I am amazed at the conceit and petty gossip and foullanguage andback biting that goes on. Believe me I have
tried hard to like them all and be a good work mate.

ok i posted a couple weeks ago that my uncle was dying.
i just found out today that he passed away on february 28th (yeah i know, i'm always the last to know these things).. ok, here's the problem - his funeral is scheduled for march 15th.
they couldn't have it this saturday, apparently there is something going on at gillead and people that would be attending the funeral will be there instead.
Unfortunately I have prior commitments for that day that I cannot break. I am very happy to have had a chance to say good bye to Uncle ****.
My thoughts will be with you and your family that day.

How does that work?
i understand that the zone overseer is scheduled to give a talk in canada.
many assembly halls and being booked to receive the telephone hook-ups.
do you think that he's coming because he found out that some of our youth are attending university, and he's coming to kick our canadian butts?
I saw three Zone visits while I was in the big house in Georgetown. Pretty much non-events, just big egos
for jim penton.
who is having a heart by-pass operation today.. he is a good friend.
written many books exposing the watch tower.
Most definitely. Consider it done.
Also a few good thoughts for my favourite Granny too!! Just because.
Uzzah
if it was me, i'd rather have the truth up front.
i went through an experience where someone didn't tell me the truth about a situation, thought that by not being totally honest, my feelings would be spared.
maybe at the time, they were, but afterwards when i found out the truth i was deeply hurt and confused.
Well you are all obviously much smarter than the people referenced in the scenario above.
He tried lying, she wasn't listening. He gave in, they got married and are now going through divorce proceedings.
Obviously there were other issues than the drunk liaison, and I don't know how the truth would have worked out for them, but his trying to sugar coat it, certainly wasn't the solution.

Jeff and his wife are residents here in the Toronto area. I got to know him a little through his sister and brother inlaw (his wife's family).
He opened an amazing litle venue (Healy's) downtown Toronto and I was fortunate enough to catch him jamming with some of the rock greats.
He is a testament to the ability to fight so many obstacles.
Likely best remembered for Angel Eyes but he was about the only good thing about Patrick Swayze's bomb Roadhouse. (His club name was actually Healy's Roadhouse" but most locals just called it Healys.)
RIP and go jam with other lost music greats
apparently, if a jw's child is only at risk of brain damage, that's ok, as long they aren't in immediate danger of dying.. ya' just gotta love that wt lawyer, shane brady.
he has no scruples with the real truth or with dead or brain-damaged babies, after all...he truly represents...in the most accurate way his clients and masters -- the gb of jehovah's witnesses.

Shane should have stayed in the bakery.
One day karma will catch up with him for his bloodguilt.

Here's a scenario:
Two people. One interested and the other has repeatedly said no, just friends. Both are very attracted to each other but the guy realized she wasn't for him.
One night a group of friends go out, everyone gets fairly drunk. Flirtation leeds to physical contact which leads to an intimate session back at the woman's home. Throughout the time back at her place, she professes her love over and over.
To complicate it further, they are neighbours.
Honesty is she is not relationship material for him but is very sexy and truth is little head won out over big head. This leaves her feeling like a piece of meet that was used.
How does one honestly tell a woman who is a casual friend, that it was just a drunken mistake?
Truth or a lie to leave her dignity and possibily the friendship intact?
