  this is my third year since i signed up on jwn and i wanted to do something a bit different--a slight unmasking of sorts and greet everyone face to face.

  even with the help of a few notes, this is rambling, raw, and by no means the best personal experience video out there.

  It's humble guys like you that the Org chews up and spits out. And it's their loss, obviously, after meeting you.

  Thanks for posting this video. Loved it.

  My Breaking Point -- 11/9/14

  i have enjoyed reading your comments during the past four years.

  deep down inside, i have always been agnostic.

  the first few chapters in genesis are contradictory and differing.. no one has ever been able to answer my question: "why was satan ever created?".

  Good to meet you. Loose livestock running away is a great visual.

  took the magazines in the waiting room and dumped them in the trash.

  was a great feeling.

  to think many witnoids wont dare throw out the surplus magazines they have in stacks around the house is amazing.

  I'm a Baltimore Orioles fan, but I have to say that the Royals just plain out-played us for the division title. I would love to see them win now. I was shocked that Cain missed a catch last night. It bounced right off of his glove! He was one of the reasons that Baltimore couldn't get enough runs.

  KC is just a team that has gelled and is working really well with each other right now. They've seemed very nervous in comparison to the Giants' cool, but they are gaining confidence. I would love to see them win.

  morning-after drug - any members with thoughts?

  by berrygerry in

  internally, being a father of many children, and being present for ultrasounds and other testing, etc., i appreciate the value of life.. as i understand it, the after-morning pill essentially terminates a 1 or 2 day old conception.. are there any thoughts about this?.

  A zygote (fertilized egg) does not a pregnancy make. This occurs higher up in the reproductive tract. Until it descends and implants in the uterine wall the woman is not pregnant. A large number of zygotes never implant, anyway and are washed out with the monthly menstrual period.

  I'm so sorry for my Canadian friends. It's dominated the news in the US tonight, too.

  I'm quickly losing tolerance for Islam.

  Of course it's Fox so they take the side of the churches. They accuse the mayor's office of not respecting the boundaries of the separation of church and state. They don't seem to realize that separation of church and state was intending to protect the state from the church's influence and uphold a secular society governed by the rule of law.

  why, if you're a health care worker who's been exposed to the ebola virus, would you get on an airplane and travel right after?.

  It's true. The medical community doesn't consider 99 point anything to be a fever anymore. If it's not over 100, they don't consider it clinically significant.

  Frustrating because I feel awful with a 99.5 degree temperature. But, doctors don't seem concerned at all.
