here in california, i have to get a smog, which is an emissions test in order to register my vehicle.
does your state require an emissions test?
a regular inspection of the vehicle, or none?
I live in Idaho too .. ada and canyon counties have emmissions .. where are you in the state... maksym
prior canyon county didn't .. but now they do it is twenty minutes away and there is no visible gaps anymore between the two, and everyone in canyon county drives into boise to work.. so it was much needed... the air quality still isn't great here at times
registration has gone up quite a bit recently too..
TT
let's keep it really simple.
that way we won't get confused.. things happen.. what can we say about things that happen?.
things that happen are possible!.
great thread and to quote another great man... Ricky Bobby..." THAT JUST HAPPENED!!!"
what is/are your regrets?
do u wish that you'd have pursued something or dealt differently with a situation?.
I was born in....... didn't get a collge education... or going into millitary service... instead of field service, which by the way I remember being told repeatedly, that know one would ever regret ... wasting your youth in Jehovah's Watchtower service...
Some of the things I've said to people regarding their faith...or their certain fate...
I regret that I never really have had a dream, of my own ... That my lifes ben on hold for nothing....

just a little experience i had a while back.
thought it was funny so here we go.

..specifically, the suffering of animals.
you can talk about free will/sin/people choosing to not listen to god etc to explain human suffering being allowed.. but how can you love a god that allows animals, that haven't sinned or chosen to not have anything to do with god, to have their short lives ended in often long, drawn out, painful ways.
i could list stories i've read that would probably make you feel ill, but i'm not looking to shock anyone or start an emotional debate.
What does the Bible say on the matter? .... let's consult the Watchtower to find out.....
why is no one ever concerned about plant life ... suffering droughts and what not... and being eating ...
I remember when I was young, Mom saying all life as we know it comes from other life.. so therefore there has to be a GOD .. thats the proof...
and now I'm thinking all life is sustained by the death of other life... so what does that prove...
''well there's one thing you got ta ask yourself punk....you felling lucky...well do ya punk".....clint eastwood dirty harry.. "it's life jim but not as we know it" capt kirk star treck..
Anything lost can be found again, except time. ~Sam Jackson..... the movie is "Fresh" 1994
saw them, not sure which tour, think it was that one or the one after with Cheap Trick.. old school..
how have the numbers of the anointed been doing - staying steady or finally declining?
that was always a puzzle to me how that could stay so steady..
This is what I feel is the most telling, I was one who as I've said before, out in 87, decided to die in armegeddon with everyone else rather than be miserable in the congerations of jugdes.. so while I was waiting for the big A all these years, I was alway's thinking if I could just get some info on partakers I would know how close we were....
WOW .. loved getting on here and seeing the graph's some one put up on JW number's .. real eye opener.. then by them questioning the validityof the of other partakers... doesn't that bring into question.. their (GB) own...
i looked all over for a place to introduce myself and either i'm completely blind or i missed it.
i figured i'd just post it here.. okay.. hello to everyone.
my name's tabitha.
welcome.... I'm glad you got out .. this is great place for a number of things ... just don't get addicted to it it like I am... LOL.. it's a lot of fun and a great place for information..
Welcome .. and cheers!!
