Why I VOTED REPUBLICAN on Nov 5th
by cellomould ini voted for only one republican in this mid-term election.
i do think that governmental positions should be filled by a diverse group of well-qualified people.. .
but it is very dangerous to allow one party (republican in particular) to have a majority, as has happened in the senate.

Are You A man Or A Woman?
by SpannerintheWorks insometimes, the gender of a poster is relatively easy to deduce due to their style of posting, and, dare i say it, their choice of vocabulatory.
but sometimes it is difficult to know if you are "talking" to a man or a woman (or homosexual).

Did anyone see Serena Williams on The Tonight Show
by JWinSF inlast night i happened to surf onto the tonight show.
bob newhart was the first guest, the second was serena williams.
as i'd never actually seen her before [not a sports buff] and all i'd heard about her was the various jw postings, i was curious.. first, she came off as totally natural to me.

Post by Ray Franz
by Amazing inray franz requested that i post the following comments written by him:
as has been stated already, the presentation made from the silent lambs source in connection with the child abuse issue completely misrepresents my position.
when i spoke by phone recently with the author of that presentation, and pointed out that i had never expressed the views presented, his comment was that from his previous conversation with me (held some months earlier) he "got the impression that i was not on the same wave length" with him.

Do You Ever "MISS" Being A JW, Elder,...
by minimus ini recently was told by a couple of elders how much they "missed" me since i am no longer an elder.
i got to thinking , "did i miss anything because i'm not an elder?".
i have to say that i really can't think of anything that i truly miss.

Teresa Graves dead
by JWinSF ini just read in the 10/11/2002 edition of the san francisco examiner that teresa graves died in a fire at her home in la.
she was 54. for those too young to remember, she was a fabulous comedienne on rowan & martin's laugh-in tv show [that also featured goldie hawn, ruth buzzi, lily tomlin, arte johnson, and many other great talents].
she also did a few movies, the last in 1974. that's about the time that she gave it all up to become a jw.. john w wirtanen
