  The kind of Man GWBush is.

  by Yerusalyim in

  at walter reed medical center in washington dc recently the sergeant major of the army, jack tilley, was with a group of people visiting the wounded soldiers.

  he saw a special forces soldier who had lost his right hand and suffered severe wounds of his face and side of his body.

  the sma wanted to honor him and show him respect without offending, but what can you say or do in such a situation that will encourage and uplift?

  This reminds me of those silly copy-protection methods that were used in old computer games.

  (Enter the the 10th word on page 3,paragraph 2 from your manual...)

  Annoying *and* ineffective...

  So, what REALLY happened on September 11, a.k.a. the unknowns...???

  by reporter in

  it's getting on to almost two years since the events of september 11, and it is striking how little we know about what happened: .

  we don't know the real names of any of the hijackers.. we don't know what countries they came from.. we don't know who planned and organized the terrorism.. we don't know who financed it.. we have no idea what actually happened at the pentagon (but i know a boeing 757 didn't go through this hole).

  normal video tapes of and from the pentagon building, which should have shown what happened, have never been released (except for one, which poses more questions than it answers).

  this is my final and very last post after this i will not return here as someone here made something clear to me.

  my faith in god and jesus christ cannot and i will not tolerate others who do not believe to attempt to stumble me or change my mind at all.

  my faith stands strong and true and none of you can do nothing to change it.. gods word say "do not cast your pearls before swine".

  Is there not a contradiction here?

  If your faith is strong,then what does it matter what others think?

  remember when you were a kid and played that game where one person started a story and passed it off to the next person?

  with all the talent and diversity on the board, i thought it would be interesting to see what happens.

  i'll start it.. .

  >...What she didn't notice, was a strange blue light glowing behind her.

  But as the blue glow expanded she became aware of a humming noise.That made her turn around

  just in time to see the glow morphing into a rabbitt .A fluffy cute white one.

  "I'm Jehover.Repent,repent!!! Armageddon is here!" it shouted.

  "Is it not too late already to repent,when the big A. has arrived?" she asked.

  "I changed the rules,otherwise no one would be left for my new little world !".("You got that right" she thought.)

  "I can't believe you're Jehover" She said "But you do look cute,can I pet you?"

  Jehover the rabbitt was a bit miffed that no one was taking him seriously,but he relented;

  "Oh alright then,knock yourself out" and she stroked and petted Jehover who purred and turned into a little kitten.

  "Your very cute,Jehover but I can't take you with me" Zara told Jehover the rabbitt-kitten.

  Then an army sergeant suddenly popped up,"Right!" he said "This is getting too silly! Stop it!"

  "Aren't you from Monty Python?" She asked the sergeant.

  "Yes! And they better not know that I'm here,or they'll throw the book at me.

  Now to get this story back on track.Where were we? Ah yes that blue light! Now get on with it!"

  and he disappeared in a puff of smoke.

  "I guess I'm out of here too" said Jehover and he was also off in a puff of smoke,a cute puff of smoke actually.

  And there was that blue light again...

  can people be single and happy?

  the older i get the more i believe that being single is the way to go.there are so many advantages.just to name a few;.

  you can finish that college degree, go to the neighborhood bar anytime, do charity work, join a night class, stay out all night, flirt with anybody you please.

  >Can people be single and happy?

  I have been single all the time,and at 42 I have gotten used to it so much

  that the institution called "marriage" does not interest me at all...

  Did you use the JW calendars?

  by GermanXJW in

  2. friends

  even in my hardcore active jw time i had no use for the jw calendar.

  i ordered it each year and put it into a drawer.

  most months were really ugly illustrated and it was completly useless without the holidays.

  In the early seventies the WTS decided to stop printing those calendars because they found

  it too "Pagan".Then a few years later "New Light" must have arrived and they started publishing them again...

  Dubla:

  >theres a big difference between planes being tracked "at all", and every single plane that takes off around the globe being tracked. obviously >you believe anything that flies should be tracked.......sorry, but thats not reality. but, if this is as obvious as you make it sound, surely you >could provide some proof?

  Just check the site I mentioned above.So you don't believe anything that flies should be tracked?

  Or you don't think it's possible? Fine,Ok, join the others then...

  Also another quote from the article (See link in original post):

  >"When it started taxiing down the runway, the radio control tower tried to make contact with the pilot, but there was no response and >nothing has been seen of the plane since."

  So this was not even an ordinary take-off,the tracking should have started right then,and I think it did,so all the more reason

  not to believe the "We have few clues" line...
