Your fiance!? You aren't married? Have you spoken to the elders about this yet?
LOL
Just kidding dude, congratulations!!!!!!
I'll get the cigars!
i've been a sorry excuse of a poster lately, so i'm not really in tune with what's going on with the board, but i still know enough people here to make an announcement: foxy, my fiancee, is pregnant!.
so it happened a couple of years before we were planning it, before we could even get married, before i've finished my postgraduate degree -- but so what?
we're financially sturdy enough to pull it off, i'll be able to complete the degree and get a good job, and no amount of financial anxiety seems to offset the excitement i feel to be having a child.

here are a few notes i took at the friday session of the 2001 "teachers of god's word" district convention.
i thought i would share these upbuilding theocratic point with my new friends, along with my thoughts as i was listening to the program.
1st instruction of the day: sing loudly and listen to the prayer!
Thank you so much for posting your notes. I eagerly await more. This is the first time I've really heard anything from conventions since my d'fing. It's really interesting how things that used to make me feel so spiritually upbuilt, now sounds like a load of BS designed to keep the sheep in the pen.
Please post more!
Thanks
"Forget the tribe, my pants have spoken."
at this late, middle stage of my life, i've started wondering, now that i know what i know, about the things in my life that i "lived" with.
having been raised all my life in the "borg" i have known nothing else.
when questions began forming years ago, it started me thinking.
Being raised in the borg, I (and my wife!) can attest has had major psycological effects on me.
What's really cool, is that until I found this board, I had no one to who understood what I had grown up in. I'm glad we are all "emotional retards" together.

can't we all just get along!!!???.
seriously, what the hell is happening to everyone?
it seems like every thread ends up in a fight!

Seriously, what the hell is happening to everyone? It seems like every thread ends up in a fight! I enjoy being online as much as the next guy, but if all we can do is fight in here, then we should ask ourselves one question. Do I have a life?
Lighten up guys, jeeezz.

with all of the discussion going on on the board lately about "all jw being ordained ministers," i thought i'd point out something that may be new to a lot of you.. your local congregation has wbts id cards which states the 'cardbearer is an ordained minister.
' they won't volunteer these to you, i had to reg pio for two years before i got mine.
however, they can come in handy when traveling!
LOL...I've used mine to make money! People who know me know that there's no way in hell that I'm an "ordained minister". I've made so many wagers with it. LOL

ok.. i know i've been a bit of a buster in the past, but this is for real.
there is a site out there, and apparently a demand, for modified housepets.
in a nutshell, what these ahem... [people] do is take a kitten, sedate it, insert the poor thing into a glass bottle with air holes drilled into it, and run tubes into it to feed it, and tubes into it to take care of everything else.
WOW! Kitten in a jar! That's great! I wonder how long the shelf life is? I'm sure that my pantry will be full now. Kitten is soooo good with a little sweet and sour sauce! It's great that I can stock up now...because after about 1/2 an hour, you're hungry again!
You people who are truly upset about this...I bet you are the same ones who used to run to elders and cry because someone offended you.
Dark, you seem to br more concerned with animal cruelty than human cruelty. You are the one who is warped. You kiss your mother with that mouth?

this is sort of a take-off of the "what should the wt do" thread.. i need to get together a board of directors and elect a president and officers.
we need to figure out a doctrine, a manifesto, and a set of disciplinary rules.
we need to figure out a way to fund our new movement.
OH my God! I can't believe that I'm just now seeing this!
Ok TR, I want to be "The Coruptor". I'll be in charge of distributing illegal narcotics and promoting fornication. This way, they will have serious sins to confess to PLH and will have to make big monetary donations to redeem themselves. I can even turn our assemblies into rave parties!
P.S. Promoting fornication means that I will have to suffer through sleeping with many many women. This will be a difficult job, but I think I can hack it.

now this is a neat subject!!
i am a genealogy freak, and have researched my family back to the middle ages and beyond, on both sides.
i so much want to know about them, and what they looked like, and how they lived, that i have dreamed it.
If any of you have ever seen "Crossing Over With John Edward", he tells everyone to pay close attention to their dreams because this is a method that our loved ones can use to communicate with us from the other side.
I've never had any dreams like this but that doesn't mean that it isn't real. Of course, I've never really had anyone close to me die either.
It's possible of course that John Edward is a crock, but his mediation looks real enough to me.
