  Did you ever want to 'cross your heart' as a kid?

  what are some of things you were deprived of as a jw kid that were not all that bad??

  i remember when other kids would say 'cross your heart or hope to die' as an act of truthfulness.

  i don't know the origin...but it seemed harmless enough.

  they look like ciggies, they even taste like ciggies, but they smell like horse poop.

  hell i don't care...they'll do me.. i've been off smokes for 2 years...but had a terrible craving (stress related) and so i surrendered to the craving and had a few drags of a peter jackson number 8...then i had another...and another.

  i had some crazy thoughts about buying a packet.

  kep's bad-ass brood!!!.

  above are three of new zealand's most notorious apostates who reside in apostate ave, rotovegas.

  these three bad-ass-postates regularly gather together as a small band of merry men who incite love and fine works amongst themselves - this usually includes the consumption of a most popular beverage in their parts known as waikato draught or steinlager.

  Another Melbourne Bomb Scare!

  the rialto building located in the city business district of melbourne has had another bomb threat.

  all those who work for the law firm we work with who are located in that building, have been given the day off.

  the authorities are treating the threat as a hoax....but to be on the safe side, some are taking precautions.

  Melbourne's first ex-jw meet up a success!

  by Beck_Melbourne in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i don't know how everyone else's meetups have been going, but here in melbourne we had our first official meetup on saturday night.. the meetup situation is quite different to meeting people off a discussion board such as this...as you have already formed a friendship or become familiar online...so this was a new experience for me.

  in attendance we had 6 ex-dubs, 3 guys, 3 gals, as well as 2 non-dub partners.

  at the first venue we found it hard to talk and hear each other...so we moved on to a quieter venue where we all shared pizza and drinks and were able to talk across the table with each other.

  the other day we went to a christening for one of andy's grand nephew's.

  andy's neice is half aussie half italian and her husband is full italian...so what a grandiose affair it was...i loved every minute of it.

  the first thing i noticed was all the gold...every male wore a gold necklace, usually italian gold and not aussie gold - apparently.
