Irish Poteen - Anyone tried it?

by New Worldly Translation in

i'm quite into spirits & liqueurs at the moment and always like to try a new tipple.

this irish poteen 90% stuff has piqued my interest but i was wondering if anyone had ever tried it and what was it like?

the strongest spirit i've had before was an austrian drink called stroh which wasn't that nice really and traded taste in favour of strength imo.

I consumed one glass from the little brown jug(a gift from Ireland). I experienced "lost time." lol, never again.

have you found some new band or artist that you would reccomend we listen to...for this to work we would need to know what style of music you normally listen to and then we can know if its what we would enjoy...eg.

i like pink floyd...genesis...yes...etc.....................and have just found mercury rev......brill

I find nothing current of much interest so what is old has become new for me.

Corruption in Iraq ... why the cover-up ?

by Simon in

i think it's because people high-up have their sticky fingers in the pie.. when the two whistle-blowers sued custer battles on behalf of the u.s. government?under a u.s. law intended to punish war profiteering and fraud?the bush administration declined to take part.. attorney general alberto gonzales why the government wasn't backing up the lawsuit.

because this is a "seminal" case?the first to be unsealed against an iraq contractor?

"billions of taxpayer dollars are at stake" based on the precedent it could set, the iowa republican said.. the administration has harshly criticized the united nations over hundreds of millions stolen from the oil-for-food program under saddam.

the cult of four "just imperfect" men.

(please move on to the next thread, fluffers.

move on!

Excellent piece of work Farkel. Many thanks.

They were always looking for "new" light, which hopefully, would be better light than the existing crappy light.

The brainwashing around the "Schiavo" case...

by Brummie in

up until this evening i had thought teresa schiavo was in an unconcious state, lying on a bed with just a machine keeping her alive.

how wrong was i?

i saw her smiling and showing awareness of her surroundings.

The thing that disturbs me the most regarding this case is the lack of a signed and witnessed living will written in Terri's hand. There is no way to really know what her wishes were. Apparently though the people she expressed this to provided a convincing enough testimony to satisfy the courts. Nobody but nobody would choose to exist the way Terri is being forced to but do not let her die this way. End it now if it's "so right." End it now if you have no doubts. If it's so right load the syringe and get it done. It's obscene to allow this woman to die like this. Bastards!!

I wonder if in the future someone will point to this case and petition the courts that "Dad in a nursing home" told me a few years ago that he didn't want to live this way so quit feeding him. Yeah, that'll work.

Poor Terri.

The Social Structure in the Congregation

by Mary in

jw
friends

ever notice how the "happiest people on earth" are also the most class-oriented?

to say that jesus said his followers should all be on equal footing, it's incredible how much the r&f witness is not on equal footing.

the social structure in the congregation is more complex than the blueprints of a nuclear warhead, but just so that you "remember your place", see if you can find where your niche was/is:

Numero cinco here. Good thread Mary!

Tough day -- my mom died today

by cruzanheart in

poor thing, she's had alzheimer's for about 10 years and the last year she's been on hospice care because she's been so close to death.

the past few months she's been slowly filling up with water -- they gave her lasix (not sure of the spelling) to relieve the edema and it worked, sort of.

last weekend she actually looked a little better.
