how do i load a 20" floor buffer in the back of my pick up alone without killing my back?

serious question.

i just bought a buffer to use in refinishing some oak floors.

lol if it was the propane buffer i could tell you easily how to get it into anything shy of a monster truck...... unfortunately you got the heavy ass electric one...... there is just no easy way for that one

propane you just run the nose up about two feet away from your tail gate and then lift the handle and twist it around untill the rear wheel just HOOKS the tailgate....... then you grab the aluminum front shround and pick that bastard up all the while pushing it into the bed of the truck. ive loaded them into vans into trucks....... even on a trailor or two lol.

the electrics i always had to manhandle

Yesterday my father informed me that he will shun me...

but only if a judicial committee tells him to.. if they say i'm inactive and let me be, he can still talk to me.. it's meaningless, because i would never meet with a jc, but he let me know where he stands.. he's dead to me.. i'm not hurting.. lost tons of respect for the man.. i told him he was brainwashed and left him without saying goodbye.. to no longer live for his approval was liberating, but this is even better.. i told him that i couldn't do that to my son.. his response?.

unconditional love is a lie.. you only get unconditional love from a dog.. sick, brainwashed, emotionally bankrupt man.. p.s.- not looking for cyber hugs.

just sharing the experience for others going through similar things and for lurkers to see what this cult does to people.. regards,.

I understand the gravity of all this stuff but the idea about when someone is older and needing after dinner care as a way of revenge goes over my head!

as revenge........... no...... but what happens when the cult they put their faith in dumps them as to much trouble?

it happens..... they get to the point they cant care for themselves.... they are poor without retirement(1975) and have shunned family for years if not decades... the witnesses know they wont be able to attend meetings anymore and if they go to a facility they still cant be connected via phone... so they leave them to the care of the family they shunned at the cults direction. maybe they will visit them while their in service and leave a magazine in the lobby so they dont have to stop their time....... maybe.

the cong i went to was one that would go alot further than most but even they let people go to homes and then visited them rarely. ive even seen it where the sick person STILL refused to associate with someone they have been shunning....... to their own detrement or even death.

personally........ if you shun me.... fine...... but i dont have to put up with your sh**. if you cant eat with me then stay the F*(&^ away. but i understand the brainwashing........ so if they got their heads out of their asses and realized that all that time they spent in the minestry has been wasted.... and all the time the spent isolateing themselves from me and mine.......... was also time wasted....... then i would be happy to be of assistance.

if however they want my assistance.......... yet want to continue shunning me........ i honestly got better things to do... like play with my son whom they have spent almost zero time with. would i refuse to help.... nah id help but i would help on my own terms........ i would see to it they had the help they needed but i wouldnt be there unless they specificly asked to see me. and even then if i was being shunned......... good bye. if my parents wanted me to be their POA and wanted me to respect their wishes about no blood......... i would..... even to their deaths.

why? because no one will force anything upon me against my wishes....... so neither would i do the same to someone else. i have allowed them to build up that wall between us........... but what they dont understand is the wall works both ways.......... they dont associate with me............ but that wall keeps them from associateing with my son........... which is fine by me........ he will be raised to know better than to allow a cult to brainwash him.

does it upset jws that avoid contact with non jw family?

my hub is disfellowshipped, we have a 4 year old child , i make it very clear that im annoyed with local elders who never reported the min servant that abused children in the local cong to the police leaving him free to abuse my child , i am not a jw and have never been one , i would have thought that my hubs family ie his mother , brothers and sister would see my point of view regarding this matter, and not take it out on my innocent 4 year old by not coming to visit her , or inviting her to thier home since last july , when it was the court case so i asked mum inlaw to look after her grandchild as i had no choice .

they can think im an apostate bitch if they like because i really do no care but it must upset them not seeing my husband and child , when some of you were dubs did it upset you not having contact with grandchildren/neices /nephews, i know that as a child my hubs sister cried her self to sleep at night worrying about her non jw father dying at armagedon, poor kid i think thats child abuse putting that in her head .

what should i do to encourage a relationship with my child, they only live a 15 min walk away .

i know what you mean dawg........... how much snow you gettin?

what makes me laugh my everloving a$$ off is the fact that when my mom and sister actually came to see my son born......... they brought another F***ING witness with them...... and didnt call me untill they were half way here............... gotta love that kinda sh**.

so here he is....... and all my sister could say was.......... remember summers are for grandparents............ i was laughing and laughing.............. there is no way i would ever send him to see them. either me or his mother will be right by his side every single moment he is anywhere near a witless....... no exceptions

What does it take to get reinstated???

