Hello and welcome to the board.
You have come to the right place...
you have just won 100,000,000 in the lottery!
what would you do next?
I would get my Austic son all the help he needs.Of course by a house and a new car..and help my family out as much as I can.
be honest if you know it.
and yes, we are all aware of how insignificant this number can ultimately be.
but i'm still curious so please share.
hmmmm,should I say mine,people will think I'm a liar as well.I had many tests when I was a child and I always scored above average.When I was in school ,I failed at times.,I was bored and I always felt like I was going to sleep.The teachers couldn't figure out why I wasn't on top.On a test I scored 160..... but I had problems in school.... that confuses me as well.Well really I don't care if anyone believes me .I don't like to tell too many people...they are like..yeh right .YOU can't be THAT smart.
I't doesn't mean a whole lot ither..I'm working in a grocery store with a grade 12 education....it sure got me somewhere.

wow...i just heard a loud bang out side my office.
a car crashed into a parked car.
just called an ambulance.looks pretty bad.maybe friday the 13th is bad luck.
A girl from work today was in a car accident,she is ok tho..thankfully.LOL and I had some cranky woman cussing at me..she sure did like the F word.I LOVE working with the public.
I'm glad it wasn't you too, Ruby.
there are always a few tender hearted, who know that shunning is stupid and keep on talking to df'd people, when no one is looking.
are there still a few who keep on talking to you, even if you are df'd?
i'm sure that elders wouldn't shun you if you talk to them, so why do others have to shun you?
I DA myself about 11 yrs ago now,and I have some people still saying hello to me.I'm not sure if they still go themselves,I just don't ask them.
Well,my sister in law and my first daughters father are JW's and still talk to me.My daughters father does not go out of his way to have a friendly conversation with me, we just have parental ties beween us.My sister in law,still has visits and we go out once inawhile.For the rest of them,they look at me and turn their heads as fast as they can.Not my loss.
first of all i made a retraction on my request for help, you people who have attacked me have ignored it.
secondly i made a public apology to simon, you people who have attacked me have ignored it.
those of you know who i am talking about, i publically ask that you stop the personal attacks and leave me alone.
Its ok to think someones arguments are nonsense,but calling them belittling names and hurting someone with personal attacks,is just trying to upbuild yourself.If I think something is nonsense I enore it.The last thing I want to do is hurt someone more,I think many of us here have been hurt enough.I'm not going to pull and JW on any one here.

One outfit,I tore up and made a hallowe'en costume..I made a roman outfit...looked nice too
The other ones are soooo modest,I would never wear again.the others I threw away.

SNIFF SNIFF sighhhhhhhh nobody loves me
jk.... i know i care
for those of you trying to sneak out the back door without being dfd or dad...and plan to do holidays, please remember that the jws are tightening their grip on detractors and those who think they can leave without consequences and they will come to your door christmas morning to try to catch you!
i have heard of this countless times since leaving in jan 97. keep everything that might incriminate you away from the front door!!
and that includes your kids whom they will ask direct questions to!edited by - lovesdubs on 12 december 2002 14:23:44.
