Too funny, Simon!
I'm told that, given enough beers, dog biscuits are pretty tasty.

angharad has abandoned me and gone on a girls night out!.
to cut a long story short - i'm starving to death and the end may be only minutes away .... there is a large white box in a place called "kitchen" (hey, it lights up when you open the door!
) and apparently this can be used with a "noven" or "micro-drive" (or was it "wave"?

well, my brother and his wife came over to my parent's house to visit today while i was home.. to make a long story short, while my brother and his wife were chatting with my mother in the living room, my 1 and a half year old nephew reilly walked into the kitchen where i was making a caesar salad.. he walked over towards me and was smiling, how can any normal adult resist the innocent smile of a child who is your relative?
i picked him up and gave him a huge hug, and told him i loved him.. as i was holding my nephew in my arms, my brother walked into the room.
he was smack dab in the middle of an in-depth conversation about jehovah with my mother and his wife, and i admit i was rolling my eyes listening to him spew about the "truth" and "the only means for salvation in the last days of this wicked system" even though when i confronted him with info on the un, blood, russell gravesite, rape changes, exclusivity, etc, he had no response for me because he was dumbfounded and lost for words.
Reborn,
Sorry to hear. It does sound like that was a planned little rant. Try to remember that he's brainwashed. Maybe one day you'll both be sitting around with your nephew shaking your heads over how dumb you both were to have bought all that crap.

oops. that wasn't a remake, he just stole the beat and didn't give them a writing credit.
once upon a time there was an evil antagonist of god named ha satan.
this evildoer thought of many ways to make worldlings oppose god's covenant people.
he finally got a bright idea.
accuracy,
I see where you're coming from, but by painting with such broad strokes, aren't you guilty of the same thing? By focusing on the few extra-bitter ex-JWs who might see this as nothing but an agenda, don't you further the suffering of the victims by minimizing the work that some have done to help them?
Do you honestly think Bill Bowen (and others) was just a disgruntled JW elder, who dreamed up an excuse to criticize the society?
If you think some ex-JWs are focusing on the wrong thing, then you can help by setting an example for them... focus on what's important--the victims, and changing a corrupt policy.

Don't feel bad, recovering. I've been here over almost a year and they just now started letting me use the public restrooms. [Edit: Oh, you say a year is 12 months?]
I've seen people sharing what looked like a secret handshake, but everyone is mum on the subject.
I don't think you can really apply. One day you'll be walking down the street, and a black van with tinted windows will come screeching to a halt. Three people clad all in black will jump out and throw a hood over your head. You'll be driven around for two hours until you come to an abandoned warehouse, where you'll be interrogated to verify your sympathies. If you pass all the tests, you'll be a member of the secret brotherhood.
If not, well... some people never come back.
Hmmm

I agree with Hilda.
It is a sham the way the WT society claims to protect the children, when it takes a law by caesar to force them to do what a "bible-trained conscience" should have deemed a no-brainer... report pedophiles to the proper authorities so the children can be protected!
Instead they threaten their victims with shunning to protect their precious reputation. (By the way, that reputation is only precious within their tiny community. The rest of the world sees Witnesses as nothing more than a slightly wacky fringe group who don't celebrate holidays or take blood.)

BoozeRunner, I thought George Benson was the original writer of that song.
Flower, I agree. Luther's version was kind of flat.
The other song you're looking for is Killing Me Softly With His Song, by Roberta Flak