i have laid low from posting here for a bit and was barely here at all to begin with, so most, if not all of you, may not remember me.

i thought i'd let you all in on what just occurred in my cong.

my ex wife was df'd in 2003 for multiple counts of adultery spanning a 7 year stretch.

primitivegenius 17 years ago

ok i was told by a close personal friend who was pretty high up in the circuit........ that if you df someone and then they send in their letters and you reinstate them in less than a year........ the society would send the BOE a letter asking why they bothered.

although there is NO SET minimum time frame......... yeah right bulls***.......... as it has been said before........ its who you know, who your related to...... or just who likes you. ive seen women with hot daughters get on the fast track to reinstatement cause an elders son like her daughter......... but couldnt try to date her untill her mother was back in............ fortunately the daughter had higher standards and much better taste than to take that a$$hole.

i agree with you 100% dawg.......... when i went out of my way to see my family and actually introduce my YEAR OLD son to my father......... who could come half way to my house a dozen times to work on a F***ING ASSEMBLY HALL.............. but couldnt come see his own grandson ONCE.........

i stopped by for a few minutes on the way to see other family......... stayed 3hours away for 10 plus days.......... and came back by for an hour or so........

DID THEY EVER LOAD him up with crap........... and they might not think i saw it......... but i saw that F***ING bible story book they had close to the junk........ i was waiting for it to be put in............ JUST so i could throw that MOTHER F***ER into the field as we drove off.

My son will NEVER be left alone with a cult member.............. over my dead body

ive been to mexico....... nogales....... as soon as you walk across the border............ there is a tent where they ask if you want a girl....... and when you turn them down.... they say........... loudly........ what you like little boys......... and i DONT want to know if they supply them as well......... cause i would be totally .

when i was living in miami i got a job off 78th-79th street.... went there between 5 and 6 am........ and there were hookers on every cornor..... i was rideing with some people and as we weaved amonst the working girls to get to the job....... the driver almost has a wreck all the while yelling TITS TITS TITS......... and by the time i looked back over......... he/she/it had popped them babies back into a top that looked far to small to contain them.

so i guess that ill have to say that its just as bad in certain areas of the us.

so tomorrow is my 9th yr anniversary and my hubby (semi-active jw) has never bought me anything for our anniversary.

he may have gotten me a card once or twice.

last year i gave him cufflinks and told him i was getting him something 3 days before our anni.

primitivegenius 17 years ago

OK no bulls***.............. if you have a mate of either sex who is forgetfull........... and you dont want to be disapointed come anniversary............ TAKE THE INNITATIVE....... give them at least a three day warning....... or if finances are tight........ tell them the day before payday preceeding the anniversary....

"what do you want to do for our anniversary next thursday?"

then if they forget.... BARBECUE his or her ass......... and if finances make it all but impossible to go all out.... at least they can get ....... OR MAKE you a card. that and some sort of SPECIAL dinner..... splurge on wine if nothing else....... and hey whats it all about anyway? the fact that the other person is still SPECIAL to you.

it is in fact my anniversary...... on Thursday...... aka...... TOMORROW. i already got her the card and the wine.... so trying to figure out EXACTLY what im gonna fix her for dinner.... i teased her that i was gonna make her FRIED CHICKEN lol. she wanted to go out but i might make her something instead........ jurys still out tho.

growing up we always did the family present day on my mom and dads anniversary..... i hope to continue that tradition when the boy gets older.

would a jw wife be advised to divorce her disfellowshipped convicted hub

by looloo in

17 years ago

if he has been convicted of child abuse and doing a prison sentence , would she tell any newly interested ones where her husband was?

or would elders tell her to say he was"working away" or to avoid answering so as not to "stumble" new ones ?

she is supporting him as far as i know .

primitivegenius 17 years ago

WTS or its agents CANNOT advise any individual to divorce for any reason whatsoever as far as I know. That is a personal decision and the wts will not meddle, however, the wts WILL tell you that you do not qualify to get a scriptural divorce and if you reject such counsel and remmary you may get df.

yeah thats what they put on paper to bulls*** their way out of responsiblity in court.... fact is they will make up their mind and use the fact that "Jehovah Hates A Divorce" to recommend the spouse to take them back.

ive known tons of people who had abuseing husbands who were told to take him back........... even threatened with the loss of privledges ......both commenting and service and talks......... if they got the divorce. the justification........ the divorce would bring reproach upon the congregations name and jehovah so since it was a VISIBLE act for everyone to see...... so there must be VISIBLE consequences. this was told to the INNOCENT mate after her abuseing husband committed adultery and got caught and DF'ed. just another case of elders covering their asses.
