Once upon a time one of my neighbors came back from the grocery store and started carrying the sacks in. Then she asked her cat to help out. He didn't say anything. She told him "Thomas, help me carry in the sacks of groceries." He didn't. She kept on at him though. Still no help. "Well F.U. then Thomas!" Didn't faze him. That is one cool headed cat.

First off...FIVE cats? Yikes, as Felix would say. I once knew a girl that had 22 cats though. THAT was too many! Why do I visualize a line of cats waiting to use one of these machines. hmmmm
I would like to know what my one cat is thinking, I think. I'm sure it's usually about food though. -

Goodbye to the Board
by dedalus inim leaving the board, and am compelled to announce it.
but there are a few things i want to say first -- some recollections that (perhaps incongruously) seem germane to my leave-taking of jw.com.
1) my first post was also my first thread, written in the summer of 2000 (on h2o, actually).

But as an ex-Witness, slowly aging and stagnating in the denouement of my experience, I can only fail.
Here, here! I don't understand it but it sounds impressive so I'll drink to it.
Happy trails dedalus. -

Do the Elders know about this?
by meadow77 in.
what kind of an example are we setting for young witness girls regarding modesty?
i personally think she looks nice, although maybe she should try for some darker colors; but because of her jw affiliation, it justs makes one stagger at the double standards.

Now, now. I'm sure this photo was taken at an assembly and she just is just exiting the stage after her part in the "Soddam & Gomorrah" drama. See, now doesn't that make sense? Now I'm off to see if I can help straighten out that nonsense over in the "Ghosts" thread.

Spirit Forces
by Ariell indoes any of the stuff david blane has done (i think this guy is the real deal) or any other magician renew your belief in angels/demons/ghosts if you had lost it after leaving the borg?
has a physhic or other spirit medium ever convince you that someone you knew or loved has crossed over to the otherside?
have you ever encountered anything nonhuman?

I got interested in illusions & ilussionists years ago and even built a couple of stage illusions. I wasn't a performer but I just loved the effects and as I learned "how it's done" I started watching the audiences for their reactions. Once you learn how a trick is done it ceases to be magic more often than not and the most amazing things are usually so simple (in principle). This goes for card tricks, stage shows, psychics...all of it.
At the state fair here in Dallas two years ago, me and my g/f were walking about and saw this large group of people watching some kind of act. The looks on these people's faces were a mix of disgust, horror and bewilderment! When we got to where I could see the stage I couldn't help but laugh out loud and the people around us were mortified that I was laughing!
On the stage was a guy with no lower torso and HE was making all kinds of wise cracks about his condition (like "can you guess who wears the pants in MY family?") so I joined in making fun of him too. That only egged him on and it was fun but people were getting mad at me! Even my g/f couldn't believe what I was doing so I had to let her in on how it was done. I had actually made a version of this illusion so I knew exactly how it worked but this was the first time I had seen it in a show and I was amazed at how real it lookedThe point being that the majority of this audience were completely fooled by a simple trick. It's ALL in the presentation and THAT is what makes a psychic's act work also. There's no box on a stage so you don't tend to think about the possibility of any gimmicks being used but there usually is. They're good actors but that's ALL they are.
