  Hello Betty

  I can not speak English correct either, and I sure can not speak German. So join the club.

  I know the word for rabbit, but can not spell it.

  Herbert W. Armstrong - memories

  an ad that appears when viewing certain pages on the jwd web site refer to herbert w. armstrong - and his religion.. i remember this fella... not personally - but through the radio - and his preaching that he used to do on the air.. i remember tuning in a radio station - far far away (when i was a kid) - in del rio, tx (or perhaps across the border in mexico - xerf?).

  he would get air time, and then preach - for what seemed like hours - although, i'm sure that it was only a 30 minute spot - or perhaps an hour-long spot of air-time.. i even seem to remember telling my mom at the time how much he sounded like jehovah's witnesses - in what he was preaching about.. i also remember my mom defending the jws - saying - essentially - that herbert armstrong was a kook.

  armstrong had his own set of literature... i really think that he was a 'subscriber' to jw literature... and probably stole many ideas from the watchtowers... or other publications that he could get his hands on.. or... perhaps it's the other way... perhaps the jws 'borrowed' from his literature.. in any case... it brings back memories.. regards,.

  My mother sucscribed to his magazine "The Plain Truth" then started studying with the JWs because the Jws were the closest thing to Armstrong.

  It was rumored he became apostate and borrowed some of the society's teachings.

  I don't know for sure.

  Abyss, thanks. But I have a problem with Colchicine. It gives me very bad diarrhea. I actually have several tablets left from a few years ago when it was prescribed. This led to a bout of hemorroids! My second least favorite ailment.

  Colchicine gives everyone diarrhea if taken too many at one time.

  taken one every morning should not effect you, at lease not me.

  " In short, WA says Del Dotto "charges high fees for information which is virtually worthless, outdated, and unethical." WA authorities were seeking a restraining order to prevent Del Dotto from holding a seminar in the state. Court papers reveal previously unknown facts about Del Dotto: IRS placed a lien on his Hawaii house in 1993. In 1995, Hawaii sued him for nonpayment of $5,000,000 in loans. He filed for Chapter 7 personal bankruptcy, and his corporation filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1995. In 1996, he agreed to pay a $200,000 fine to the FTC"

  well, I hope he sold a lot of wine.

  You begin searching on literary agents list then you follow their instruction (to a tee) no variations.

  Write a query. THis is why you need to join a writers forum--usally they are free and you are able to get feed back on your work.

  I know who you are talking about, but I didn't know he lived in Nappa.

  I lived in Clearlake, Ca. for 35 years went to assemblies with the Nappa and Calistoga circuit. He was never mentioned by any of the hob nobbers as being a witness. He always reminded me of a schister.

  There was one quadtroplegic who owned a winery in Calistoga, but I can't remember his name or his wine's brand.

  Dan Walker (of the Infamious Clearlake congregation.)
