Minimus.........you're a good man,hahahahaha.

boston red sox.

I'm a born and raised Bostonian....living in Texas.
I like........
The Boston Red Sox, Celtics, NE Patriots and my BC Eagles.
A good Bagel with cream cheese. It's all biscuits and gravy down here.
REAL chinese takeout with lobster sauce. Down south is all buffet. Whats up with that ??
Sidewalks.
The Fall season. In Texas we have Spring and Summer.......( not too hot, and BLAZING )
Oh.....good drivers. I'm convinced the worst drivers reside in Houston.
so this woman that i grew up with has sent me a friend request on facebook.
we've done a bit of back and forth "how are you" chat but i haven't accepted her request.. i can see she is still a jw because she belongs to some no-blood facebook group.. i do not want to be her friend on facebook.
i consider witnesses to be bad association and i severely limit the number of jw's i have on my facebook - only close family and people that i share close history with.. so what should i say to this woman?
Accept her. If she starts to preach to you, or get all preachy on your wall with comments, simply defriend her. I have several dubs on my facebook page. I probably only speak to one regularly. He is a former bethelite, now married to a non-JW. The other, also an former bethelite, was always very open-minded. He has his four-year degree and like the first guy, makes no mention of being a JW.
The guy with the four-year degree, I'm not surprised went off to college. He was always smart, and when we pioneered, it was obvious that the whole JW scheme of things was not that 'crucial' with him.
But yes.......I limit my contact on there with UBER Dubs...you know..the ones who need to post EVERY day whether they're in service, when they're studying for the meeting, how GREAT the meeting was that day/night. Uuugh. What happened to that scripture about praying publicly and making a big scene ? Am I the only person who gets sick of that on FB ??
Accept her,but you can always de-friend her or set what you want her to see and do regarding your profile.
since spring weather is upon us - thought those of us that enjoy live music may have fun with this one !.
my favorite live musicians i have seen are follows :.
and which show or group was your favorite ?
As a dub....in my particular hall...concerts were what those who were 'slacking' did. Unless it was C & W,which I have no bones with. Not what I listen to ( there are some good songs though )
I've only been to TWO in my entire life.....yeah sad I know.
My first...John Micheal Montgomery Oct 1998 The Woodlands,Texas
My second ? Nrearly 10 years to the Month....
Stone Temple Pilots July 2008 The Woodlands,Texas
I have alot of catching up to do with all the R &B concerts,but it's a start !
everyone easily can talk about other people---the good and bad....but sometimes we don't focus on ourselves, especially the positives.. we all have strengths.
what positives do you have, perhaps things you can be proud about?.
Seriously...I can work and direct flights plans in the worst of weather and ATC traffic conditions.

duthstef,
You know anyone from Maastricht ? I know a brother from my old congo who married a Dutch sister from there and they moved back over there in 2000. They lived here a few months and then moved over there. He says he loved it. The dutch...from what I could see from my friends wife, are more educated...I think she speaks 4 languages, university educated. And yes..they seem to do well.
i was df-ed 3 years ago.
during the process nothing extraordinary happened.
everything proceeded as if according to a script.
And they know this because Jehovah sent that messege to their blackberry I'm sure
25 years ago i lived in an apartment overlooking the grounds of the local high school.. at the time i still totally believed the lie.
a lot of the dub students went to my hell.. i noticed looking out my window, that the witless kids always looked miserable and isolated.
yet in the kingdumb hell they would behave almost euphorically.. what was going on?.
From what I saw, miserable to feeling that they are missing out on alot.
My mom was a single mom and I played all sports in high school...and kept it a secret for quite a while....ahhhhhh, the power of keeping your mouth shut. Being in Texas, the high schools are rather large and being in a HS of 3500 you could not see other witnesses ever. I actually had a great childhood,as my mom was not hardcore until my last year of high school. Only got three christmas' but since we studied for like 12-15 years off and on, my mom allowed me to play sports as, I guilted her that I couldn't do anything else .Looking back I'm glad. I made a few friends. Most of whom have gone on to have great college careers and are doing great professionally and family wise. Sports and other activities for kids is IMHO great for helping kids grow socially and learning about other cultures , as you met and befriended other children/kids of socio-economic backgrounds,cultures,etc. And when you're young you could care less about those things because you're too busy having a good time with your buddies/girlfriends.
My feeling is many Dub kids are happy with the circle of friends they have as Dubs,because it's all they know, and are allowed to have. But I see many who look, and in their speech sound like they'd rather be doing things normal teen kids do. From what I can see alot who do get baptized now as late as possible..either taking a chance and moving out at 18 if they can feel they can make it or taking the dip, and bidding their time.
is it based on anything else out on the net and redone to fit the jws?.
good example of how our conscience should be trained by jah!
let's watch how we walk.
It was the same two day that a married couple gave their personal part of how they sold their house, and he quit his good paying job at the local oil refinery. They both commenced to move into an apartment and full-time pioneer.
I certainly hope he meant to say "retire' as they were both quite young...... 40's ? In this economy....ah yes...they must be the DARLINGS of the local circuit for putting Jah first......
