Given land and money a private cemetery is a good idea.

Its not exactly a private cemetery. It's his golf club. I can picture some errant drive and the drunk companions excitedly debating whether its gonna hit Trumps golden mausoleum and obelisk.

Also, aside from the potential tax break, being a cemetery will supposedly protect the golf course from being seized in case of bankruptcy. (which the majority of his ventures have had the tendency to fall into).

Is burying someone on a golf course tacky?

trump's first wife and mother of his children died recently.

they had her buried on his golf course.

do you think this is tacky or a savvy business move since it'll now get them some tax breaks as a cemetery?.

Initially, Donald Trump's 2007 plans to build a 19 foot high mausoleum with four obelisks on his golf course in New Jersey where he planned to be interred. However, the plans were rejected by officials who called the design "garish" and "overwhelming".

When someone in New Jersey calls your idea garish..........

Well done England!

by LoveUniHateExams in

in the women's euro tournament, england beat germany 2-1 at wembley!!!.

i'll be honest - i've never really been that interested in women's football.

no, it's not because i'm a sexist pig, it's just that i was brought up on men's football and haven't had a tv license for the past 10 years.. but this win could really put women's football on the map, at least in britain.. there has been a bit of hysteria about the nickname 'lionesses' but i think it's a great name.

Pretty shitty deal we got in Britain, eh?

No. BBC has some great programming.

"The BBC's domestic television channels have no commercial advertising and collectively they accounted for more than 30% of all UK viewing in 2013. The services are funded by a television licence."

I mostly use streaming services for TV, although I also have an antenna and occasionally watch over the air broadcast TV. It's free sorta. The price you pay is a an hours worth of TV is only about 38 mins. The other 22 mins is commercials for diarrhea pills, constipation pills, boner pills, even yet still more pharmaceutical ad's followed by a long list of side effects, car commercials, sour cream commercials, furniture store commercials, get out of debt commercials.......

Do you believe that this life is all there is

by Fisherman in

the bible records resurrections and there is orher evidence besides that gives hope.

what do you think, is there enough evidence to believe in another life?.

Fisherman:

The bible records resurrections.

The Odyssey records the blinding of the cyclops, his being sealed in a cave, and Odysseus and his men escaping by hiding under the bellies of sheep.

Assembly Dramas:They were so bad.... but.... you waited for them to break away from the monotony!

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

.

you do remember the four day assemblies... sitting outdoors being fried in the sweltering heat,getting heat stroke in the middle of july in an outdoor baseball stadium.sitting outdoors from 9:45 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. was so much fun while you wore a suit,long sleeve shirt and a tie while your brain fried.

mom's who had children to take care of,lug strollers,feed all the kids,take them for bathroom breaks and try to not faint from the heat.. the sound and audio was always breaking and barely audible from the wind,airplanes flying over and (if you attended the cicero,illinois circuit )you would smell horse manure from the horse stables next door.. you know that you are a jehovah's witness.... when the only excitement waiting for the drama... where brothers and sisters dress up in ancient cloths,fake beards,fake rocks and fake soldier uniforms and wave their hands incessantly to pretend that they are acting out a drama.the excitement was unbearable!.

"You just prayed that Bro. Franz was not the last speaker of the evening since he had very little concept of time and could easily go another half hour to 9:30PM or later."

I wonder if Franz and the other GB members actually hung around for the entire 12 hours for 8 days in a row, or just showed up in time for their talk?

My Prediction Regarding New Space Telescope That Will See Back to 100 Million Years From the Big Bang

by Sea Breeze in

a new space telescope launched a few days age that will supposedly be able to see to within 100 million years of the big bang.

wow... only 100 million years from the big bang.

that is pretty early given the 12 billion year age of the universe assigned by scholars who adhere to naturalism.

This is pretty much off-topic, but here goes. I keep quassia, wormwood, oregano oil (plus empty capsules), and ground cloves on my bedside table. My Hulda Clark zapper is at the foot of my bed. My green black walnut hull tincture is on the dining room table. And I keep flax seed oil in the refrigerator. A bag of sprouted pumpkin seeds sits in the kitchen, delicious, and stuns tapeworm. The sliced areca nut, from which I make a very pleasant tasting tea, is in my kitchen,... kills tapeworm, too. Yay anti-parasite herbs! No, I’m not vaccinated.

I like to get myself a good bleeding every now and then.
