My mom just gave me the latest WT and Awake mags last week. I haven't read any for over a year and one of the articles was on higher education so I thought it would be interesting to see what the wts had to say. Well I only read 1 paragraph, and then was bored. I felt like I was reading a childrens book.

I can't read the WT and AWAKE anymore
by Jez inhundreds of supplementary publications written by unnamed authors that can hide behind the watchtower and bible tract society and say anything without referencing it.
lately, i have been thinking that this is one of the reasons that the society does not encourage higher education.
try handing in an essay without your name on it, try not referencing your essay, try having no works cited, try to have only 1 works cited, try quoting out of context, try spewing statistics or numbers or trends in your essay with no reference or date, add ellipsis that only alert your instructor to the potential of hidden information, or try presenting as support for your thesis a third party quote.

Just sayin Howdy
by forsharry ini saw that other people had done this and i figured it would be a good way to introduce myself.
i've been reading many of the threads and let me tell you that it's comforting to read that others feel the same way i have felt about being in the organization.
i'm not sure how much i can contribute as far as delectible tidbits of information, but i have replied to a couple of threads to, if nothing else, interject some 'humor' into things.

I think I've mentioned this one before but I read magazines from back to front. I'm also deathly afraid of craneflies(mosquito eaters). I will not go into the garage on the lawn if I know they are there. I also am more afraid of dead bugs the bugs that are alive. Hmmm what else..... Oh! I never ever drink a whole can of soda. I'll take one or two swallows, and thats it. The rest is going in the garbage. I have to make tacos in a certain order... meat, cheese, olives, tomatos, lettuce, and then guac/taco sauce. If it's in any other order then it tastes gross.

Just heard from my mom that my aunt and uncle survived the hurricane. They're are living in a makeshift shelter between thier car and what left of thier house. They are out of food and only have enough water to last another day. All of the aid is being sent to New Orleans and Biloxi, but there is no help yet for the people who are stranded outside the city.

At 5$ a gallon for gas, will you modify your driving habits?
by JH inhttp://www.suntimes.com/output/news/cst-nws-gas17.html

I only drive about 3 miles to work. I suppose if worse came down worse I'd walk to work. At this point, I only put gas in my Jetta once a month so its not killing me financially. I hate to see people driving hummers and SUV's to tote thier kids around, and then complain about the price of gas.
But still I hate paying $2.70 a gallon. I remember when gas was $.89 a gallon.
