separation of Powers inwhen i started the fade....i recognize that i was upset, mainly because of the desillusionment.
but, over the course of the past several months, i am noticing an increasing anger toward all thing org.
it can only be described as indignation, not simply upset.

I realize the question you actually asked was WHEN? It was a long process during the years between 2004 -2011. The last straw was when we read about the Menlo Park Scandal (hubby used to attend there) and followed the money.

Angry? Not a strong enough word. Furious is more like it. I have felt a lot like DOC. I have a circle of anger that starts with myself for taking the path of least resistance as an adult by blindly accepting WBT$ as Gods chosen ones. Then, I blame my parents for forcefully teaching me that their love depends solely on my being an active JW. Then, I shift to J F Rutherfraud who sold them the lies and Knoor/Franz who polished the turds. But THEY were born to Russelites. So I rinse and repeat the cycle of anger.

I Was Asked To Perform A Marriage Ceremony But Don't Know I'm Qualified
by minimus inmy girlfriend's daughter and her fiancee asked me to marry them last night.
they live in connecticut and will be married in new york.
i felt honored that i was asked but i don't think i can do it because i am not a clergyman or minister and my u derstanding is that only clergy or judges and lawyers and justice of the peace can perform a wedding ceremony and marry a couple.. does anyone have any information on this subject?

Gregor: "...........as long as you get the licence ($)." Precisely! Pay the money for the licence and a monkey can perform the ceremony. No disrespect Minimus

I completely agree that the doctors involved are inexcusable. However, she might be alive to sue the bejesus out of them and the hospital were it not for the doctrine.
