  when i was about 11 years old me and my two(not so bright)sisters were at a hotel swimming pool.i was sitting by the pool watching my one sister(we will call her k) that could barely swim herself teach my other sister who was terrified of water(we will call her b) how to swim.they started out in shallow end swimming underwater when b went off course and ended up in the deep end.when she came up she started panicing and k went over to help her.

  b grabed on to k pushing her under water and then k paniced and pushed b under trying to stay above water.they did this cute little routine for a while (up pops k down goes k up pops b down goes b)if it was'nt so life threatening it would of been hilarious.

  (i did start laughing...at first)then it got to the point where i knew i had to do something because they were getting ready to drown...they were swallowing tons of water and there was no time to get help.

  My cousin was dating a Catholic girl and was about to join her church, when I jumped in and started a JW Bible Study with him. Boy, that was a close one!

  i heard from my mom that harley miller died in california -- apparently -- today.

  i understand he had gone there for a pacemaker, but died before he could get it.. he had an article in the wt or awake 10 -12 years ago.

  although i didn't know him, he sounded like a pretty decent fellow.. fp

  Why did YOU want to live forever??

  by Scully in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what was it about living forever that appealed to you when you were a jw?.

  was it the idea that you'd have all the time in the world to do whatever you wanted to do?

  were you thinking about travelling the world and seeing it all transformed into a paradise?

  2. friends

  what's your favourite cheese, please?.

  mine's gruyere, a swiss cheese that is absolutely scrummy.http://www.cheese.com/description.asp?name=gruyere.

  of course, i still enjoy the noble stilton, danish blue and there ain't nothing to compare to a genuine parmesan with pasta.. but, gruyere takes some beating, i reckon.. englishman.

  Prayers for you both! Why NYC? Relatives there?

  She may find that being away from you is no picnic either. Be patient!

  I have a copy of the latest video. It's entitled 'RESPECT JEHOVAH'S AUTHORITY' and is a Bible Drama introduced by Samual Herd of the Governing Body.

  'A prominent Levite Turns Rebel. Moses leadership is challenged. Loyalty to Jehovah is tested.

  So, you know where they are trying to take you. More mind control crap to aid in worshiping the idol.

  how's the weekend going for you?

  here in the great sunburnt country it's time to put the feet up and relax with a good cuppa, whilst i guess the north american posters and lurkers are still raging on saturday eve.

  wherever you are, take a few minutes to just relax and unwind and enjoy reminiscing.

  When I was 'Pioneering', anything over 40 hours was counted at 'time and a half'! One time I bought a house on my coffee break, and of course kept the clock running!
