Bet they didn't register their Sparlock doll either. Maybe someone could register the Sparlock character and make them recall all the DVD's.

Windows 8 beta, the tiles interface sucks
by moshe ini downloaded and installed windows 8 beta on a six year old laptop to check it out.
i found out i don't like the new graphical tiles interface at all.
maybe i am just stuck in the old windows format and don't like change.

Cuckoo: thanks for the tip. I'll check out Libre.
I don't know about everyone else, but I'm a bit tired of the 'upgrade' process with MS. Look for new drivers, get frustrated looking for new drivers, spend bucks updating favorite software programs, get irritated finding out that a special piece of hardware will not work at all under the new 'best of the best' proffered by MS.

What is even more intriguing is what they don't show the elder body that is sent to the society? I have seen cases where self serving CO's sent ex parte communication to Crooklyn; the blindsided local body was unable to effectively defend themselves to onesided half truths.
Slimboy: lowly publishers would categorically be denied any access to such 'confidential' information.

Moshe, I agree with your observations. I'll sit this one out for now til I'm forced to move on. MS is taking a great risk with this release. They should have learned with Windows ME and Vista.
I'm just as frustrated with the constant changes. Just when you think you've learned where all your favorite shortcuts are, they change the OS and move everything. The ribbon in Office is just as frustrating. Some of my favorite functions are still hiding, fortunately I found a little app that gives me back the old menu. I still like Wordperfect, but have been forced by the market to also use Office.

They left 2 magazines in my door last weekend. I tried to burn them but they wouldn't burn, they ran out the door with the smurf.

....and he laughs at his own jokes quite amused with himself.
I've used many "secular" books to lift nice stories and illustrations. "Hot illustrations for youth talks" was one, and there were a couple other similar titles. Some years ago there was a CD put out by a brother in California I believe that had a great collection of illustrations. I still have the CD but it won't run on my 64 bit Win7.
I remember some of the brothers in my cong. being quite jealous that I could always come up with something to put in my talks to liven up some of the dried up stuff we had to serve.

I'm surprised no one mentioned this interesting self effacing look at expressions by a dub, "Hyperglossary of American English Hacker Theocratese"

exJW artist,,, amazing paintings, and heart-warming video. :))
by talesin ini came across this artist in my internet travels .... his paintings are just,, well, you have to see them for yourself!
it's abstract expressionism at its finest, and easy to relate to the symbolism, especially as explained in the vid.
many of you, reading this, may find joy and release in expressing yourself in artistic mediums; here's what can happen if you 'go for it'.

I hope he finds peace. The sadness I feel from his expressions and demeanor make me hurt for so many others like him that are wrestling within as a result of the Jdub influence.

ex Bethelites: Chuck Lebensperger?
by Unlearn ini may be misspelling this guys name, but while i was in patterson doing long-term temporary (before i got accepted longer and moved to brooklyn bethel), this guy was my table head.
he seemed to be really arrogant.
his attitude towards me was very condescending.

I attended a seminar some time ago in Orlando Fl where he was an intircate part of a presentation to flesh out money via the Planned Giving arrangement. There was a whiz bang Powerpoint presentation that was used to show how wonderful annuites were for the giver and the Borg. We were supposed to be so impressed that we would cough up some money and also help refer any other well healed folks towards piling up the bucks.
At the time I thought: They can use fancy computer graphics to ferret out money but heaven help us if we used any thing with flash in a public talk.
He is/was a millionaire as one of the above posters mentioned. I believe he was also part of the CoHi shill company that Crooklyn used to buy up real estate around Brooklyn.
