The Watchtower Caste System & How We All Bought Into It
by minimus inif you were a jw, you know that everything hinged upon getting privileges, doing more, climbing the theocratic ladder.
if we "made it" to ministerial servant, our goal was to reach out and be an elder.
if we were part of a family that had an elder, m.s.

??? Is there such a thing? I thought the annointed were all elderly.

Covering Kingdom Music
by professor inhas anyone ever tried to release covers of kingdom music?
generally, i'm thinking you have to have the artist's permission.
but what if you change it a little?

i used to sing my own lyrics as loud as i could... Profanities and all, then i got "counselled" by an elder, then i just stopped singing so loud... HA HA
Right on. I just think it would be awful for someone not to put some of this stuff on wax and spin it at a rave or something. Plus you can put appropriate samples in like robots, military sounds, s&M, things of that nature.

I'm saying this because it would be a gosh darn hoot to parody some KM classics into some raw, bootylicious techno gabber house. The possibilities are endless.

How many more years do you think you have left to live?
by JH in.
since i'm relatively healthy, don't smoke, hardly drink (2 beers a day), and if i base myself on my grandparents and parents age, i think that i should live up to anywhere between 85 and 95. which means i should have another 40 to 50 years of posting here.

Internet Advice
by the_classicist inok, so i'm asking y'all for some computer advice as i am partly computer illiterate.. first of all, my internet connect is painfully slow.
i'm currently using shaw cable internet and i'm getting download speeds of around 3000-4000kbps.
i'm thinking of moving to telus adsl, though, because of a free digital camera offer.

yeah, getting the best one for free sure does suck
Only as it eliminates the competition and stifles progress I guess.

If you are getting download speeds of 3-4 megs per second, your Internet connection is not slow. Perhaps there is something else slowing down your experience, such as spyware or low memory. If you are running on Windows XP or 2000, download Microsoft Windows Anti-Spyware here. If you're not using XP or 2000, then use Ad-Aware. Download it here. Both of these anti-spyware applications are free, and Microsoft's is unfortunately the best out there right now. You should also consider if you have enough RAM installed on your computer, and how many programs load up automatically when you start up you computer, eating your ram.DSL is kind of hit or miss. There are really good DSL connections out there, and really crappy ones. Usually, they lock you into a contract, so know what speeds they are promising you before you commit. Any free digital camera is probably not that good! Personally, I have been switching back and forth every six months from one high speed connection to another, just because these companies like to play that game of doubling your price after a period of time. I have had the best success with cable Internet, and, as I said, 3-4 megs per second is not slow at all, athough it could be faster. DSL most likely will not beat the speeds you are getting now.
As far as anti-virus, the best free one by far is AVAST! download that here. It is probably a bit better to be running Norton or McAfee, if you have the $40/yr. or so to spend. I'm not sure what firewall is on your DLink router, but all you really need if you are running XP is to make sure you have downloaded servicepak 2, which includes Microsoft's firewall. Otherwise, the old standby free firewall is ZoneAlarm available here. Yes, these days if you are on broadband, you need all three: Anti-Spyware, Anti-Virus, and Firewall. I hope this information helps. If you have more questions, PM me. -pro
