way cool graphs
just one question though:
how do we know for sure that it's not the vibrations from the board that's causing the sudden jump in radioactivity from space?? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm????????
Love, Scully
of course none of you are going to believe this is the cause of all the sudden activity on the board tonight, but regardless i'm going to post it anyway.
as having done research work into the effects of geomagnetic pulsations on the human brain in motivational research (as well as many other scientists) i know that whenever there is a rapid increase in the solar wind speed, it is a strong indication of world wide geomagnetic activity happening.
what happens in turn is that your brain, the outer layers or cerebral cortex, becomes more easily stimulated.

Scully,
You need to elaborate! LOL!
Well, use your imagination!!
If I elaborate too much Simon just might have to spank me!

just got off the phone with an elder who called to set up a meeting with me.
my hands are a bit shakey, but i'm settling down and feeling better, all in all.
the elder had left messeges this weekend (i was out of town), and i had heard from my mother a week previous that they were going to come gunning for me.
Sounds like you're off the hook for now, buddy. Congratulations!

i have absolutely had it with farkel's lies and (try new kiddy bathroom bubbles only $3.95 per bottle) his childish attempts to discredit those who still believe in god.
he is relentless in his (now the one pound tub of the famous amway laundry detergent only 19.95) efforts to shove atheism down our throats.
i personally am offended by (new amway energy bars in four tasty flavors, box of 12 only $6.95) his blatantly cynical attitude and slamming dialog.. i think his account should be (summers coming, try amway car wax and make your old car look new)!
Farkel and Dave:
You guys are awesome!
I love ya both. I don't want a discount either.
Love, Scully
rhetorical questions.. how can we individually and collectively make more room for healing?.
what is healing?.
is healing self empowerment?.
Thank you for this Celtic.
The events on the board today have me particularly distressed. I'm loathe to get involved one way or the other, as there's so much I do not know about the people at the heart of the fracas. Moreover, I don't feel it's my place to take sides or pass judgement.
Most days I find this forum to be a refreshing place, where ideas are exchanged openly in a spirit of respect. I can't say that today though, and I feel very bothered by it. I don't expect everyone to always get along and not have disagreements ever, this isn't some kind of virtual Stepford - to hope for that is to be asking the impossible, and that's not how I envision this place anyway.
I don't always agree with everyone, and there are some posters that I prefer over others. There are still others whom I take it upon myself to politely ignore and not descend into the kind of flame wars that I've witnessed in the past. Kind of like what I learned as a kid: "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."
Didn't we all learn that when we were kids??
I'm not saying we can't disagree on anything, but there's no reason in the world why people can't treat each other with respect and give them the human dignity that we all deserve, while disagreeing with ideas that we might put forth.
Love and Peace,
Scully
im sure we all remember how nervous we were around the circuit overseer and how careful we were with our words, i recall one day being out in service with the co's wife and my daughter said to her my dad calls me his mamoo which in greek meant monkey and the co's wife says how cute,and then my daughter says and i call him my little farting machine, omg i called have fallen through the ground, needless to say the circuit overseers wife was not amused, so what funny things have we all said or heard said?
Hi chezza:
During one CO visit, some 10 odd years ago, it was pre-arranged that I was going to have him and his wife over for lunch one day after morning field service. I went to a lot of trouble making a nice home-made soup for them and salad and home-made dinner rolls. I'd even given the house an extra cleaning that morning, just to make a good impression.
I was expecting them for 12 noon "sharp". This was the instruction from the Presiding Overseer, so as not to keep His Loftiness and Her Stuffiness waiting to be served lunch.
Twenty minutes past the expected time of arrival, the telephone rings. It was the CO informing me that they had accepted an offer from Brother Head-Up-My-Butt to go out for lunch, and telling me they would be able to come for lunch the following day instead. I told him, "Sorry, but I have other plans for tomorrow.... maybe you can get Brother Head-Up-Your-Butt to take you out for lunch again tomorrow."
By the way, I didn't REALLY have other plans for the next day at that particular moment. But I made some immediately after I hung up the phone.
Love, Scully
These can be very interesting when used during love-making!

hello all...been lurking between puppy grooms...just had to post this one!.
my daughter and x-hubby (inactive jw for many years) went to dinner the other night at grannies( hard nosed jw) and was told that the wtbs says that jw's can no longer have tubal ligations.
the reasoning was it interferes with the "natural order" of things.
wt 3/1/75 states:
They may view sterilization as a procedure advisable to protect the life of the mother of the children already produced. They may view it as a ‘last resort.’ Thus in making their decision they may feel that it is a question of balancing respect for God’s provision of the procreative powers with respect for the gift of life itself, in this case the life of the endangered mother.
Yet, if she needs a blood transfusion, they expect her to forsake the gift of life and leave her 'children already produced' without a mother!
What a contradiction!

When i had my TL in 93, WTS policy was that birth control was a "conscience matter". There were several people in our congregation who also had either tubals or vasectomies once they were sure their baby making days were over for them (although one of them stopped at kid #9).
Quite frankly, as a RN, I would still counsel a JW patient that sterilization is a good option, and really nobody's business but the patient's. If they're fudging up their field service reports and think that Jehovah doesn't really give a rat's ass about it, what the hell is the difference when it comes to birth control?
If an elder ever had the audacity to ask me whether I had a tubal ligation or not, I'd tell him that he'd have to tell me whether or not he was circumcised first. End of discussion.

this weekend i went out with my lady friend.
we were talking about places that we wanted to travel to and about her birthday on march 15. we were talking about miami when i jokingly mentioned, "wouldn't it be cool if me and you could go to miami for your birthday?
" it was just a joke, but much to my surprise she told me, "yeah that would be a great idea!
Gil,
Go on the trip without any 'expectations' in the romance department, even to the point of booking separate adjoining rooms. That way your lady friend will not feel that there's any pressure coming from you regarding sex, and if she wants to go there, she will let you know in no uncertain terms.
Having said that, lots of people like to wait for "special occasions", like a birthday, to make romantic feelings known. So in the spirit of optimism, put some condoms in your suitcase, just in case.
Hope you have a great time, either way. BTW, I agree with sharing expenses for the accommodations and airfare at least. Maybe you can treat her to a special birthday dinner, as a friend. If she's not interested in a romantic relationship and only wants your friendship, she should not mind sharing the expense.
Love, Scully
