ANYTHING played on "popular radio", "teeny bopper stations", I LOATHE hip-hop, rap and any off shoots of said music, that involves "bitches", "hoes", "gangstas" or "playas". I DESPISE modern country. I can't stand any music with "Cookie Monster vocals" and guitars tuned down 2 steps. I really HATE EMO music, BUT NUMBER ONE WITH A BULLET....

RUSH!!!! I swear in hell, they have a man strapped up being tickled on the feet listening to Geddy Lee sing in one ear, and listening to a woman nag in the other ear, all the while having his balls rubbed with a cheese grater. Oh how I loathe Geddy Lee, the lyrics and those terrible vocals, combined with all that "advanced" musicianship, just KILLS ME!!! Plus Rush fans, are easily the biggest nerds I have ever encountered, usually enjoying things like Sci-Fi and egg salad sandwiches, and still live in mama's basement.

got any good recipes?.

bluesbreaker59

Or since you live in the South, make yourself a nice Peach Pie!!! Or Sweet Potato Pie (I have a great recipe, that you'll love) Or my favorite dessert... PEACH COBBLER!!!! I have recipes for peach cobbler and sweet potato pie if you're interested, I make those lots when I have BBQ, makes a great ending "light" ending to a heavy meal of meat.

i have a question about my religion.

when people turn apostate, why do they seem kinda... weird.

they turn back to false teachings and their bible knowledge even proves that.

Hey Nizmo,

Sorry I missed out on the lively discussion, I was having sex (outside of marriage, oh the horror), celebrating the Red Sox victory!!!

Debate this one for me, tuff guy. I don't believe the Bible is more inspired than any other book, including Mary Poppins or any other children's book. Prove to me WITHOUT using the Bible, or any "religious scholar's opinion" that the Bible came from "God" or some "divine being"...

I'll be living life again now, and waiting for you to prove that one. After you answer that... I recommend you go read the book "Millions Now Living Will Never Die", that sure was a doozy. Or perhaps go back and read some of the Studies in the Scriptures of your founder, "Crazy" Russell? Or better yet, just go take some measurements of an old local building, then apply those measurements towards events in the Bible. Or perhaps you'd like to speculate on how to apply the number 144,000 or 1914 or certain number of days in the Bible???

Also why is it that some of the Bible you are told to read and follow LITERALLY, yet the other part is "open for interpretation and man made rules"??? If so, again I will tell you that the book of Revelation was inspired by writer's doing hallucenagenic drugs, much like the hippies of the 60's, and early Chinese opium dens.

Why don't you go study for the meeting, using your new Watchtower. Or perhaps you should catch up on your reading, have you read your 2 chapters of the Bible today??? Have you prayed enough to your great sky god? Or perhaps, since you follow the Bible, have you made any burnt offerings? Perhaps stoned a person? Have you prostrated yourself today? Have you washed to the elbows? If you eat meat, do you ensure it is properly bled? Meaning no "juices"???

Well, I'm off to have some BBQ and enjoy my day, and I'll say a little thank you to myself, for not believing in crazy claims of religion anymore.

My sisters wedding...

by zamora251978 in

below is a copy of the e-mail my sister sent me.

i had to make arrangements for my kids to be babysat somewhere else until after the wedding.

there little hearts are broken.

bluesbreaker59

Back when I was a retarted 18 year old getting married, I had to tell MY OWN MOTHER, that she couldn't come to the reception. That killed me, I was told by my future in-laws the DAY OF!!! They cornered me and told me that I would be disfellowshipped if I didn't comply, and told me how she "knew this day was coming since I was 6 years old". It was absolutely absurd. There was a big blow out meeting in the back room before we tied the knot, between my elders, my dad, my mom, and the "3rd party elders". See we got married at a hall that wasn't ours, so then the Service Overseer of that hall took it upon himself to ruin the whole day. Stating that he'd see to it that everyone in attendance at that reception would be disfellowshipped, my future in-laws also threatened to have the reception cancelled if she was going to attend. My elders, and my dad were fighting for my mother to be in attendance. All the elders that were talking to me said the same thing, "its your day, and if you want your mother there, its fine, we will just not talk to her". See my mom's whole side of the family has never been Dubs, and has ALWAYS hated them, forever. My wedding day pretty much sealed that fate forever. In the end, mom didn't come to the reception, and her whole side of the family, hated me for it, it caused major problems for a long time. I even got bitched out by my grandma and aunt for it.

