Tetragrammaton Tattoo

by cabasilas in

last week was finals week at the college.

as i was studying for one of my tests i noticed this one guy (early 20s, muscular, four day beard, average college student looking) getting on the elevator next to where i was sitting.

then i noticed he had a rather unusual tattoo.

only me

The Tetragramaton is used a lot in magick. Lots of magickally inclined people in university. Or maybe he belongs to another religion that uses that name.

Does anyone here celebrate holidays? Why?

by Rocky_Girl in

i didn't originally celebrate anything, but when my oldest son started school i decided that it was unfair to put him through what i went through in school.

i have to admit that i am loving the holidays, even though some of that old mindset tries to make me feel guilty.

we focus on what the holidays mean to us as a family and enjoying time together.

only me

I celebrate everything too . It has been very healing to celebrate,especially Christmas, perhaps because I remember my grandparents celebrating and

that was a happy memory. I don't have many happy childhood memories.

people were created by god as heterosexual, but some are today homosexual as a result of imperfection - punishment for disobedience of adam a eve..... but why there is so much homosexuality among god created animals?

Snoozy- I posted that I have lesbian dogs. I meant that quite literally. It started out as a dominance behavior but has turned into a very affectionate relationship. The older dog is spayed and the younger is not. It is not related to the heat cycle. I don't really want to get graphic, but they take turns with one humping and the other licking until they are finished. It is by no means just smelling and licking.

They also give each other presents such as their treats and groom each other.

I also have a neutered male cat who masterbates, but that's another topic altogether.

Picture of Jesus in the KH

by startingover in

friends

a jw friend told me that a newly remodeled kh in the area has a big picture of jesus with his hand extended in the entrance.

since it's a picture that is from the publications many say it's ok. sounds really out of place to me.

it tells me the jw's are going mainstream..

only me

There was a large picture of Jesus in the foyer of our old Kingdom Hall. between two congregations. I don't have a picture and they have redecorated since we moved so I don't know if it's still there.

There are also murals of Jesus at the Assembly Hall I used to attend. And a creepy picture of children playing with a snake.

David Carradine commits suicide

Carradine's Family, Friends Dispute Suicide Theory
Today 2:41 PM PDT by Josh Grossberg and Whitney English

Now that he no longer walks the Earth, David Carradine is genuinely missed.

Friends, family and fans are reeling from the news of the sudden, mysterious death today of the star of Kung Fu and Kill Bill.

"My Uncle David was a brilliantly talented, fiercely intelligent and generous man. He was the nexus of our family in so many ways, and drew us together and kept us connected. I adored him as a child, and as an adult I admired and respected him," actress and Carradine niece Martha Plimpton says in a statement to E! News. "We will all miss him terribly, and are so grateful for everyone's condolences."

Celebrity fans like Kirstie Alley and The Office's Rainn Wilson took to Twitter to celebrate the late actor's legacy.

Thai police say a maid discovered the 72-year-old Carradine's partially clothed body hanging in a wardrobe in his luxury Bangkok hotel suite. There was no sign of foul play, and so far authorities believe the death to be a suicide.

But that theory is being disputed by those who knew him best.

"He was a very strong person, and I don't think it's likely at all that it was a suicide," mother-in-law Betty Fraser exclusively tells E! News.

Warner Bros. Television

Despite police statements to the contrary, Fraser says, "I think it was either an accident or a break-in because it was a large hotel and [he was] American."

Fraser says her daughter, Carradine's widow, Anne, was informed of the bad news early this morning and is understandably in a very "fragile" state.

"Anne called us last night in the middle of the night," she says. "She wasn't with him. This was a very short shoot, with a French film company. We only heard that he was going just a week or two before he left."

The family has gathered at the couple's Los Angeles-area home and is in touch with the U.S. embassy and investigators.

Fraser says Carradine had been in good spirits a month ago, when the family got together for the San Luis Obispo Film Festival in central California. "He was great," she recalls. "He loved riding horses. Anne and David came up with the kids and it was really a very nice affair. They put us up in a nice hotel there."

Carradine's rep, Chuck Binder, also flatly rejected the notion that the actor took his life.

"It's all under police investigation. We definitely don't believe it was a suicide," says Binder, adding that Carradine "was a great guy and a great client and a great friend."

And Kill Bill costar Vivica Fox tells PopEater, "I would have never, ever thought that he would kill himself. I find that to be almost unbelievable that he hung himself. He did not seem like the person that would take his own life. It just seems so out of character."

But Carradine did suffer from depression, ex-wife Marina Anderson tells RadarOnline, and the actor himself admitted to having dark thoughts, according to Britain's Telegraph.

The newspaper's website reprinted a 2004 interview with the martial-arts enthusiast in which he said he had grappled with thoughts of killing himself.

"Look, there was a period in my life when I had a single action Colt 45, loaded, in my desk drawer. And every night I'd take it out and think about blowing my head off, and then decide not to and go on with my life. Put it back in the drawer and open up the laptop and continue writing my autobiography or whatever," he was quoted as saying. "But it was just to see."

Aniron- Are there any lesbian animals?

Yes, there are lesbian animals. We have two female dogs who are lesbian. One is spayed and one is not. It is an anytime activity, not related to the unspayed one's heat cycle.

At first we thought they were trying to be dominate over each other, but no, they are very affectionate and are just doing what feels good.

At this point, even my JW husband just shakes his head and ignores them.
