My Mother
by jozb5 inthis is a continuance of what i related under the weird jw dude topic.. when this happened i think i was about 20 or 21 (1985 or '86), before i married my first husband.
i was living at home and still attending meeting but i had stopped studying when i was 19. i guess my mom felt it was time for me to settle down (i was not dating anyone - how could i?
i wasn't baptised.

"Against our will...."
by Dia inwe who were 'raised in it' and had no choice about becoming part of this goofy religion, let's discuss our experiences collectively.. personally, i always feel that it was like having parents who were nazi's or members of the kkk.
almost no one can possibly understand what you've been through.
it was so radical.. and so harmful.

Prostitution in Isreal

Good Lord! Thats one big Weenie!
by OUTLAW ini just love to play jokes on people,and assemblys were a good place to do it.they were developing new products to be sold at the consession stands and my elder dad was in charge.the new fast food they were about to introduce was called a "pronto pup".a weiner on a wooden shish-ka-bob stick,dipped in batter,then deep fried.they were trying to come up with a batter that would give the weiner a good coating,taste good, and come out golden brown.i was in charge of the first batch.i couldn`t let this opportunity go.i dipped,cooked,re-dipped,cooked,re-dipped..ect,ect,untill that baby was about the size of a football.it looked perfect,except it was so dam big.
(you wouldn`t want to get hit in the head with it!
lol).finally everyone came back to see how the first batch came out.they couldn`t believe their eyes,these things were humungus,why did the batter puff out so big?what had gone wrong?

hi, again.
by forgetmenot ini've decided to start posting again.
no one of any significance probably noticed i was gone, being kind of new here when i left any way.
i have no controversial subjects to bring up, just that i'm lonely and scared, but that's hardly controversial.
