dungbeetle and brymichmom delivered a stuffed lamb to the downey, ca kingdom hall at 12116 woodruff avenue today.
present were a reporter and a photographer from the downey patriot newspaper.
while we were placing the lamb at the front door, an elder approached us and asked us why we were there.
I guess that Elder's pride and anger stopped him from saying 'no comment,' later on he'll realize he put his foot in his month. He might get discipline for speaking to the press. I could see his name in the paper now "Bro. so and so said...."
Please let us know when it goes to the press. Thanks - LL

pretty simple for the time being but no doubt it will change and develop over time.. i will do a banner ad to link to it and would encourage anyone who can publicise it to do so.
feel free to copy the banner when it is posted on here.
Lovely - I can't wait to add my name to the list. This is what caught my eye:
Looks like the BORG will have to re-write their history books again b/c they didn't figure the internet would trigger their down fall.

my family was playing around the other day, humming different songs from tv shows and getting the other one to guess what show it was.
then we asked what song best describes you.. my family agreed, mine would be ghetto girl, by little bow wow.
lol.
Imagine ~ By John Lennon
Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...
Imagine there's no countries,
It isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...
Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say Im a dreamer,
but Im not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one
being in the org for a very long time i have seen people do all kinds of things .
one thing that i have never really seen discussed is how common it is for an elder to have a mistress in the background.
oh he may not be actually sleeping with her, but i personally for over 20 years was a second "wife "to an elder.
Wednesday - You are definitely on to something - I've seen it since I was a youth.
Thanks for pointing that out.
Peace - LL.
my favorite relative, my great aunt passed away yesterday.
a little over a year ago, she suffered a series of strokes.
the nusing home she was in was close to a thousand miles away, but i went to see her whenever i could.
Your aunt sounds like a true success story. Success not in a monetary way, but by leaving a seed in you and others to grow/Flor-ish.
Peace - LL
i have never felt more helpless in my life.
my grandma is sick, dying, and there is nothing i can do.
when i look at her, i see this echo of a woman that once was vital, strong and alive.
You are a beautiful women and I'm sure your grandmother knows that, you are giving her all you can - Your love. I feel your pain - I'm in a simular situation (will post it later.)
Peace - LL

greetings from the uk!
we were invited to a conference to speak on sl issues and had a very productive weekend.
it appears many here are very aware of the abuse issue and want to get involved.
Ain't No Stopping Us Now :)

bruce baker, who led the press conference a week ago, in seattle, just called to tell me that the reporter who wrote the article for the seattle times, had called him to say there were 36 victims who replied to her after her article came out.
they all have told her the information is correct, but that they are fearful of "coming out" because they are still active jw's, and are in fear of being df'd.
she is planning an in-depth article in the times to correspond with the march on september 27.. stay tuned.
Like Whoa! This is BIG. Can't wait for the results.
Thanks for the info.
Peace - LL
