... my girlfriend is training to be a classical singer.. the conservatory she attends had a project week this week that culminated in three nights of peer gynt, the first of which was last night.. peer gynt is a fairly weird opratic production, but it doesn't fit genre's very well; sort of becket with singing and a bit of dancing, arguement with god/self/same thing... although i don't speak dutch properly (or german) yet, so that's a vauge synopsis.. anyhow, my gf was in the choir.

i just thought it was so cool that i could pick her voice out of sixty or seventy, clear as a bell, shining away.. her voice is developing from something impressive to, well, wow, and it's on nights like that i really get to appreciate it.. .

keep on rocking in the free world...

A JW fairy tale

any, many years ago lived an emperor, who thought so much of new clothes that he spent all his money in order to obtain them; his only ambition was to be always well dressed.

he did not care for his soldiers, and the theatre did not amuse him; the only thing, in fact, he thought anything of was to drive out and show a new suit of clothes.

he had a coat for every hour of the day; and as one would say of a king.

someone on another thread asked about schnell's book, thirty years a watchtower slave.

i have a copy of it, but hadn't looked at in many years.

i reviewed it again, and understand its importance better now that i know more about the jw history.. let me summarize some of the information that struck me.

what a joke, there is no basis for the "no beards" policy.

yes believe in anything you read or see on the net....and be
quick to commit to it.........and the basis for the story
can i interest you in a bible study?

According to Schnell, Rutherford's "no beard" policy was because Russell had a beard, and Rutherford wanted to get rid of everything that reminded people of Russell.

according shnell or the wts?

how longo it took you to find out your mate was cheating you, kidding.

really how long it took you to find out the truth about the truth or at least to become really distrust about the whole thing, and why.. to start i just knew, by summer 1974, that big a was not comming on 1975. the oil embargo, nixon etc kept me worry for a while.

i even resigned a very lucrative and promising job to piooner.
