My Music is Up Again
by Farkel ini know this part of jw.com is about 'friends" and i also know that i don't have any, or very few of them.
the friends i do have are awesome, and the friends i don't have don't know what they are missing!.
that being said, several human beings have asked me to provide them access to some of the music i have recorded in the last few years.. since i happen to be working on a website that i can get access to, i uploaded some of my stuff there.

Is it legal to upload music?
by MsMcDucket ini just uploaded a song that i bought to a web page called http://boomp3.com i don't know if it's legal to do that?
does anyone else know?
it converts songs to mp3 and makes a html code for the songs too.

YEP!! Sure is. By uploading a song and making it available for others to access for free is distributing copyrighted media illegally. It is the same as if I bought a CD in a store and went home and made 10 copies and gave them to my friends. It's illegal to distribute copyrighted music, software, etc., even if it's for free.
Just FYI - as LDB stated earlier, it's not the copying of the song that's an issue; it's what you do with that copy. Sounds like you are very consciencious about this and you're doing the right thing by trying to remove your upload.

Good to see someone doing the right thing in a case like this. I don't know, maybe what you had was OK. But I do feel strongly against illegally obtaining music or software. It's stealing, just the same as walking into a store and putting a CD in your coat pocket and walking out without paying.

And it happened in those days that The Almighty Toaster looked upon the earth and saw only staleness. And He proclaimed, "I shall cause a great flood upon the earth, which no toast has ever seen, and I will smite all the stale toast on the earth. But there was one loaf of bread which found favor with the Almighty Toaster. "I shall spare the loaf of Rye. I shall command him to build a large bread box for him and those in his loaf." And he commanded Rye to build a bread box and gave him the measurements and directions. "You must build for yourself and your loaf a large bread box. It must be 300 cubits by 100 cubits. And you must build a roll-top door on one side. You must go out and gather 2 of each kind of toaster food and bring them to the bread box."
So Rye proceeded to call out to the male and female toaster foods. And two by two, male and female, they followed Rye into the divine Bread Box. He brought the Texas Toast, the white and wheat toast, Poptarts, Toaster Streudles, Bagels, English Muffins, and Hot Pockets. Two by two they followed him. And when they were all safe within the Bread Box, Almighty Toaster closed the roll top door. Suddenly, the rain began to pour. The Rye loaf and toaster foods were frightened, for they knew that sogginess was the most severe form of punishment from the Almighty Toaster. But they stayed dry and crispy inside their box.
Finally the rain stopped, and the Bread Box came to rest upon mount Wonder. The roll top door opened, and as far as the slices of toast could see, there were toasters. Red toasters, white toasters, 4-slot toasters, and wide-slot toasters for bagels. They knew then that the Almighty Toaster had saved them and would forever continue to care for their toasting needs, as long as they remained dry and crispy, and avoided the temptations of the evil Toastanus, the Burned One.

What was the worst (or funniest) thing you got caught doing at a meeting?
by danfromma inor in service, or just by jws period... me, i was notorious for doodling in my literature.
when i was about 12, i got caught drawing the led zeppelin logo in my bible by the meanest elder in the hall.
my mother wouldn't let me out of the house for about 2 months!

I posted this on a thread a few months ago, but I thought I'd add it to this thread:
I'm sure you've all been at a typical boring meeting and started laughing uncontrollably. Well, this topic made me thing of a time we were studying the Greatest Man book. The reader was supposed to read "a manger-fed bull" but instead he said "a manager-fed bull". My husband (Little Drummer Boy) started innocently chuckling (he was picturing a young McDonald's manager being fed right into a bull's mouth)then his laugh became contagious. Within a minute, several people were desperately trying to stifle their laughter. LDB couldn't control it, and had to leave the hall. He got to the back of the hall and let out a high pitched yelp with his hand over his mouth, instantly stirring up the laughter. The book study conductor had to stop in the middle of the study to ask what was so funny. It was one of the few times we actually had fun at a meeting.
Here's another one:
When LDB and I were newly married, I tried (and failed miserably) to make a crock pot of ham and beans. It was awful!!! We came to the bookstudy hungry, because we didn't have time to make anything else. The book study conductor (who was also "of the annointed") asked how we were, so we briefly related our awful dinner story. Well, part way through the study, there was a minute where it was really quiet because we were all trying to look up a scripture or something, and a baby sitting near us in his car seat let out a HUGE bubbly fart. The bookstudy conductor laughed and said "Well put that in the crock pot!" We laughed, but no one else knew what he was talking about.

Hello, fellow Hoosier! Nice to see another Indiana representative on board. As for your feeling lost religiously, DO NOT rush into any other religious decisions right now, even as far as deciding that you want to be reinstated. You have been through a lot, and it really sounds like you need to give yourself a break from trying to find all the right answers. Let life happen, get yourself psychologically on track and the deeper philisophical and religious issues will eventually work themselves out. You've been told how to think and what to think for your entire life by the witnesses, and now it's your turn to give control back to yourself.

I am a voice major at Marshall University
Hello fellow vocalist. Actually I shouldn't group myself in with the likes of those who actually are getting college degrees in vocal performance. I'm just inspiring to be a better-than-average vocalist. Check out my thread called "Are any of you vocalists?" Stop in there and tell us more about your singing experience,etc, if you'd like.
