If someone told you they would give you $10 M,,,,,, if you,,,,,,
by AK - Jeff injust closed your eyes, threw a dart at the world map, and would have to take the 10 million, get on a plane within the hour, move to that location, and never look back, contact your friends or relatives again.
no rule changes.
you can take your mate and/or minor children, but can tell no one else.

the anywhere in the world thing? No. The "take the mate and the 'kids'" thing? Sure I can do that.

::::As long as I am considered as part of the congregation the elders have some authority over me; ::::
Amber, the elders only have authority over you if you give them that authority. Whatever their decision, you are going to live your life as a healthy, thinking member of society, right? So where is their authority? They cannot require you to DA, and DF'ing you only works within the bounds of their own little world and the other people who choose to subject themselves to it. They have NO authority to force you to be "Amber Rose Disfellowshipped Sagan" or "Amber Rose Disassociated Sagan", can they? Just because it is their rule, doesn't mean it has to be yours.
Wishing you both the best. -O

Caught Wife Cheating
by roflcopter inso i posted a while back about my marriage problems.... whole new gambit thrown into the mix.
i've had suspicions all along that something like this might be happening... but only just not confirmed that she's been cheating on me... with another jw that she works with!
she could have been more discreet about it rather than leave all the text messages on her phone.

SBF: I'm not above using their own stick to beat them with. Presumably that is the sentiment being expressed here.

I was a big huge nerd. Only girl in the "computer club" which I was allowed to attend because it was held during normal school hours, during break time. I was in the band, so I was also a band geek, and I was a JW- one of those maddening ones who preached, earning me the sometimes nickname of 'bible girl,' although our school had a thriving junior something or other which was a fundie christian club, so I was oddly NOT the most rabid bible thumper in my small-town high school. I had a very large vocabulary since one of my favorite subjects was always "language arts," and believe me, that never got me any kudos, so add the moniker "walking dictionary" to the list of names I wished I didn't answer to... bah.
In spite of all that stuff, I really liked school and was pretty depressed over not continuing after H.S., even though I "knew" I was right. Currently, I have vocational school training, and still no higher education. It's one of the wrongs I hope to rectify someday.

It's Saturday night, did you have your smoke? :) I did, had one of my A.F. Exquisitos, but the last 1/2 was kind of rough. Next time I buy a box of shorties, I'll get the Cohiba pequenos, which I usually only have at McMenamins, cause they're so damn expensive (to me). ;)

Lazyboy! Although Flexsteel makes some really great stuff, when I got my (2nd) LB, there was a flexsteel running a close second. Just make sure when you recline, watch that your head is fully on the chair (back/headrest) and that your heelbones don't hit the hard edge of the foot rest. Size them properly and they're comfy enough to sleep in. My hubby is only 3" taller than I am and my Lazyboy is too short for him at the foot, and uncomfortable. The plus side is that it keeps him OUT of it! muahahaha! All MINE!

So. The Baby Killers in Brooklyn aren't going to be able to interrogate the doctors who saved 4 childrens' lives about what? Why they didn't just let all 6 of them die? Good. At last somebody has some commonsense. Go Canada!

I don't experience a "void" either. I finally have breathing space to pursue interests, run a business, and just hang out drinking coffee if I feel like it. Whew!
