our basset hound moose died this morning.
he was only 2 1/2 years old but he had addison's disease.
something caused internal bleeding and he went very quickly, which was merciful.

ok, i'm writing this thru tears as i just found out in the last 5 minutes.
my dad died in august, and they had been together just 1 or 2 weeks over 70 years married!
i didn't expect her to last without him, and visa versa.. i just tried to call my sister, and no answer there.
((((((((((Brenda)))))))))) I'll be saying a prayer for you and your mom.

So, smartass comments aside... Kudra, did you actually see this, or was it a pun on Icke's research into the "lizard people"?
Just wonderin', not judging.

i think i've outgrown confusedjw since i'm out three years now in fade.
(a while ago a mod asked me if i would like to change it and that got me thinking recently).
of course i could switch to confused or confusedexjw.
I got one for ya.... "Wingman" :D

this time it wasn't coffee liquour.. i sat by her...stupid idea...she asked a question...i laughed uncontrolably...she asked if i was drunk...i sobered up quick unlike mel gibson..."of course not"...she said she will take me to the elders since jehovah does not accept drunkenness.
cool..i'll take drunkeness over apostasy any idea (edit: day) ... i drink to that!
.
Eat, drink, be merry, for tomorrow, we... erm...
God knows what happens tomorrow, but damnit, we may as well have a good time tonight.
A bottle of merlot here. Jehovah might not like us being drunk... but God doesn't give a damn.
Enjoy

my mom called last night to tell me he passed on sunday.
he died peacefully and fairly painlessly.
my mom said she was talking with him, went to answer the phone, and 5 minutes later he was gone.

i've been reading some sad experinces here... i dont see anyone talking about the bible... only how misserables the organization made their lives... ok ...so because of that...now i have permission to smoke marijuana and commit fornication?
this sounds pretty much like aa... and everybody having his/her personal "superior power" who is giving them the permit to do whatever they want...
i've been df for 4 years now and also dont agree with some jw teachings... why instead of blaming the wt for everything dont we look for the real truth in the bible and make things right.
How about there is no personal God that despises such meaningless things as fornication and drugs... and instead there is only an infinite intelligence that doesn't give a shit what kind of fun you have. Do you think that people that fornicate and do drugs are not able to live up to the only two laws we are told to live by as Christians, "You shall love the Lord your God with your whole heart, and with your whole soul, and with your whole mind, and with your whole strength; you shall love your neighbor as yourself."
I have enjoyed a nice relaxing smoke of green tonight... and you know what? I am feeling more loving right now than most of the hateful judging Christians.

he singles out christianity, but so many belief systems have the same problem...
"christianity has a built-in defense system: anything that questions a belief, no matter how logical the argument is, is the work of satan by the very fact that it makes you question a belief.
it's a very interesting defense mechanism, and the only way to get by it and believe me, i was raised southern baptist is to take massive amounts of mushrooms, sit in a field and just go, 'show me.'".
I was just today made aware of Hicks, had never heard of him before.... looks like I have a lot of reading and watching to do ;)
