What I Want For Christmas
by starfish422 inrobert ingersoll, 1833-1899: if i had the power to produce exactly what i want for next christmas, i would have all the kings and emperors resign and allow the people to govern themselves.. i would have all the nobility crop their titles and give their lands back to the people.
i would have the pope throw away his tiara, take off his sacred vestments, and admit that he is not acting for god - is not infallible - but is just an ordinary italian.
i would have all the cardinals, archbishops, bishops, priests and clergymen admit that they know nothing about theology, nothing about hell or heaven, nothing about the destiny of the human race, nothing about devils or ghosts, gods or angels.

More KH dreams.
by starfish422 ini keep dreaming about being at the kh.
last night i dreamt i was there and two "worldly" people came in to do some shady business transaction with each other.

More regrettable foods...this time from Weight Watchers
by starfish422 inthe regrettable foods site had me splitting my sides; here is a collection of weight watchers recipe cards from 1974. they are as gross, and as hilariously funny.
the names they came up with for the recipes are astounding.
here's the link: http://www.candyboots.com/wwcards.html best not to read while you're eating or drinking anything, unless you have some paper towels handy.

Embarassing moments you witnessed?
by starfish422 in.
not yours; but those of others you had the good fortune to watch happen.
my favourite is the time we had the co and his wife for lunch after field service, and my mum swore in front of them.

Your reason for remaining anonymous on the boards?
by starfish422 injust wondering why you choose not to use too many identifying facts about yourself on the boards?
is it to protect yourself, or others?.
for me, i have nothing to lose where the dubs are concerned, and initially my profile was pretty extensive.

My poor non-JW grandmother!! (long)
by starfish422 ini am so annoyed right now i could just spit.
first, some background info: my brother's mother-in-law (a jw) seems to feel as though she has some special connection to my gramma because they have both lost their husbands.
she's a good 10 - 15 years younger than gramma; and, truth be told, gramma doesn't especially like her.

JW marriages: happy/unhappy
by starfish422 ini've been wondering how many jws have gotten married too quickly, without knowing their prospective "mate" well enough, and have ended up really unhappy.
it always seemed to me that a couple would be dating for, like, 6 or 9 months and get engaged, have a 9 month engagement and be married; often because they bought the "no sex before marriage" garbage.
i'm sure that there *are* happy jw marriages out there; and certainly being unhappily married isn't the sole property of jws.
