to live a long life, keep shaving.
to find your approximate date of death, measure your telomeres.
these are the pieces of dna that protect the ends of our chromosomes and control how fast our cells age, and scientists think shortened telomeres cause early death.
I almost thought that this post was going to be about: ME, ME, ME
I don't shave everyday, I shave usually 1X or 2X a week. My skin is so senstive, and besides, I don't have alot of facial hair. I guess I'm lucky.
The thing I HATE is body hair that is showing up in places that I used to dread. Places I cannot reach with a razor. Very annoying.

well,i'm about to venture out in a snow storm ,to get to work...anybody wanna take in 3 kids and myself who lives in a warm climate?we are real quite... hehehe .
have a nice day everyone.
Shera...I wish I could tag along with you should anyone offer you a trip to a warm tropical destination.
Hmm...I wonder how many rooms SYN has - maybe we can all go there.
What's the temperature today here: - 20C brass monkey weather
It's snowing right now, and it's VERY VERY COLD. SYN, you'd need us Canucks around to keep you warm if you came up here.
I think even Frosty the Snowman, has succumbed to the snowblower, but honestly....I don't miss him.
Canucks need warmth...send it our way...soon.

looking for some jw contacts in the toronto and surrounding area.
let me know if that's you!
Hi Purplehaze. I am in Toronto. (eastend)
I have e-mailed you. Welcome to the forum. Enjoy!
this elder didn't abuse me physically or sexually.
he never intended to cause me any harm.
he really felt that he ever "knowingly" did anything to harm me!.
Geez anti-absolution. There were too many types of abuse going on.
I am not surprised at this elders comment towards you, given your personal experience (trauma) with your father.
From what I can recall, it's like...no matter what: it's somehow your fault
It's almost like the battered-wife syndrome: you deserved it, you provoked it, you initiated this behaviour so as it to take place - that the abused will wrongly take the blame for something that they DID NOT do wrong. Anything to stop the yelling, screaming and beatings. It never stops, it could have and would have continued.....and good on ya for going to Aunt Liz's place.
The abuse of your trust for confiding in him, as well as the lack of comfort and support from this elder, was evident.
Can you imagine had you been sexually abused by a member of the congregation? Perish the thought, but I think you know where I'm going with this. We all know what goes on with matters pertaining to that. I wonder how that particular elder would have handled that one?
You have every right to ask any questions you may have to this elder.
If you are seeking comfort and support, I honestly think it's the wrong place to find it.
I hope you'll remain here with us anti-absolution. Thank you for sharing your story, I am so sorry to know that you had to endure such a horrific incident.
You'll be safe and sound here .

my brother set up a study last week with an elder in the kh library in westchester n.y. for today ...with the question prove that jesus choose the wt in 1919.... and my brother told him to be ready!!!
well he didn't go but i did .. and they were waiting for us... i was very nice , but direct and i gave them no quarter.. so i start off well you got the question already where is your proof.... i pull out a wt quote , so what does the record show????
lets go over it... i came in with a shopping bag full of wt's books and bibles etc... they start panicing with what's in the bag...lol so they try to say it's a progressive study and he wants to go into the new knowledge book ... i pull one out of the bag.
Johnny cip, I admire and respect your passion with regards to your KH elder wipeout.
I wish I had that passion 20 years ago just after I left the Borg.
You know, people such as yourselves, are there at the right time and right place.
For me, when I left the borg I left everything that was associated with it completely, bible included.
There are people who need to be shown things from either a biblical perspective or from the organizations own writings; I guess it turns out to be a combination of the two.
Good job !
three men checked into a hotel room for which they paid $30.
the next day, the manager realized that the men had been overcharged.
she gave the bellhop $5 to return to the three men.
Room $30.00
Refund $5.00
Should have been $25.00 for the room.
Bellhop keeps $2.00 for self, leaving $3.00 the refund of $5.00. Add them together, you get $30.00.
It's neat how that was written, but the that elusive $1 was there all along.
tell me folks, given that most of us can now not worry about what we listen to anymore.
what are some of your favourite bands, singers or other performers?
doesn't matter what kind of music, but it'd be interesting to see what some of you are into these days.

ME?
Groups: The Constantines, The Hives, Junetile, The Judybats...(too many to mention)
Female Singers: Holly McNarland, Emm Gryner, Sarah Harmer
Male Singers: Ron Sexsmith, Hayden, Tariq, David Bowie
I could go on, but that's enough for now. Most of the stuff on here, is independent Canuck stuff, but there's a chance some of you will know them.
rock n' roll
GIZMO.....you're killing me - LMAO
i am thinking of getting a pistol and i am not sure of what kind to get.
i went to an indoor range today and tried out a glock .45 (the smaller model) and a heavier .45. i found the glock rested well in my hand but i could shoot much more accurately with the heavier (and longer barreled) pistol.
any way, i am looking for a home protection / target practice pistol and would like any input on what caliber to get.
Hey Jelly, best pistols I know of:
THE SEX PISTOLS
