if you travel a distance of 100 miles .
and the first half of the trip you go at 100 mph.
and the second half of the trip you go at 50 mph.
without looking past the 3 reply (Stan Conroy's) to this POST
I will say 50mph
1'st - 1/2 h = 50 miles
2'nd 1/2 = another 50 miles
effectively ALWAYS going 50 mph then the average is 50mph
lets see if i got this right
BTW if my Aunt had BALLS who would she be?
okay here is a list for anyone who might be interested.
i am willing to let these go for shipping cost, though if something is really worth big bucks i'd appreciate it if someone would let me know just because i can use the money.
these are available to non-jw's only, and i will only sell if you post a message to that effect.
can't you get the 2002 of the WT library on CD for free ?
of course it may have "revised" information in it. Remember Animal Farm?
my friend was counseled for having a bad attitude because he wore white socks w/ his suit.
you're too smart. it's going to get you into trouble
lately is observed some small growth in wts troops.
any idea what is causing it?
i've heard that an age of baptized new members has dropped and 9/11 makes an impact.
one -goin' to the meetings is the ONLY reliable way to get your mags now, right? so while you're there you might as well participate more fully or make them participate.
two -every time world events even have a semblance to prophecy being fulfilled or things become dramatically changed (9/11, economic downturn, etc. ) there is an increase.
three -they must be scaring the shit outta them again.
we have noticed more and more that our middle son is stealing.
it was just little things before.
but the other day we found a $50 note in their room.
you will have to take a moral ground.
maybe he doesn't see the wrongness in it.
perhaps YOU may WANT to do something WRONG, in FRONT of him. something harmless and not detrimental. maybe the shock of that will teach him a moral lesson. then talk about why it's wrong, reason on it, not just "It's wrong, that's why," etc.
take $50 worth of HIS stuff from him, maybe he will say "you can't do that" Don't say "why not, you do it!" Just plain act casual about it like there is nothing wrong with it. he may come to his own conclusion due to this obvious conundrum and come to the solution himself. Say something like "oooh, i like this, i'm going to take this," ACT sneaky about it too. Of course it has to be properly orchestrated or it may have the reverse affect, that of encouraging him TO steal.
extreme measures. this will take a some talent. i've never done it, just brainstorming here
have a dog or cat he loves? make it disappear. someone took it, you/he may NEVER see it again. then tell him you found it again. some kid took it. don't point out a kid (your stepson may start throwing rocks at the kid) make things intangible. but the fright of it may help him appreciate what he may be doing to others.
ifin' that doesn't work there's always Hell and Gehenna

do you think that you will see your dear loved ones come back to life in a ressurection of some sort or do you think there is no hope of such a thing?
yes. i believe it.
seriuosly, i have mentioned this before. if we can "replicate" human beings in the various media we have now (records, tape, CD, DVD, holographic storage devices that store info in the ?terraflops? and ad infinitum) and at the pace of tecnilogical progression we, HUMANS, will be able to "resurrect" people. if we can do it, or some day do it, then for God it is a breeze. i guess of course, you've got to believe in God. if not, then, i guess you are shit-outta-luck.

just stumbled across this, i hope no-one minds me posting it.

impressive pic
but where's bethel?
and ALL the bros. who helped out?
well, i just got home and im piping madd.. im laughing about it as well though because i outsmarted them at their own game and got a rant off my chest.. heres what happened.
an acquaintance i used to go to the hall with.. who is also 3 years younger than me asked me for money about 6 months ago.. at the time, i loaned him $50 to get the tires on his car fixed.
in that time period, not only did he move out of his parents house to an undisclosed location because he decided to stop going to the kh.. but i also da myself in that time frame.. due to the fact he moved out, i havent been able to reach him.. i tried calling his parents home to discover his current location or at least to tell them if he contacts them, to be sure to have him reach me because he owes me money.. no response.
my bro. DA'ed himself years ago, because of ALL tthe BS he kept getting. he reinstated himself eventually but anyway i digress.
a bro. in the cong owed him @$200 well this bro sent/gave him two checks. both of which bounced twice (a total of 4 times, the bank tried twice, BTW it's against the law to knowingly write a bad check).
so my bro. contacts that PO of the bro's cong. and my bro is trying to exaplain the situation. the PO interrupts him adnd says, "your DA, aren't you?" my bro says, "yeh, but what's that got to do with anything?" of which the PO promptly hung up.
later this jip-the-people bro. is talkin' to an elder in my hall (at the time). and tells the elder there "so-and-so (my brother) tried cashings checks i gave him and thet bounced. it cost me @$66 so shouldn't i be able [justified] from taking it out of the $200 i owe former bro DA?" the IDIOT elder says, "yes."
so the bro. tries to convince my bro he now owes him ONLY $134. eventually i think my bro finally got ALL his money back. but what a bunch of idiots.
my dad has lost literally thousands to the bros lending money out. bros who NEVER come back and say. "thanks. here's the money back."
say good-bye to the $50. but invest another $50 in a punching bag with this hobo-witnesses face emblazoned on it.
i was watching the news last night.
the latest word from the war front is that we should be able to peaceably work out our differences with north korea.
as humiliating as it will be for us to kiss north korea's ass, we will do so because they do have the ability to nuke our west coast.
yep.
the USA ONLY has good bombs though.
they ONLY kill bad children.
i was looking at a museum down here in DC (american history) the nuke bombs killed @213,000 JAPS. if ONLY 25% of those were children that's about 53,000 kids.
and horrible and deplorable though it is/was WE dare call terrorism killing @3000 in the twin towers. what about @213,000 civilians?
the USA aren't the bullies of the world, they ARE the terrorists of the world.
look at what they are doing down in ?Argentina? a democratically elected president and the USA is creating pressure to remove him, because he's ONLY got @28% favor. Reagan had that low a rating at one time. this is info i heard from public radio.
environmental, economic, political, and military control. WE do it all.
instead of the USA or any other country seeing itself in a world-wide community they ONLY see their OWN interests. ALL with their OWN sovereignty.
during your lifetime or after you pass away, what do you want your legacy to be?
what do you want people to remember about you?
that my children love[d] me.
