"I am leaving"
by DazedAndConfused inbigdreaux's thread caused me to think back on similar threads where the poster's have been blasted for their exit threads.
most try to reason with the poster with positive responses and try to get them to stay with us, but a few have posted negative thoughts to being downright nasty.. i have noticed various post's stating "you'll be back" (in sarcasm) to those who outright state that we are better off without you (the poster who says goodbye.).
there have been good people here, bigdreaux included, who are ostracised for their post to say goodbye.

gretchen, i don't know about anyone else, but, when i was going, i wanted to tell my friends goodbye. why is that such an issue with people? i was ready to move on. i didn't do anything dramatic, or say, woe is me. i was ready to go, and wanted to say so. just like i tell friends in real life goodbye. i don't have self esteem issues. anyone that knows me can attest to that.

moped questions
by rebel8 infor some reason i cannot find this information anywhere.....maybe you gurus can help.
i want to figure out if it makes sense for me to get a moped for my 11 mile trip to work during summer and fall.

too true. most motorcycle engines are 2 stroke, which is a high pollution motor. more people are coming out with small 4 strokes for bikes. they are more pricey, but, pollute alot less. they are less powerful than a 2 stroke, but, get better gas mileage, and pollute less. that's why car manufacturers use them.
i should clarify, i am talking about small bikes here. bigger bikes are 4 stroke.

You are right to a point. Air cooled motorcycles pollute much more than liquid cooled motorcycles. The EPA is heading to regulate motorcycles and require liquid cooled engines... Most scooters today are liquid cooled...

Dub w/soul patch?
by La Capra ini was at the gym this morning, pouring myself a cup of coffee and i noticed a sweaty man sitting at a table reading what looked like the small version of the maroon deluxe nwt (the one made out of pig leather that were all the rage in the early 90's before the "donation arrangement").
(for anyone who cares, he was in revelation.
) it also appeared that he had a colorful tract or magazine and the daily text book (are those spiral bound now?

Do the DF'd ones shun you like the active ones?
by JH inoften i meet jw's and most of them will shun me to a certain extent, although i'm not df'd, but what i find funny is that many that are disfellowshipped will also shun me or do their best not to look at me.. so then i wonder if they think i'm still active and they are df'd, so that's why they shun me.
but i have no clue if they are df'd or not since i don't go to meetings anymore.

oompa, with all due respect, i don't think it's your place. if he did want her to know, he would have told her.

what got me over being shy, yes, i used to be very shy, was the thought that, while i am worrying what the other person is thinking about me, they are worrying what i think of them. after you realise this, it's much easier.

yeah, the black brothers always wore loud clothes, and hats, which is really cool. but, woe to a white brother that does. the double standard is laughable.
