Do you think the British are a proud nation?
by not bitter ini think we are to a degree but i think its on a different level to the americans.
the impression i get (from watching us tv and news) is that the majority of americans come across as being proud to be american and quite a possitive nation.
whereas us brits will display pride as a nation when we have to.

Tips for Dealing with Controlling People when You can't say drop dead.
by Band on the Run ini was wondering what tips/advice others have gathered from dealing with controlling people(a la jws) when one is enmeshed and can't terminate the relationship?
how do you carve out and maintain boundaries when you must dance with the devil?.
my rage scares me b/c i am reminded of my time in the jws..

You just have to stand your ground and protect your personal boundaries. - Flipper
Very true Mr. Flipper. That's how I managed to end things with my ex-husband. Controlling people rely on getting you to change your mind. Standing your ground and sticking to your guns takes away their power.
Be aware of the little things within any kind of relationship that gives the other person control. Things like never letting you choose which film to watch, dictating what you should wear/listen to etc. A controlling person will often attack these areas of your life first. We can see how the WTBT$ does this, but within a personal relationship the controlling person may be more subtle, perhaps seeming to jokingly mock your personal tastes and suggesting that theirs are better, especially in front of others where you will feel pressure to conform. If this has happened to you, then I suggest working on these areas first to regain control. Then hopefully the other person will either respect your other boundaries too, or you will feel more confident in standing your ground on bigger issues.
((Hugs)) I have been there. I lost many friends, personal possessions (clothing ripped from my body, items smashed up in rage etc) and had to rediscover who I am. If the use of violent force is involved in trying to control you then please make arrangements to GET THE HELL OUT!

JW-like link from an old co-worker
by donny ina few days ago i received a friend request from an a guy whom i used to work with many years ago.
i accepted his request and this morning i receieved a salutation from him as well as a link to a video (posted below).
much of what is in the video sounds as if it came straight from the watchtower such as the use of "christendom" as all other churches, the paganism that permeates christianity, the removal of god's name from the bible.

Urrgghh!!! Yes, I've seen them before. I was accosted by a middle-aged man and a young boy (prob about 9 or 10 years old) on my way into work one day around the time I was formally DA'd. They gave me a tract featuring some of that artwork. I went and alerted my managers that they were outside and had them removed from the car park!
Zid, I love your findings. Fantasy art rocks.

I'm a massive fan of the original, but I find Apocalyptica's version to be hauntingly beautiful. Also, it's very calming to just close your eyes and concentrate on the raw sound of the cellos.
