i'm not joking.
this is in the family/children section on jw.org - mary - joshua - daniel - ruth - and more!.
i'm lmao that these are so similar to hockey cards or baseball cards that my siblings and i used to get in trouble for collecting when we were kids.
We had these when I was a kid, only they were very nicely done (gold edging, in a little box, etc.), which means they were not produced directly by the WTS. They must have been approved by the WTS (or we wouldn't have had them), but not necessarily promoted by them. As I recall there were exactly 100 characters.
If the WTS wants to provide something for children (in return for Sparlock), why not make a quality product, not this cheesy cut-n-fold crap?
this is a melancholy day for me.
over the past few years i have been studying american politics and have enjoyed learning perspectives from different ideologies.
i personally lean towards conservative values when it comes to creating legislature, however i am socially liberal.
Thank you for the response, ohiocowboy.
While I agree and support your desire for specific rights, and sooner rather than later, I must point out that those are not issues that can or will be addressed at the federal level, and certainly not by the decree of the president. Your argument is at the state level.
However, President Obama has created a legislative environment that makes your goals much more viable in the forseeable future. We all can celebrate that in our lifetimes we have moved gay rights from the closet to the national stage. We have presidents Clinton and Obama to thank for that.
Most gay people are happy about the incredible amount of progress achieved over a relatively short period.....................

He ain't done crap for the Gay demographic.
I repeat, Ohio cowboy, 'cause I am genuinely curious:
Really? What more would you suggest the federal government do on behalf of the gay demographic?

I could go on but I am too depressed today to think clearly.
Obviously.

What's presented to me through the TV screen and the internet can be a captivating experience, but it's largely just smoke and mirrors
Keep studying, but not by means of the TV. Books are better - you get a bigger picture, not just sound bites. You sound like someone who has escaped from one bubble into another bubble.
i'm still around.
i'm waiting to post till after the election because i don't want to waste my energy arguing politics, and i know i'm still not mature enough to ignore the bullshit.
hello to old friends.
Hi, ATJ.
just wondering.
i feel a little smugness from long time posters.
i got out as a kid 20 years ago and since i am a newbie here it feels like we are shown a little less respect.
For the answer to your question, I only have one word: Farkel.
i was surprised how well done and how good it was.
i read a few steven king books, but i'm not into horror.
any steven king fans, out there?.
Pretty good book and film. Currently reading 11/22/63 by King. Halfway through - it is as good as his older stuff.
appreciation for the original soundtrack for the rock opera theater cast and for the movie that soon followed.
but any comments on any of the versions or stories you have, thoughts you have on this masterpiece by andrew lloyd webber would be cool.. first question: ian gillan, the original jesus, of deep purple fame on the soundtrack from 1970?.
or ted neely, a texas rocker who did the role of jesus in the movie?.
I met Ted Neeley two-three years ago. Apparently he lives in my town. I was shopping at Trader Joe's just before Thanksgiving and I noticed this (fairly short) guy with his long hair in a kind of ratty pony-tail. I don't know why - but I am a 'noticer' of people, always have been. Anyway, I was looking in the deli case, standing next to him and I said, "There's a familiar face." I still did not recall where I knew him from. And I wasn't totally sure that I knew him at all. So he says, "Oh, I've performed in a few things."
Well, we stood and chatted for about 15 minutes - he called his wife and daughter over and introduced us, and he invited me to come backstage if I were ever at one of his shows. We talked about Carl (Judas) who had performed at a church Mr Bee used to attend in Los Angeles.
Honestly, I could barely get away from him - and I think it might have been because he is not often recognized in real life and he seemed very pleased. A super friendly, and gracious man. However - not as hot in real life as when he is singing onstage.
It was a nice experience.
