we have a bigg artikel in km abot our wuie on how to treat them in diffrent situations, not so much new things, but they confirm this harder treatment on dfd, as we have 1981.. not so happy for this, i think it is a bigg misstake to dont take this occasion to change to some more loving wuie.i can not follow why they do like this perhaps they are draw this to the end of the lione, but who are take the punnish for this, if not the averge jw, who i think dont like this so very much.. so i can not follow who they think, perhaps we have wolfs among us, who hurt ther members.. .

Bad Association asked:

matty- are you certain it is the aug issue? how do you come about rec'ing it so early? I only ask as I may show up at the kh & cheerfully with huge grin boldly give a "HELLO!" to all in attendance, so was wondering the date they will be covering it- appreciated if you would possibly follow up with the date- thanks

Matty or ignored one please answer BA's question. I'm also curious to know. This is very important to me for personal reasons. I need to see this article and know when it will be studied. Is it the August KM? Like BA, I ask because it seems too early for you guys to already have your August KMs. Please let us know.

American Idol, Who's watching?

by TheStar in

am i the only shmuck on this board watching this every week?

please say i'm not.

TheStar

Friendly,

I agree, something about Mark Scott struck me last night as well. He has a great voice, I didn't remember him from previous shows. You're right, there is something about him but that's not who I voted for. hehe... I do feel he might be one of the three that moves on tonight.

My guess for tonight is Kristin Holt, RJ Helton and Mark Scott..... We shall see...

Last weeks show was so tough, they were all so talented but I guessed correctly.

Wild Turkey,

I figured many would not like such a show. Thanks for being nice about it.

Friendly,

Whew! Thank goodness I'm not the only shmuck...

This particular show interests me because as a child an as a teen it was my dream to be an "American Idol". I've long since given up on that dream but I guess a part of me still wishes and I can't help but live vicariously through these kids on the show. (That sounds pathetic but it's true)

I voted last night and tried again today but got a busy signal. I only voted because I found out one of the contestants is from my city. For confidential reasons, I can not say who or what city, sorry.

I'll be very surprised if Justin doesn't become the American Idol winner. I kinda wish someone else would win because Justin has Super Star written all over him and I know any record label would sign him up after this. I'd kinda like someone else to get the opportunity.

Cygnus is in bad shape

just so i don't miss anybody who is interested.... my results from the ekg and the echogram showed a severe leak in a heart valve.

i am going for an angiogram on the 15th but the cardiologist says the liklihood is great that i will need open heart surgery.

rare for a 30 year old but if necessary, it is necessary.. no word yet on the results of the blood work for liver enzymes and hepatitis.

TheStar

I know it will all turn out just fine for you Cyg. Hang in there.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Hugs,

Star

Happy Ruddy Independence Day

sorry for upsetting sensitive souls in here, wish you all a great and enjoyable day on the 4th of july.. mark

Amazing,

Let me summarize for you.

Invisible hear seems to think Americans are "ignorant fools" and that we Americans can not comprehend how foolish we look to the rest of the world because of the fact the we have such little understanding of the problems on the worldwide front.

Invisible posed the question as to why "Americans lick ass to each other so much and spout so much crap all the time?"

He also wanted to understand why Americans are so obviously stupid as a nation?

Wait not just stupid but arrogant and stupid.

Didn't want you to miss out Amazing, maybe you can answer his questions.

Edited to include: I forget these gems that invisible felt the need to spout off.

"but in policy decisions affecting other nations you do come across as dumb to say the least. Whats more, even the WT was started off in your wunnerful country, dumb by anyones stretch of the imagination!!"

"But Americans are funny, you do collectively ask for a piss take to be taken out of you. Would love to visit there one day, would be entertaining to say the least."

Then later asked all of us to go F***k ourselves. Isn't that nice?

Mega,

Eatzi's is one of my favorite places. Just the smell in that place make me salivate! I just wish they had a better seating arrangement.

Taco Cabana! Now that is the place to go at 2am on a Saturday or Sunday morning after you've been to ever club in the city and have had a bit too much to drink!

There's a Spanish saying that Menudo (the soup) is the perfect medicine for hangovers.

That brings back so many good old memories, I haven't done that since long before my JW days. I must get my life back in order! LOL...

News on Crisis of Conscience !

by Amazing in

jw
friends

since 1983, the book, crisis of conscience, by raymond franz has taken on a life of its own ... translated now into many languages.

while at brci, i saw crisis of conscience in spanish, portuguese, italian and others languages, even japanese ... japan has long been the love child nation that the watchtower uses to beat the western jws over the head ... more than this, though ... .

crisis of conscience is now in its fourth edition, being revised in april 2002 !!!

TheStar

Amazing,

Thank you for the info on CoC. I heard from another poster here that met Ray and Cynthia that they live a very frugal life. I often think about them and all that they sacrificed in the borg., I appreciate both of them so very much for all they have done to help others.

I think I will donate my current Spanish and English copies of CoC to the local library and order two new ones.
