Hi Kat
I'm reading your story and hanging on every line. you said it was long but I read so fast it didn't seem long at all.
sorry about the things you have been through.
Life is sometimes so tough on a person. It's not that one asks for these tough things to happen they just do.
((( Hugs to you, Kat )))

was it just me or did it seem each year when halloween rolled around, jws would always say "boy, seems like more and more people are celibrating halloween this year" and everyone in the cargroup would nod their heads in agreement.
this was soon followed by a discussion how this was sure another sign that satan was hard at work and that the end of the system was near.
just something i was thinking about earlier today as the kids and i skipped church and put some finishing touches on our scary halloween decorations.
It was rainy here too, so we only had about half as many visitors.
Didn't dampen my kids spirits though. They seem to have collected twice as much junk food.
Looks like my kids will be "sugar high" until Christmas!
Gotta run.. I have a 9 year old to peel off the wall.LOL

Hi ((( Morty and Kids)))
So sorry, this has taken place.
I suspect the full story will be gotten to within a few days.
I can imagine that you and your family are in "shock" about this. There are alot of good teachers out there. Certainly sounds that he truly had the ability to teach to kids at the classroom level (as evidenced by how well your kids did in his classes)..
One of my kids has a math teacher right now who.. has a good heart, but can't teach a lick. He knows all his stuff but he just can't teach it. ..
Please give us more info as the whole story unfolds, Morty.

i took my niece to see "the grudge" last night.
i was holding on to her almost the entire time.
i thought it was pretty creepy, but i haven't seen many scary movies to compare it to.
I'm a fraidy cat!!!...

about 20 to 25 years ago, there was a brief time where there was an intermission in between the public talk and the wt study.
it was about 10 mins long.
gave ppl time to walk around, go to the bathroom etc.
Yes, as a very young girl I remember them having about a 10 minute break in between Sunday Talk and Watchtower Study.
They stopped it because it gave to much of an opportunity for people to exit and go home.

.
say something kind about someone else on this board.
try to pick someone you don?t know as well as the others and focus on what it is about them that appeals to you.
I wish my mom would have some of the insights and qualities of Mulan..

on a night with a total eclipse of the moon.. in a year that manny hit a ball that hit a young boy in the mouth at fenway park in boston - the boy lived in the house that babe ruth lived in.. 100 years after last beating the yankees in a winner take all, final season game.. after being the first team in baseball history to come back from 0-3 in any post season series to beat the yankees - the greatest comeback in sports history.. after selling babe ruth to the yankees in 1920 - who then said the red sox wouldn't win a world series for 100 years.. beating the cardinals, the best team in baseball this year - in 4 straight.. not since 1918 - the red sox are champions of the world!.
the curse of babe ruth is dead.. for you tom yawkee.
(long long time owner of the red sox who passed away without ever seeing this.).
Victory for my Red Sox could not be sweeter.
Hooray! Hooray!!!
I very happy that they broke the curse.
One of the players interviewed reminded all the fans with the "not since 1918 signs".. to tear those signs all up now.

what is with you boys and your video games?
my boyfriend was first in line last night to get his grand theft auto-san andreas that he prepayed for in may and has been talking about for months.. i won't talk to him for like a month.. anyone know the average age when guys are supposed to grow out of this?.
stupid boys.
There was this one Playstation one game that my kids got me involved with.
DINO CRISES!.
There were lots of codes, puzzles stuff to figures out. They would play the game and when they got to those things I'd hear, "MOM, MOM".. come figure out the codes for us. "
I liked that game.
I also like "Lara Croft in Tombraider 1 and 2." .. but I just watched and helped the kids figure out where to go.

i use to be afraid of the dark.i would feel the ___presence__of unseen things.
creepy stuff.. but, when i became agnostic and left all things religious behind me a very strange side effect took place in my life.
just this: nothing makes me afraid anymore!.
Hi Andi
I found your account funny because I can see this happening to me. (I startle very, very easily)..product of my childhood.
anyway the part about
My screaming of course scared Neil because he didn't know I was coming down the hallway, so we're both screaming. LOL.

i'm going through a time when so many things seem to be going wrong.. doesn't it seem as though it never rains, it pours?.
i know the skeptics will roll their eyes at this suggestion: i think that sometimes things happen this way for a reason, and that when we successfully get through it, we are so much stronger.. what do you think about the idea that trials sometimes come along for a reason?.
