Hi Ashi; that really upset me today - but I have just heard on the news that the warning shot they were supposed to give was forgotten and they fired into the car killing the women and children...horrific times.
This whole war leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
so, how long would you hang a pheasant for before you thought that it was ready to eat?.
a day?.
3 days?.
Hi Eman; I don't shoot mine; i'm given them- but I always fill the cavity with pork, beef and mushrooms as it's too dry and dos'nt go too far otherwise.They freeze pretty well too.
i finally broke down yesterday and "did something".
i did manage to last until about 5 pm, doing nothing.. i drove down to a homebrew supply shop and bought my first beer-making kit.
i've read the directions several times, as well as done some research on the net so i feel fairly confident that i can do it.
I attempt it on a regular basis, it never works and always tastes really crap.
The last time I did it I did'nt close the tap properly, put it in the airing cupboard and 40 pints leaked through the ceiling while we were away for the weekend. Not only did I have no beer, I also had to mop it up, clean the carpet, dry out the joists and repaint the ceiling.
I grow my own hops and keep trying to make it taste better by adding them to it; but it's still only drinkable after a bottle and a half of wine.
So no tips here ( apart from make sure you have a couple of bottles of wine handy on the big day )
i was just wondering what was being said at the meetings these days following the iraq/un situation.
are they trying to link the situation up to any 'prophesies' while getting their troops fired up and ready for the end?!
or is all this just seen as part of the last days generally.just curious as i don't get to hear the preseentations at the door and seem to be being shunned again , just wondered if this pointed to anything that's been advised from the platform lately.what's the mood like in the society in light of the conflict?
Hi Simon, you can adjust me anytime baby
That was an interesting 'armies' quote- nicely slipped into the situation- the writing dept could do with you.
I remember being told that the mount is only 70 feet high and the plain too small for the battle; they've never put in a suggestion for another venue have they?
Mulan- they've made that Babylon statement so often and it's in the literature in black and white ; you're right- they'll have to stick to that one! The likelihood of that happening is so far fetched they surely must be wondering about how they are going to make the time scale seem feasible now- I know they've moved the goal posts regarding 1914, but even they can't expect their members to keep in expectation for much longer.
Archangel,just give them enough rope...they'll not dissapoint you...
Outlaw, I expect there are alot of frightened people out there ready to take the magazines- you're right- this conflict will be a nice little earner as well as getting people in the right frame of mind for future calls and religious terror tactics.They've been swarming around my area lately, and seem to coming out of a lot of houses , not just standing at the door.
Random; let's hope that as your list grows the realisation may dawn for more people
Isp, hi- i'm fine- how's your lovely family? I think you're right regarding 911 etc- they can afford not to mention it now as they've given up on hard prophesy as Simon said and are very unwilling to commit compared to when I was studying- they just seem to play the 'no one knows' card now- but i'm sure the talks from the platform must be quite excitable at the moment.
Blondie thanks for that- who the hell is Bruce Cook and why is he talking to the papers- that's a new tactic is'nt it? I see what you mean- neutrality with an edge of politics and some personnal opinion thrown in... I can't help feeling he'll get a chat from others about that interview .
The WTBS has already stated that the seventh head is the Anglo/US dual power.They say that this alliance will continue into the time of the end- in the territories that the modern day witnesses first became established.
Bush mentioned 'peace and security' five times in his address to the world when military action began- Bush seems keen to announce that state and may actually declare peace and security when he's dealt with his next project, Israel. It would be very interesting to see as a consequence of the situation the UN is strenghtened as predicted in the revelation book . I'm just hoping they'll stick their necks out and get fired up to preach a huge campaign crying an imminant end to the world and loose face with their bible studies. Fingers crossed.

i saw a fight break out on the platform between an elder and a unbelieving husband who accused the elder of f---ing his wife.
he then threw the lectern on the floor and pushed the elder.
it was cool.......
I remember a Watchtower study about ( not ) Slowing down in old age.
An elder's wife answered and spoke about ' as you become older everything slows down and you get limp...' she glanced at her husband and the whole place erupted as he reddened and sank into the floor- it was the best meeting I ever went to- in the end people we setting eachother off again and again, crying with huge painful sobs of laughter, the poor woman did'nt even know what was so funny .
The strangest was at a convention.We were told by two attendants as we filed in to the loo to pee, that we had to 'hurry up and only pull the chain if absolutely necessary'
eg everyone will know who craps and who dos'nt... some kind of bowel monitoring initiative perhaps ?!!If you took longer than about 30 seconds they banged on the door and shouted stuff like 'come on, come on...' weird or what?!

Hi expat and Dakota,
I can see your point of view and I will be the first to praise Bush and Blair if there are no civilian casualties and Saddam surrenders and the Iraqi people have help to set up a democratic government..
but I can't see it happening.
Two Iraqis were speaking today on the radio and made some excellent points.They brought up the incident that happened during the Gulf war.
There was a SPONTANEOUS uprisingby in Iraq; the very kind that the US say they want.But the war was brought to an end 24 hours after the uprising had started and the US stood by while Iraqi gun ships systematically massacred 300,000 people in three weeks. The problem was that it was spontaneous- they wanted control over the situation; they want to be the ones to dictate where and when an uprising would happen- that shocked me.
It was also pointed out that there are over 400,000 Iraqis in exile and none have volunteered to fight perhaps showing a lack of confidence and unwillingness to support a Nation that allowed, for it's own means, the death of 300,000 of the very people it was claiming to 'free'.There may be problems getting the Iraqi people to accept help from the US to start the process. The US also supported Saddams party in 1963, and seem to have a clear concience regarding thir dealings with him and a very short memory.
Hopefully it won't last long - it's been named here as 'The Battle of Blair's Bush' English sattire always hits the button !

It dos'nt expatbrit because the use of force if he did not comply was only supposed to be used after consultation and approval with the UN . It was put in as a possible allowable option NOT as an obligation, that resolution was to be taken incontext not to be used seperately as a licence for any one (or more) countries to take the matter into their own hands.
They are behaving like the WTBS , picking and choosing sentences to 'prove' a point without taking into account the meaning behind surrounding statements. Most can see through their double speak.
I would like to know when the US and Britain will sort out the problems in North Korea . And when will they liberate all the other oppressed peoples of the world..oops, that was the first ploy we used to get support; when that did'nt work we tried to twist resolutions to fit the agenda.
The problem with this kind of action is the aftermath.The world does not have a good record of looking after the nations left after a leader has been opposed.They tend to shoot and run- life id no better now for many people after having had help from other nations, or the UN for that matter.If they do continue with this madness do they really think oppsession will end in Iraq? There must be another way.There is also the problem of Iraqis being too scared to stand against Saddam due to threats of death, and the chilling message from Blair tonight that there will be casualties but they are 'unavoidable' , very sad. they know what Saddam has, we kept records of what we sold him why not subract what has been found and then they'll know exactly what he has.
