  No Handouts for me, Buddy!

  i just wanted to respond to someone on this forum (i think his name was "still-fading") who made the comment in one of the threads that "obama will win... the popular vote, due to fact that the people on the receiving end of hand outs outnumber the people paying into the system".

  here is my comment: false, false, false.

  i have not voted before, until yesterday, and i'm not normally political.

  Would like to compliment and commend both candidates on being a class act

  by StoneWall in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i generally don't have much to say on the polical field.. as i mentioned on a previous thread i thought either candidate would be a much better choice than what we've been thru the last eight years here in u.s.a.. with that said i must say i really appreciated how fast mccain got to the concession speech and didn't wait till hours on end hoping for a recount or a error on ballot counting etc.

  he showed total class in my opinion and handled the speech admiringly.. .

  now to obama.

  Going back, even for a party, was kinda traumatic...

  my mom called last week to tell me that i'd been invited to the high school graduation party of two girls from my former congregation.

  i went because these weren't just any girls; they'd been more like little sisters to me, best friends, right up until i purposely drifted away from the jws in 2003 {my brief jw bio: i started going to the hall with my re-instated mom when i was about 6 years old; i got baptized at her urging when i was 14, on septermber 1, 1991; i was a bible-loving, whole-hearted witness youth until age 25; then i left after a year of "apostate" reading at 26, attending my last meeting at a district convention on september 1, 2003; i've only been back for 1 memorial, and about 5 other times to visit family members or old "friends" at their various halls.

  } so yesterday i attended the party (at a seafood restaurant), bringing my wonderful "worldly" husband of 2 years, and his mom, with me.

  was it that you never got holiday candy until the day after?.

  that you couldn't be a "normal" kid?.

  that you always were feeling restricted, depressed and angry???.

  i am so shocked by the devastation in the south from katrina.

  watch the news channel for a few minutes and you can imagine the grief, heartbrake and misery that thousands of people are experiencing as we read this board.

  please, if you have any money at all to donate, do it now while it is fresh in your mind.

  Hi everybody, I´m a new member from Spain

  by benito in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  first of all, i want to apologize for all the mistakes i will probably make, i m not very good at english, it s very hard for me to think in another language different than my native tongue (spanish, of course!!)..

  i ve been lurking through this forum for a long time but i didn t dare write here because of my lack of knowledge of the language but i changed my mind.

  i think i can give a different point of view from other members of usa of uk, it seems that most of the members are from theses countries.
