that sounds about right .. New Zealanders dumb enough to leave a mine shaft uncovered and a JW lad dumb enough to fall into it. Kiwis really are very slack when it comes to safety. Hippikon don't lick that steak knife! ooo too late .. i gus thet'll teech ya

Sorry Jan, I sped read the frogfood.
you might find it interesting to compare the tactics below to some of the recent flame wars we experienced in the past on this site to see how easy it is to get sucked into this game and why it takes days to end.
you can also see why it is pointless to play with those hooked on playing the game.. i took this information from this website but printed out the main ideas below:.

Hi Escargot,
well you've convinced me to ignore the megafauna ancestors of my friendly neighbourhood wombats .. i guess Noah chose small ones for his boat ride. (God knows how they got from Ararat back to Southern Australia though)
Just one question if you please. Any of these surveys American?
unclebruce who only trusts Australian and British scientists.
i just read this in yahoo about the huge economic problems that argentina is facing: http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/ap/20011219/wl/argentina_economy.html.
this is something that you know said that was going to happen and that it would be the start of future economic downfall all over the world.
YoYo,
YoNo couldn't predict yesterdays weather. He reminds me of old John Stone a founder of JW's in my home state. Before WWII John and his wife worked running Rutherford's radio 5KA. (now a heavy rock station) They pioneered, never had children and he was the most penny pinching bloke i ever met. He watched every movement of the stockmarket for 'a sign', he sliced bread so thin you could read a paper through it, he used old Awake's as toilet paper, he and his wife died 20 years ago leaving a huge bank balance which was willed to the boys in Brooklyn.
Got a will YoNo?
unclebruce
PS: When is YoYo not YoNo?
just some suggestions really!
i would like to attend a meeting at the kh down the road with my boyfriend as he has never had any dealngs with the dubs and is intereted as to what they do so thought it an idea to take him to a meeting... now my questions are these... what should we wear?
i don't have a brown suit anymore... and all my ties are rather flashy... also is there a smoking section in the hall these days?
ROTFL at the smok'n bibleman in the sequined gown.
why did you become a dub?.
a hope for something better?.
an acceptance that your parents religion was the truth?.
Parents joined when i was 6 or 7 thus the 'incultcating' began.
Left about 23 years later with a shattered life and an almighty headache.

someone i know recently attended one of the kingdom ministry schools for elders.
he indicated that after one session, he approached a speaker and told him how much he enjoyed the man's speech.
the speaker replied, "jehovah's blessing.".
sorry Bathory but when I was a JW i kidded myself that all Jonnadubs were created equal (of course now I've seen Focus class list I know better ;)
cheers, unc.

LOL Alan,
"Jehovah's blessing" sounds much like "bless you my son" but presumptuous to the point of blasphemy. Is the speaker in question one of the braindead remnant who believes he's in direct comunication with Jehovah already? Does he know what religion he's in? It's a shaking head wonder but no big surprise in JW land. Did your friend then berate the speaker like we lowly ones would have in the old days or did he let the silly b*****d 'get away' with it? I get the feeling even light constructive critisism is not appreciated by those climbing the greasy power pole nowerdays.
That would have freaked me out more than the English bro who used to annoy with "pray for me" whenever we parted or my pioneer partner who'd casually thank Jehovah for everything from the toothpaste to the tomato sauce.

is there a cure for the cancer that is growing on this board?
i discuss this below and think there is and maybe you will like it.
if you didnt know it already, im a veteran of web-based communities and i can trace my virtual roots to living in the first generation of online hangouts (which were direct dialup electronic bulletin boards before the web was around) like the well and echo.
G'day SirFred,
You're looking nice and fluffy today. You are quite right of course, a few grumpy old men do not a good board make but this place has a fantastic mix of longwinded smartarses and stubby short prickers.
I think the hurley burly is great even when i get worn down by tarbabies who must have the last say.
