  LV101 ...

  Trained chimp Obama??? Why not porch monkey, jigaboo or tar baby?

  While you're at it, just say Michelle and their two daughters are nappy-headed ho's.

  Tell it like it is.

  Will God resurrect our beloved pets? What do you think?

  by Pallbearer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the watchtower doesn't hold out any hope for us ever seeing our beloved animals again.

  i find it very difficult to believe that god -- a god of love -- would refuse to resurrect an animal that we had become so attached to.

  over the years i have bonded with no less than four (4) dogs, all of which were/are like family to me.

  I don't know if this is unloving or not but if animals are resurrected, I hope they skip the Great Dane down the street that used to poop on my lawn so much. When I was mowing the grass and stepped into a "squishy" spot, I knew who was responsible. It was time to get the garden hose out and clean off my shoe.

  Maybe I'm not that loving or compassionate. Maybe I should "turn the other shoe" or be more forgiving.

  I just have this picture of being in paradise, singing kingdom songs, petting the lions and wolves, and then having that dog come up in front of me and taking a dump on my shoe.

  I don't know. I guess I will just need patience.

  Jehovah Banned in Singapore

  by EverApostate in

  2. beliefs

  singapore is a tiny, beautiful and economically powerful country in se asia.

  all religions are allowed there except the jehaovah's witnesses and another christian denomination.

  jws are banned because they don’t serve the military and all singapore citizens are required to serve in the military for a while.. the jws are banned in singapore since 1972. .

  it sounds like Jehovah needs to make with the frogs, locusts and bloody rivers like he did in Egypt when Pharaoh wouldn't let his people go.

  Your comment reminds me of one of the cartoons I read that often has a priest talking to God for direction:

  Just don't do anything wrong there. They do that public caning thing where you bend over and some martial arts guy takes a large bamboo thing and beats you butt until it bleeds, and then beats it some more, depending on how many strokes the judge charged you to get.

  Just a bit scary but I would still like to see the country.

  DoC ...

  As Min mentioned, very good perspective.

  I sit on the fence on this one, but I am leaning that the Dems would actually have more to gain by NOT having witnesses, even though they are publicly requesting it.

  If the Republicans block it and Bolton spills his guts in the book, I think that would have a much more negative impact and perception that they are hiding things.

  If it is indeed blocked, I think it would be a huge benefit in the election for the Dems to point out and question what the Orange Man Group is trying to hide.

  I remember this guy from a long time ago, Dom Irrera. He did a lot of comedy clubs and was on TV quite a bit.

  Listen to the first couple of minutes on this topic:

  It will be very interesting if John Bolton is questioned in the Senate.

  Things we should not have said,

  by Phizzy in

  1. social
  2. humour

  do any of you remember things you should never have said to a fellow j.w ?.

  two of mine come to mind, one was when we were out in field circus one day and my companion was complaining of knee pain, he explained, " it has a crack in it ", i replied " that explains why my bum hurts, that's got a crack in it", the other one was when a guy showed me a chef's knife he had bought for chopping, and i said " i always wanted a big chopper ".. you ?.

  OMG ... if I could tell you how many times I have said things that some considered "inappropriate", I could write a book.

  Global Entry / PreCheck at US Airports

  by RubaDub in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for those who travel, such as attend international conventions (lol, i had to add a jw thing into this thread), do you have the precheck thing for the airports?

  this is the thing where you go in a separate line and don't have to take your shoes off and do all the things that most people do.. it does cost money, about $85 for 5 years.. but for those who travel internationally, the global entry thing is well worth the money.

  for only $15 more ($100 total for 5 years) it includes precheck within the us and then entry back into the us without the typical long lines at customs.

  Just another way for the government to make money, under the guise making you safe ... The whole thing is just a scheme to collect more money from the sheep... Any terrorist organization with mediocre planning will be able to place a bomb on a plane.

  redvip2000 ...

  I see you don't understand the purpose of Global Entry / PreCheck. It is not so much about safety, IMO, but about expediting those who go through fingerprinting and a background checks to get through the lines quicker. I don't see the connection with terrorists.

  If you rarely, if ever fly, then it is not worth it. Think of it like the Disney thing where you pay a little extra for the Fast Pass or Speed Pass things to get you to the front of the line.

  It is the same idea with the Global Entry thing. You just have to fill out an on-line government form, pay your money, and they do a background check. Then you make an appointment to go to the airport, have your picture taken, get fingerprinted and answer a few questions. The airport part takes all of 5 or 10 minutes.That's it.

  Here, in the US, we go to the "bathroom". Am I taking a bath? No. We either poop or pee.

  When we go to Canada, we go to the "washroom". What are we washing? Are we taking a basket of laundry with us? No. We either poop or pee.

  In Europe, every sign is W/C (Water Closet). Are we going into that place to drink some water? No way. We either poop or pee.

  Odd as it may sound, why can't we just say what it is?
