  don't know if it's my imagination but a lot of these gb old boys seem to have a knack for living a really long time.

  i think freddy franz was 99 when he died?

  barber has just croaked at 102 (or 101?).

  In corporations they give the "worthy" stock options. At Bethel, those appointed to the G.B. are given miracle wheat packets, which these codgers put under their pillows, and the mojo works on and on. In addition, the angel from the pool of Siloam relocated to Brooklyn to stir the Bethel pool waters.

  so i laid 1500 sf of sod thursday (approx 2,000 #), and unloaded 1500 # of sand yesterday, and did a whole lot of roto-tilling and raking and dog-turd scooping, not to mention the idiot "helpers" at home depot.. anyway, my poor old body (54 years old) foolishly listened to my 18-year old brain and said (like that little devil on the shoulder): "sure, you can do it, you can do it!!!".

  lol.

  pain is life, and life is pain.

  does anyone else know of someone who has a hanging picture of russel out where everyone else can see it?

  i never thought it would happen, but it did.

  i just didn't think i would be conducting a seder when i converted six years ago.

  due to my in-laws moving into an assisted living apartment the passover seder will be at our home now.

  Hey Z-

  Ha lailah hazeh - matzos. Throw in some maror - the bitter herb, not the sweet one, and you get the slavery days. Let's chant the plagues on three - dam, zephardaiah, kinim,,,, what a great time. Almost as good as the Day of Atonement, and all the ways one can die the next year. Although, celebrating the death of the first born is a real kicker. Excellent fun!

  Moshe-

  Howdy! Mah nishtah ha lielah hazeh, mikol ha lalot? Enjoy the 10 plagues and the bitter herbs - the Sedar is once a year, whereas the plagues, and the bitter herbs are the daily life within the WTS.

  Should the "Other sheep" attend the memorial ?

  by JH in

  2. beliefs

  john 10:16.

  16and i have other sheep, which are not of this fold; those also i must bring, and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd.. although the "other sheep" don't partake and don't have jesus as mediator, should they still attend the memorial?

  The other sheep should bring flocks of Azazel goats to the memorial - a few to roast, a few to pin return visits to and let loose in the territory, and a few to graze on matzos and Mogen David swill. Then the other sheep should sing 'Bah!' with emphasis, and return to their lives before the cult.

  Howdy-

  Question: Does the software do past years? I finished my 2003 a few months ago manually for working in Ontario, and I was reminded by mail many times that my last year of work in Canada (2004 was/is due).

  Thanks!