The deciding factor of why my mom didn't come... My future wife, was asked, "Do you want Bluesbreaker's mom at the reception", she looked my mom right in the eyes and said, "No". I held that against her during our whole marriage, many times we would fight because of our wedding day. I refused to look at our wedding photos or buy any wedding pictures because of the trauma caused to me on that day. Its truly no surprise that 5 years later, I filed for divorce, we had a terrible marriage.

My advice, very simple, you go, and you go to both, and you tell that no it all elder, REALLY LOUDLY, IN FRONT OF EVERYONE, TO KISS YOUR ASS!!!

fresh cut hay in may?.

spring rainshowers?.

bluesbreaker59

Fresh cut hay - brings me back to the farm, and working with dad and grandpa

Hog shit (hey I live in Iowa, remember) - the family farm

Ruffles perfume - reminds me of mom

Tommy girl - brings back way too many memories of my ex

Fried Chicken and Gravy - the little cafe down home, I went to since I was 6 months old

So yeah, I'm a country boy, that's alright, I like it that way.

UPDATE

by FadingELD in

i would like to think everyone for thier the support through my famalies trying times.

well things did not turn out the way i was hoping it would have so far.

my wife has not come home as of yet and has no plans to.

bluesbreaker59

Just to echo everyone else, hang in there man. I've been following your story, for a while and it was very touching for me to hear of a man, leaving the organization for his DF'd children. It touched me because it gives me hope that one day, my father may do the same for me. I miss him terribly.

Parents smoked pot !

so my parents said they aren't going to be at my wedding.

i called my uncle to try and talk them into it.

being since he isn't a witness.

bluesbreaker59

Ok, well this is truly a tough spot to be in for you, and not enviable at all I'm afraid. Once witnesses have their minds set on something, they aren't likely to change it. In your situation, I assume you are DF'd. If they go to your wedding, and its found out, they will be DF'd, because they would be "sharing in your sins". If you go tell the elders on them for smoking pot, you don't have "two witnesses", witness them smoking pot, so they would have to admit that they did it, and if I was a betting man, I'd say they'll deny it to the elders, and since you are DF'd the elders won't believe you, they'll believe your parents. If I were you, I'd give them a card, telling them how much you love them, and detailing that they shouldn't miss their own daughter's wedding, and if they do, then they will also be turning their back on any future grandchildren as well. Best of luck to you in this very precocious situation.

Vikings vs Cowboys

Actually if you wanna talk hype that is T.O. , one of the most overhyped players in the league, he DROPS more balls than any other receiver in the league. Jason Witten is Romo's best target, and Patrick Crayton is developing nicely as well. I'm really looking forward to Terry Glenn coming back, that'll really move this team up, in my opinion. And check out Romo's stats in the New England game, they were actually pretty good, he only threw the one interception. New England simply outplayed them. Also that playoff game, I assume you are talking about the muffed hold, c'mon, let it go already, muffed holds happen all the time, USUALLY the starting QB isn't even the holder.

Big Tex (High Five) nice to see another Dallas fan, that comparison to Leaf is still one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. To all the Romo haters... There is one man in the NFL with more TD passes than him right now, Tom Brady, that was as of last week, I'm guessing that's still the same. ALSO, Dallas had the highest ranked offense in the league heading into that New England game, the announcers made mention of it a couple times. As far as "several" AFC teams better than Dallas, I totally agree with New England, obviously. However, Dallas beat the Colts last year, remember? I think they can hang with them this year too. But no doubt in my mind, the Patriots will win the Superbowl as long as they have no MAJOR injuries. Romo, is NOT Favre, or Aikman, or Brady or Manning, etc. But for a 2nd year QB, I'd also say that he's a very gifted young man, with great instincts. Remember when Favre was young? He took chances, scrambled and had a strong arm with good receivers. He also screwed up plenty, I watched the Pack every weekend with my family, who were all Packer fans. Now Favre may go down as the greatest QB ever, according to some. Just give Tony time to grow, he's doing just fine, by everyone's standards. He even had a good game against New England, but Dallas defense just had no answers for Wes Welker in the slot, that's what killed them all game.
