No one knows the precise origin Where or when this food did begin Everybody in Québec will tell you with a grin It was their little village that invented the poutine To be really authentic the potatoes must be old The gravy must be hot and the cheese must be cold With a journal de Montréal wherever it is sold Served with a roll in a bowl by a troll You put some potatoes and some cheese in a tin But the cheese won't melt till you put the gravy in Then it sticks to your fork and dribbles down your chin And that's how you know that you're eating a poutine If the French fries are greasy and the gravy's nice and hot The cheese curds melt as they come out of the pot But once in your stomach they congeal into a knot If your food does that then poutine is what you've got Some use mozzarella but that isn't really it And they serve it at McDonalds but the French fries are shit And I hate to be picky but I have to admit It's hard to eat when the cook has a zit! There's no way anyone would call it haute cuisine But it's not really junk food it's something in between But it's better than a burger or a Mike's submarine A balanced diet is a beer and a poutine!

One Watchtower/Catholic comparison...
by Confession indon't know how many of you have read m. james penton's "apocalypse delayed: the story of jehovah's witnesses.
" honestly it's not what i'd call an "easy read," but it does contain very well researched information.
i enjoyed his recognition of a similarity between the wts and catholicism.

"A bit off topic, but not too much I hope. I am currently reading the book "Upon this Rock" by Stephen K. Ray and I'm finding it very interesting. Some of you may too. It's a bit heavy on the footnotes, but there's a ton of information in them." Not that I'm a proponent of theism, but if you want a balanced view, also read the book "The Primacy of Peter: Essays in Ecclesiology and the Early Church" by John Meyendorff et al. Many quotes in books like Mr. Ray's are taken out of both historical and intertextual context.

Kingdom Servie Yearly Notice to Register with Selective Service
by VM44 inthe june, 2006 issue of "our kingdom service" is available for download at reexamine.org.. this issue contains the yearly reminder for young men to register with the selective service.. here is the exact announcement.. from: our kingdom ministry, june 2006, page 3. u.s. selective service regulations require that all men register at the post office within 30 days after reaching 18 years of age.
a male noncitizen under the age of 26 who takes up residency in the united states must also register with selective service within 30 days of becoming a resident.
all of those required to do so should comply with this law, viewing it as a christian's obligation to the superior authorities.

The cynical side of me would say that they encourage people to register, so that if there ever is another draft, the JWs will have a lot of "martyrs" (though IRL they're only going to jail) to inspire the grassroots.

I have a theory that JW theology is simply a reaction to the doctrines of others rather than a reasoned synthesis of their own making. I also have a feeling I'm right.

This title reminds me of that show Bromwell High wherein the girls forms the "Save Comprehensive Education and F]ck the Police Party" to run for student president; the title makes more sense in the context, of course.
