never ever leaveyour child alone with a jw?.
i have friends who left their daughter over a weekend with her cousins.
she came back with crying fits, nightmares and general nervousness about the world ending.
I always figured if I had a child, or hooked up with someone that did.. they wouldn't be allowed in my parent's house alone. No matter what you tell them, they will not respect your wishes (they believe God's will that the child be indoxtrinated superceeds your ignorant wishes.)

.
dozens of us cities may have entire neighbourhoods bulldozed as part of drastic "shrink to survive" proposals being considered by the obama administration to tackle economic decline.
I employed the same strategy in SimCity when the economy tanked. Pause game, bulldoze underperforming areas, ensure electricity remains connected... unpause.
I sure hope my neighborhood never gets mysteriously bulldozed in the blink of an eye at the cost of $1 per acre.

this month is starting out really bad.
we just bought a 92 honda accord and it was running just fine.
i get in it yesterday and it won't start.
Might try a quick look in the main fusebox, it's usually easy to check yourself. Many cars have two boxes, one in the interior of the car for accessories, and another box under the hood for the engine circuts, which is where you'll want to look.
I just had the starter fuse go out on me last month on one of my cars. Somewhat mysterious, but I don't drive the care often and it has been raining a lot lately.

i quite like the letter of complaint.
.
I guess noah was also loony minded for trying to warn people.
Well seeing as how there is no good evidence to support the claim of a global flood, and loads of counter-evidence (delicate stone arches that are millions of years old.. the fact that all plant life would die if submurged for a year, etc)... yeah he certainly must have - especially when it didn't flood.
Imagine having THAT fruit as your neighbor.

it's happening here to teachers i know personally.. and in your community?.

Take with a grain of salt (Hanlon's Razor):
I've heard a conspiracy theory that after losing the Dover trial, the creationists who had taken control of public school boards adopted a new strategy - to sabotage public schools with poor performing teachers and poorly spent funding. According to the theory, if they can keep public school grades low, then private school will appear more attractive to parents, and in private schools evolution can be tossed out the window and creationism taught as fact.

its getting close to assembly time and my wife will be heading up to salt lake to attend the assembly there with her relatives so i will be on my own for a week.
i'm lining up my favorite cult movies to watch while she is away.
here are some of my favorites: the meaning of life, idiocracy, swingers, ghost world.
The Mouse That Roared
Wow. I had totally forgotten about that movie. There's nothing like a movie where the doomsday device is a combination football & toaster.

i just read this on the topix board and was curious to know how some of you would react to it:.
our main responsibility toward the unwashed masses is to preach the good news to them, not forge real relationships.
unless they want to clean up their act and serve jehovah with us.
Relationships forged under the strict condition that the individual must abandon individuality and conform to a process of life that is intollerant toward independent thought, ignorant of human needs, and centers around dictated behavior - is no relationship at all.

Aww, someone beat me to Attack of the Killer Tomatos.
There is High Strung, but good luck finding it anywhere other than bittorent.
I'll also throw in A Scanner Darkly and Men at Work if they're not out there already.

ooooo, the sparkley colors!
i just found out that i have migraine auras without the headache and what they are.
it's pretty but irritating trying to read and watch tv.
From age 19 until 28, I experienced terrible migraines with the auras 2-3 times per week. The worst part was, they came in pairs - if I had a migraine on the right side of my head one day, I knew I was doomed to a left-side migraine the next day. I could usually feel them comming on when I woke up, and by noon I'd close the door to my office and just.. zone out. Around 6-9 pm they would end.
Never knew for sure what caused them.

cars now come with a secret "black box" that records your speed and your lane usage in motor vehicles.
these devices are so sophisticated that there is now legislation aimed at improving the moral vocabulary of american citizens.
the boxes, beginning in 2010, will monitor speech within the vehicle and listen for predefined curse words.
You lost me as soon as you said "and your lane usage in motor vehicles". How exactly would the black box know what lane you're in, and why would it care? :P
They do have the 'black box' though that police can attach in your car without a warrent. It's basically a GPS that phones home. The police then know not only where your vehicle was at any given time, they can even monitor your position in real time.
