  They're all adults. They might not know what they're getting into, but then they love it and they stay. It's their choice.

  What's Wrong With The World Today?

  they're turning kids into slaves just to make cheaper sneakers.

  but what's the real cost 'cause the sneakers don't seem that much cheaper?.

  why are we still paying so much for sneakers when you get them made by little slave kids?.

  i want to make sure i don't accidentally call mum in the middle of a session.

  i also want to know when the rest of the family get their hands on the new book about gods loving rules; eg, before or after my next visit?

  there's a reprint of the info re how to treat your disfellowshipped family like shyte in it, it's going to set my family back another five years.

  I've discovered that Sydney is August 1-3, if that is useful to anybody.

  Any Dave Matthews Band Fans ?? Your favorite CD's or Songs by Him ??

  i have enjoyed seeing this musician explode upon the music scene in the last 15 years or so.

  his mix of blues, jazz, rock & roll with great musicians playing uncommon instruments seen in a rock band - make his music all the more interesting !

  here are some of my favorite cd's and songs by him and his band .

  Only reason I've heard of him is because of Futurama. Apparently he really does not rock.

  I don't get it. It's the cheapest ISP that wins. You could set up your own and surf wherever you want for free; unless you decide to surf on the 'pay-per-view' multi-million-dollar sites, which you wouldn't, because they're not free.

  Hi, I'm really glad that the ADs are working for you now, they take about a month to kick in, so hopefully you'll find some stability now. I'm not a professional, I'm just another ex-JW who has been depressed, so take my opinion in that light. I was on ADs for I think nearly two years and it often felt like they weren't doing much, I often just felt 'normal', so I suppose that without them I would have been far from normal. I decided I was going to be very kind to myself and also that I'd do a lot of fun healthy stuff, because I consider fun a part of joy, which is a part of engagement, which is a part of fulfillment, which is a part of happiness. I started with having fun; I made deliberate efforts to avoid the intense which is my preference. Comedy movies only. Funny books only. Fun people only (to the extent possible). I took up skiing, did more SCUBA, bought a motorbike. I took up fun. It's possible to do that without becoming shallow.

  It was the first step for me, I think I'm still only around step two. I still have to Let Go, you know, of the witness experience. That's probably years away. It is also able to jump right back into your life anytime it wants - I was getting used to the idea of my beloved siblings growing old and dying happy without me, but now my sister has some pretty bad cancer going on, and that's made everything ugly fresh again. I've gotten a prescription for ADs again, I'm going to leave it for a month or two, the time it will take to find out how the chemo is going, but I think I'll need them again for a little while.

  In the meantime I'm getting back into fun - got a New Zealand holiday in a few weeks, which is frankly the greatest place on earth. I'm taking it easy on myself. I suggest you show yourself the utmost care, love and respect for some time. This bad time, it's going to be history one day. We just have to find our way through. You'll make it.

  Volunteering is also a good way to get out of listening to the program so you can legitimately goof off with your mates.

  driving for miles between houses...sometimes i would lose a hub-cap and have to go back "hubcap hunting.

  " why bother since my car was as old as i was .....20 years.

  people that live 30 miles from town would be shocked to see us!

  Best way to pioneer was to know the guy who took a busful out on rural territory once a month. Loading in at 4am, somebody would leave an old Awake with the McDonalds window kid and we'd all count the time from then until we got back home late in the evening. We'd play card games and talk to maybe two puzzled farmers each during the whole day.
