What are Vegamite and Marmite?
I didn't vote for Bush.
Why do you call a sweater a jumper? A jumper is a guy on top of a building contemplating suicide.

ok, america, this is it.
you have got to start learning english english at some point or another, after all, us brits are having to learn american english to be able to understand all those films (movies) about how you saved our arses (butts) during the 1939 -1945 (1941 - 1945) war.. now we all know the obvious ones, such as you calling a car bonnet the hood, the boot is the trunk and a spanner being a wrench etc etc.
plus the fact that you eat fries instead of chips and spread mayo instead of butter.

"...and they lived happily ever after."
there is a homeless man (ill call him pete) that stands on a street corner nearby my home.
hes been on this corner since i moved into this neighborhood almost 4 years ago.
a staple to our community really.
My family and I were at the Seattle waterfront a couple weeks ago and there were beggars everywhere. The Prince is always irritated by the signs. He wants to know where they hide the stash of Magic Markers. Anyway, there was a young man sitting on the sidewalk with his clean and very cute baby daughter. He had a homeless/jobless sign and a torn cup from a nearby restaurant. His baby was well dressed in a nice stroller with expensive toys. People were giving him cans of formula and money. What a scam! Oh yeah, he was smoking too. I was really annoyed by that one, and all the suckers giving him freebies.

thought sparked by another thread where i said i'd move to the us if i won the lottery: if you could move wherever you liked in the world (in this fantasy, all your material, intellectual, emotional and spiritual needs are taken care of so that you can make this move), where would it be, and what would be the basis for your decision?.
q: how do you know a dub loyal to "jehovah's organisation" is lying?.
a: their lips are moving.
Francoise, have you ever been to the Pacific NW in the fall/winter? You'd love it.
I personally would take my lottery winnings and tour the world, then pick my favorite spot.

just wondering, how could anybody not want to come to the u.s. yes, i'm well aware i'm opening a post for flaming, and flaming is what i need to here!

one word: colgate baby!.
Come on Stephanus, which state? PULEESE tell! We won't argue over which of the 50 is the best. Well, I won't anyway.

last night i went to my first meditation class, conducted by a nice young man, teaching a yoga-type meditation.
it is my first venture into meditating, and i thought i would share a couple of interesting points.
i was with an old friend, who also happens to be an ex dub, but only out about a year.
I'm so glad you liked it! It sounds like something that could be very beneficial for you right now with your cousin, and in the future too of course.
Princess
joel, i want you to know i can think of no other poster who shows as much humanity, as much compassion and insight as you, particularly when it comes to the human condition.. thank you for sharing yourself and your journey so openly; i'm grateful for that.
you obviously have picked up many helpful tools in your recovery toolkit, and when you not only share them with us but show how to use them, how they can benefit us, we are the richer.. i need not say more, than that you are loved very much.. maximus.
who once in a while learns from joel a leeeetle more than he needed to, but what else is new?
((((((((((((((((((((((Joelbear)))))))))))))))))))))))))
many of you know that i have a good friend, who is still a dub, and her husband is an elder.
they both talk to us, and i see her all the time, and talk to her everyday.
she called this morning to tell me about the dinner they had last night with some old friends.
They are all freaks of nature, perfect for the borg. You forgot to mention Norma named her son Smokey and then changed it to Sonny. She was thinking clearly. I'm so surprised Linda didn't mention seeing me making beer too, she could have come up with all sorts of interesting gossip about an apostate making beer with his daughter. I also saw her a few weeks ago at her salon after my pedicure. Wasn't there an assembly part years ago about getting your nails done? She could have used that. Too bad!

ok last post before me and my pillow get together.
so what is the dress code of jw.
i notice a lot of long skirts, and dresses.
Waiting was right on. I got in trouble for the length of the slits in my skirts too. Just couldn't win. A couple weeks ago the prince and I hauled out his suits and ties for my brothers wedding. We were surprised at how rebellious his ties got toward the end of our borg stay. He had a tie with the Tazmanian devil playing football, one with Winnie the Pooh, Tigger and the gang and my personal favorite, a tie with "Grinch for President" all over it. He wore that one to the CO visit (to my horror) and the CO came over just to see what it said. He made no comment, just walked away!
They will suck the life out of you. No way around it.

Years ago the elders told my husband that my skirts were too short. He suggested we go shopping one evening and was partial to some pretty longs skirts. He finally spilled the beans so I wore the long ones to the meetings and the short ones to work. I finally got sick of it and went back to the short ones. Then one of the older elders (married to a fanatic pioneer sister) started hitting on me all the time. I realized that it was actually the elder's wives who didn't like my skirts and dresses. I wore them anyway.
