  Calling Out Jehovah's Name

  if you're in trouble today, don't panic.

  all you need to do is yell out at the top of your voice, "jehovah!".

  well, that's what many jehovah's witnesses believe.

  the level of disapointment

  as i look at the members in my area, i see alot of fustration and disapointment.

  those who still beleive 100%, are sending there kids off to college( to live on campus),there is no rush to send there kids off to bethel and others are just going through the motions just so they wont be questioned.

  in the last 7 years i've been in 2 congregations, in 2 different states, and the level of tension and in fighting in both, has made the isreali/ palistani conflict look mild.

  so as you get farther along in your pregnancy and you get bigger and bigger, certain bodily functions are hard to control.

  the other day my husband, son and i went out for a nice lunch.

  we were dressed up and really enjoying ourselves, when it happened.

  Cue B, Welcome! Your story is so horribly sad. Thank you for sharing .

  Cuebert said- She then layed a series of insults and verbal abuse on me that I will never forget and kicked me out of her home.

  Emotional abuse can sometimes cause more damage to a person than physical.

  Just wondering when you were kicked out, did you have a job or a place to go? What did you do? Were you 18 years old?

  I used to go to the 8th Street playhouse in the Village for the midnight showing. (History-Sal Piro started the yelling back at the screen-originally the midnight movie when it was playing at the Waverly theatre on 6th Ave in the village.

  Dori Hartley played Frank-N--Furter as part of the floor show for years, (I believe she is a free-lance writer- sometimes for The Huffington Post- and remember her beautiful art work- she really looked like Tim.

  It was so much fun. Especially when we had taken our mothers' to the show!A friend of my brother and I played Janet in the floorshow.

  Mrs, Jones you should go to the late-night double feature picture show!
