Love it, Leslie! Here's one for your bar: And one for Jerry:

The title of this topic were the concluding words of the following article: http://diversitychronicle.wordpress.com/2013/12/05/pope-francis-condemns-racism-and-declares-that-all-religions-are-true-at-historic-third-vatican-council/ It seems the Catholic Church is trying to reposition itself as more 'liberal' and 'tolerant', Of course they could only do this by completely watering down the bible's message. Or should I say, completely disregarding it. The first thing that popped into my mind when I read the concluding paragraph was: Don't they know what the bible says at James 4:4? It says: "friendship with the world is enmity with God".

Once a year is reminder enough.

No, but maybe just a time out.

Oh honey, you're ok. Perhaps you could limit yourself to 2 posts of a couple pic each. You have cute tastes but too many is too many. We love you anyway. Yes, please come out of the corner now. All's forgiven, right folks?

Yes, all's forgiven, you can come out of the corner now, please, and be assured we all love you. We all have our moments! As Casey Stengel once said, There comes a time in every man's life, and I've had plenty in mine.

This is the 10th year i have created a book and in the past have sent it to friends and family but many have expressed a desire for a copy so here it is. Its more complete than others out their and next years version will have the complete NWT 2103 not just the #2 talk in this years version. I hope this helps those with time restraints to be able to study easier. Here is the link: http://jwtalk.net/forums/files/file/446-2014-tms-book-for-tablet-with-links/

I'm thinking that she is talking about the volcano exploding being close. They have been saying for some years now that the volcanic activity there is high and it's long overdue for an eruption. Just guessing that is what she is talking about. I have been to Yellowstone 15 times. It's one of my favorites places in the US to visit. Just breathtaking.

Its a wonder were not talking like Chipmunks LOLS. Beautiful place.

OK, I get it now. Thanks Christopher. Actually I found the 'male chauvinist' article to be quite humorous. I must share it with all the females in my household.

My humble apologies brothers and sisters. I had no idea I was spreading an untruth. If it was their aim to shock, it worked. But I foolishly repeated it without first verifying it's authenticity. This has been a good reminder for me. Again, my apologies.

They say by definition the perfect storm occurs when many things that are at odds with each other occur at the same time, I had my own little perfect storm at our last meeting. As many of you know I am fairly new to the ASL congregation. I have a difficult time not only learning this new 'language' but not feeling like I want to take off running because all eyes must be focused upon you where they will know what you say. There are also many large TV monitors that reflect your appearance back to the audience. You must watch this monitor until you see yourself and that the camera guy has indeed focused you correctly in the frame. I will never get use to seeing myself on live cera in real time. It is very intimidating for me. Have you heard the lens adds 10pounds? It's an outright lie. It is as least 30#!!! Plus as a child I was always corrected by my mother not to talk with my hands--that is what our words are for. Already this is a lot for me to deal with for every comment. Anyway, the conductor points at me to stand and comment. I stand with the sister seated next to me holding my mind mapping drawing up where I can glance at it and not loose my train of thought. (Mind mapping, another source of irritation for me because I want to use words not pictures) So I catch a glimpse of myself on the three large monitors and look away towards the conductor and as I start signing I notice he is starting to have an awkward look on his face ( utto, I'm thinking to myself I am saying something way wrong and I don't know whether to continue or just sit down. Then his face is turning red and he is looking like he wants to laugh. I look down to my left to find my notes/photos and I see the sister holding the book looks like she is going to fall out of her chair with merriment. Now I super flustered and I nervously look at the monitor. It seems my underwire stay of my bra I am wearing has definitely not 'stayed' and it has worked it's way through my sweater and between my who-who's and with every movement of my as it is thrusting that underwire up about 1/2 inch at a time. It was starting to curl around the top of my breast. At first my mouth just dropped open because I had never seen it do that before. All sisters that have ever worn underwires know how painful It can be when the wire breaks through on the side and pokes your underarm. I have even had it come through the middle but I never had on a sweater where it actually ce through the knit. My mind went blank and I just sat down quickly in my chair. There were plenty of stifled laughs and some not so stifled. In fact the conductor and his wife were teasing me saying I looked like a snake charmer with that circular wire poking out then retreating then popping back out. It is very funny now but embarrassing at the time. But heh, I bought a custom fit bra today and forked over 110.00 for it! Should not have that probl again. I hope.

Many years ago my shoestrap broke as I was stepping on to the platform to give a talk (I was about 14 years old, first pair of hand-me-down (platform) heels). Of course I fell, but tried to carry on. To make it more difficult, my householder couldn't stop giggling and my crush was sitting near the front of the hall.

Kevin, thanks. That video is right up my alley.

Oh brother: http://wafflesatnoon.com/2013/12/22/did-francis-all-religions-are-true/ Did Pope Francis Declare “All Religions Are True” at Third Vatican Council? Posted on December 22, 2013 by waffles in Hoaxes & Rumors // 14 Comments An article circulating online states that Pope Francis declared that all religions are true at the Third Vatican Council. Is this true or false? The article is false. Let’s first look at what is being claimed. In an article published by Diversity Chronicle, we read that Pope Francis announced that “All religions are true, because they are true in the hearts of all those who believe in them.” Francis also allegedly discussed atheists, stating, “Even atheists acknowledge the divine. Through acts of love and charity the atheist acknowledges God as well, and redeems his own soul, becoming an active participant in the redemption of humanity.” Regarding intolerance, the Pope is quoted as saying Catholicism is now “a modern and reasonable religion, which has undergone evolutionary changes. The time has come to abandon all intolerance.” Diversity Chronicle The source of this news item is Diversity Chronicle. The disclaimer on the website states, “The original content on this blog is largely satirical.” Third Vatican Council There has not been a Third Vatican Council. The Second Vatican Council occurred back in the 1960′s and such an event now would receive significant press. Bottom Line Pope Francis did not claim that “all religions are true” at a Third Vatican Council. No such event occurred, and the source of this report is a satirical website.

I am wary of the media. Period. I know in this country, well, I can get news a week before the fact on BBC, and it can be big news. I sort of feel, well, let's say, there is pick and choose as to the items covered. Television? Coverage can be out and out lies. I saw an item on, "60 Minutes". It was about a Witness child custody thing. Blatant lies. I still sort of cringe when I see Leslie Stahl. She did the report. If I am here by myself, I just change channels, or turn it off, as in, "'Here come the apostates", but with my husband having the control in his hands...pretty ugly stuff on that tv about us. And I cannot escape it. I do not think what they say about us is the exception. If they can twist something to make it sensational, they will. So, I take most any worldly media coverage with a grain of salt. Some things may be interesting...but true? Only time will tell.

I'm sorry..........do I still have sit in the corner

Just love this guy! Very enjoyable if you like nature videos.

Check with your congregation secretary for an updated lodging list, since not all rooms are available during the week/month of the initial announcement. If that doesn't help, or you can't afford the full rate, ask around to see if anyone has a local hotel reservation and wouldn't mind an extra rollaway bed in the room. One way or another, Jehovah will provide a way to get there. Just leave it in his hands and be patient, and something will open up before you know it.

OMG! are you ever going to stop posting pictures and pause for breath? Take a break, sister, before you fill the internet!

Why do people say 'bird-brain' when you can get birds as clever as this:

Ohhhh, clay mask.that is a good one. I understand about caring shades if hair color. A few years back a man ran up to my sister and me in a parking lot. He yanked open his coat and exposed himself to use. I was speechless. My sister calming said to him 'are you going fishing? I see you got your worm.' He became very angry and snapped his coat together and ran off. If you knew how quiet and shy my sister is you would never believe she said that.
