here is a wonderful poem, it was written by audrey hepburn, when she was requested to share her "beauty tips".
it was read at her funeral, years later, as follows:.
for attractive lips, speak words of kindness.. for lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.. for a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.. for beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it, once a. day.. for poise, walk with the knowledge that, you never walk alone.. people, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived,.
Ohh great more of that 'inner beauty' krap!!! We want something we can use!!! HAHHAHAHA

Here are some good posts from H2O here's the link and my favorite quote from the post.
"In all honesty, could you envisage a situation were the spokesman for any other religious group said, well some of are Vicar's, Priest's, Ministers etc. "screwed up" - exactly!! Moreno's understanding of good PR, is on par with Bill Clinton's understanding of what constitutes a sexual act."
i didn't but there's been a lot of talk about it on h2o and other boards.
here's the opening post on h20.. ______________________.

HOLY COW! Did you see "The Practice" on TV last night?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Man, what a bang. The whole damned program was about Jehovah's Witnesses. The one lawyer, (can't remember names but she's black) is hurt in the explosion. When all the lawyers get to the hospital, the mother shows up and says, now get this "...and doctor, NO BLOOD".
At that point, my JW wife's ears perked up. We were glued to the television. The other lawyers all go to court to try to force blood. Then it all starts coming out.
I am surprised that I am the first to post on this subject. I imagined that I would get up this morning to find the board littered with talk about it.
For those who don't know what THE PRACTICE is all about, it is a weekly, one-hour show about lawyers. It's very popular, and I know that when I go to work, it's gonna be hard to avoid the talk.
You see, I am a JW also, but of course I am different in that I am not brainwashed anymore. I am merely trapped and hoping for a way out.
If next weeks program (the show was To Be Continued) is what I hope is going to be, then the lady lawyer who was injured, (who's mother says she's a JW but she's really not because she's had an abortion etc)lives, then she will spill it all on national TV.
The head lawyer called the JW doctrine "VOO DOO"! I am hoping that this is going to really, really, really hurt the WTBTS.
I hope that she recovers and tells the whole world what a sham the Washtower Fable and Act Society is.
Oh, just one more point of irony. In an effort to prove that the unconscious and blood-needy woman lawyer is not really a JW, the head lawyer asks the mother (on the stand) if she was aware that her daughter had an abortion. The stunned mother says "NO..."
Now. The mother spends the entire show trying to convince the court that the daughter really is a JW, but if it's true, then as soon as the local elders would get a hold of the information that she had an abortion, they would disfellowship her anyway.
So. If she lives, blood or not, then she'll get the boot. What an irony that the mother can spend all this time convincing the court that her unconscious daughter is a devout JW, only to get her disfellowshipped because she's had an abortion!
I cannot, absoluetly cannot wait till next Sunday night.

in reality, whoever you are, the game's getting old.
too many new posts in too short of a time.
hopefully, no one's as ignorant as you present yourself.. if you ever decide to actually contribute to a discussion instead of instant negativity or stupidity, count me in.. until then - the term "troll" seems aptly applied to "danielle.".
hahahah, your too much Frenchy!!!

The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German,which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5-year phase-in plan that would be known as "Euro-English".
In the first year, 's' will replace the soft 'c'. Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard 'c' will be dropped in favor of the 'k'. This should klear up konfusion and keyboards kan have one less letter.
There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome 'ph' will be replased with the 'f'. This will make words like 'fotograf' 20% shorter!
In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be
expected to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.
Governments will enkorage the removal of double leters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of the silent 'e' in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.
By the 4th year, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing
'th' with 'z' and 'w' wiz 'v'.
During ze fifz year ze unesesary 'o' kan be dropd from vords
kontaining 'ou' and similar changes vud of kurs be aplid to ozer
kombinations of leters.
After ze fifz yer ve vil hav a rali sensibl ritn styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evriun vil find it ezi tu undrstand ech ozer.

depends on what you mean by "good"?.
what you are likely to find is a wide spectrum of different personalities, with the common thread of having some interest in the wbts.
what you will not find is the kind of structured, controlled environment of the kingdom hall, where many of the subjects that could be discussed here would never be raised.
I'm with you there Chuck. Maybe we can hook her up with Fred Hall!!! Ya there we go

each week on h20 this poster from oz makes comment on the current week's watchtower study.
may i commence my postings here with this post that has appeared on h20 by not looking at a scriptural teaching (so called) but a teaching of the watchtower nonetheless.
1. tertullian the first to use the word trinitas.
Hi OZ, nice on the adaptation. The flavor here's a little different here then H2O, it's more of a homey atmosphere. I like what Simon said a while back, "H2O's my battleground and JW.com's my coffee house."
Welcome and keep us enlightend.
Venice (who's sends her condolances that you have to keep going the meetings)
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.
Hey I say we have the conventions in Vegas. The flights would be cheaper for everyone and so would the rooms. Also we might be able to come up with a few ideas to gain revenuce, if you know what I mean.(gambling for any of you perverts out there.)
