Interesting elephant comes in before grizzly. I stop before the rat. People haven't watched enough chimp shows or it would rank further down.
And not all Americans are stupid, just most of us. Canadians, Mexican s, french?

I'm Not Saying Americans are Stupid
by Simon inbut maybe they over-value their own abilities.
c'mon, imagining you could fight a gorilla, lion, elephant, or bear with your bare hands?!?.
this could be an amazing new reality tv show though ... "ok, bubba, you've just beaten a dog ... now for $16,000 do you want to fight a chimpanzee?

Tell them you are doing independent research and you will be told to limit your research to watchtower publications.
They take popular subjects being commented on by churches and plagiarize it. I did extra reading on the fornication root word which was just additional materialfrom their sources and got squelched

Pursued a career even if I d I d miss meetings for schooling and job. I fell into a career instead.
Maybe joined army. Friends who did came out grown up. Vietnam would have been the downside.
OTH. I have a good marriage, enough to live on. ( brandon is working to change that).

They already researched it once and told us. No mention of clots, fetus tissue, heart affects. But it is from Jehovah.
Waiting to see if October 1 brings more attendees and if they will find a way to still require masks.

I remember the scandal of neighbor girl wearing jeans with a zipper in front instead on the side. My interest was behind the zipper even at 8.
Riding horses makes girls horny was the story but I never benefited.
Need greaters get rid of their dogs, then miss the therapy provided. My dog is at my feet, cat asleep in a recliner.

Condolences. We are beat down by the " not grieving " BS. That said, my parents were the never going to pass away generation. They were good people. It is part of the realization of TTAT. Along with the missed opportunities, petty mean brothers.

Reasons: . It might offend someone. A beard is rarely seen in the US, though accepted in parts of Europe. You will not qualify for stage parts. ( talk about a hollow threat)
I have been complimented by neighbors, family, friends on covering my mug.
As for rare, surveys show 1/3 to 1/2 US men have facial hair. I did an informal survey at the mall, 7 of 10 had beards, and not just mustaches either.
If I shave it will offend neighbors, family, workmates, and me. Neatly trimmed,xtoo.

This ugly head just came up. Skin conditiin? Not be in school? Unamerican!? Baptism not allowed fir new guy.
The article was clear as mud. A citation on Israelite men said they had neatly trimmed beards, then cites the scripture forbidding cutting beards.
Time to block phone numbers.
