  ok all you guys out there in the know.

  i've always wondered why in jc's elders worry about tape recorders being on.

  i mean this is a jc not the fbi.

  Danny, Happy Birthday!

  I just finished writing a thesis about the dubs & may continue on to do so for my PhD - it's pretty good therapy!!

  Sure do! Well, I've never been to Nimbin ... but I've been to Byron a couple of times on holiday. I love the north coast - I'm in the Gong myself. Bit colder!

  JWs and breastfeeding past infancy

  my jw mother breastfed my sibs so long they remember it.

  one she stopped feeding when she went to kingergarten; i kid you not.

  my mother justified it by saying moses' mother breastfed him until whatever age and the bible encourages it.

  I have never seen a feeding mother take her top off, wave her ya-yas around, massage them in a sexual fashion, and then feed the baby.
  
  I'm for more of this LOL at Sith! I remember one of the sisters breastfeeding till the kid was about 5, but that was a Dutch thing, not a Witness thing! I breastfed until my baby was 7 months old, & I would have gone longer if I could. It's natural, free, great for baby & bonding, & very convenient! I think that breastfeeding in public, as long as it's fairly discreet, should be encouraged! Mum's the word!

  hi, a link on another thread made me wonder if anyone here has written any poetry about dubdom.

  here is my contribution: a poem i wrote during a circuit assembly that i was absolutely hating.

  tell me what you think (don't be too honest!).

  'Faith'

  A shallow pool

  of crabs fighting

  The tide goes out.

  The waters lapping

  Suck my toes

  They suck my toes,

  And my nose.

  Hey, there's heaps more where that came from!

  i just saw a few of my old jw buddies as i was driving home from the gym.

  i started honking my horn manically and swerved towards them.. they all kinda jumped.

  then i waved and gave em a big smile as i zoomed past.

  Sounds good, GBL. I'll bet they'll be talking about you for ages, trying to work out what you were doing!

  What's the most thought-provoking novel you've ever read?

  by lucky in

  i'd have to say for me that it was ayn rand's the fountainhead.

  even though i don't agree with a lot of her philosophy, it definitely made me stumble around in a thought-induced haze for a few weeks after reading it.

  Evilforce, I was given 'the alchemist' for my b'day but haven't read it yet - I'll put it on my list now.

  I'm a history buff & a detective story buff (reading as escape, not thought!) - so great novels don't usually get me. I will always hold a place in my heart for 'Anna Karenina' by Tolstoy, 'Pride & Prejudice' by Austen, 'Exodus' & 'Mila 18' by Leon Uris, & I recently read 'White Teeth' by Zadie Smith, which was quite good! Oh, and 'the Lighthouse' by Virginia Woolf.
