i was one of many witness children, who studied this book in english literature class.. having re-read it as an adult it addressed so many issues i have with the organisation.

including maniputive control, the re-writing of history etc etc.

so many of the characters in the book, resembled characters i have known in the organisation.. boxer- loyalty without questioning.. squeler- a character who doesn't care about truth, and uses rhetoric of language to twist truth.. clover-who silently questions decisions, but stays loyal.. if your young, or old i would suggest reading this small book, by george orwell.

I read AF so long ago I don't remember it. I'm going to reread it.

I was able to download it to the kindle app for free as an Amazon Prime member.

Cooking With Cast Iron

by Simon in

i can't even remember what got me interested in pans, probably wanting to try cooking more and watching some cooking videos on youtube, but i kind of started wanting to get a cast-iron skillet specifically so started reading up on them.

hey, if you're going to spend $50 on something you need to study them and create a comparison spreadsheet ... right?.

not only did cast-iron look great for cooking but there are some studies that show risks to aluminium / teflon cookware ... not that the wts was "right" about aluminium, but teflon can give off carcinogenic chemicals if overheated (so what if it chips off into your food?).

I missed this when it first posted. I also love our cast iron skillets. We grew up with them when I was a child. After getting married I bought a set of them but never used them correctly until a few months ago. They were very sticky, as I wasn't cleaning and reoiling them correctly. Now we make great steaks in them.

We are becoming champions of grief. We lost twin B.

by Darkknight757 in

last week we had a reassurance ultrasound with our ob.

she was just supposed to check heartbeats on the two little ones and they were going strong!

but because she had extra time and she can be quite anal about her work (which is a good thing) she decided to take some measurements.

I am so sorry.

Your welcome Blonde. I was sitting through the WT discussion yesterday and had to come and get your take it on it. I was glad to see you posted.

Oh what a set up they are doing for next week's WT.

I'm interested to see your post for the next article, if you chose to do so (I understand if you dont).

I always appreciate your time, research and commentary.

Another big step on my journey

1987 attended the memorial for the first time, and the last time?

2016. it was a big step for me to not go last night i'm convincing myself that i really do have the strength to never return to this living nightmare of a religion.

you may recall i'm a fader my last meeting was 9 months ago and i have deflected a number of attempted visits and dozens of phone calls they now just hang up on my answering machine, as a matter of fact they did it again this morning.

Congrats!!! Such a big step not attend yhr memorial last night! I hope to get there one day soon.
