  1. You know, I have never really liked any QT films, yet I am always intrigued to see what he's up to this time just because he gets soooooo much hype.

    I've seen Pulp Fiction, Four Rooms, True Romance, and Dusk Til Dawn. I had to leave during certain scenes in Pulp Fiction. Once the vampires came out in Dusk Til Dawn, well I just couldn't watch anymore; it made me nautious.

    Can someone really explain what it is with the cult following on QT? Is he really talented, or does his movies cause us to associate with our dark side?

    One other movie I saw that was QT-ish was with Mel Gibson called "Payback". It had that same darkness where the good guy is really a bad guy (just not as bad as the real bad guys in the movie). icon_rolleyes.gif:rolleyes:--> Now I better sign off before I confuse you guys like I am. icon_smile.gif:)-->

  2. Dot,

    I heard that they are able to save Julian. I guess it is the areas around it that are getting the fire. I always like going hiking to Stone Point in Cuyamaca and then driving to Julian to get apple pie. Seems like I should still be able to do that. The view will just be really different from Stone Point. It is almost 5,000 feet up.

    I don't know anything about the wild life preserve in Escondido. I'll see what I can find out for you.

  3. Well, the air quality is much better today, and it seems the fires are better in San Diego. The mountain town of Julian is getting it bad now though.

    Yesterday the air was so smokey that it almost looked like the scene in "Total Recall" when the took the "mental vacation" to Mars. The sun was neon pink and the sky was no where to be seen. It was really weird. I got out of work early, so I drove to see if I could find clear air. I did not. So I went home and prayed for God to clear the air. I woke up this morning to see blue sky.icon_smile.gif:)--> Thanks God! There is still a little smoke, but it is wayyyy better.

    Thank you for all your prayers!

  4. Thanks all of you for your love and concern!

    I live about 5 miles west of Scripps Ranch, and I work about 7 miles west of it. I work very close to home. I've been working because what else will I do except stay home and watch TV?

    It has been very smoky these past few days. I wish a wind would come and blow it all away, but then it may start more fires. So I think rain should be the thing to pray for. We are supposed to start the rainy season soon, but we have not had any measurable rain for 173 days. So please pray for rain.

  5. Please pray for the fires to recede in San Diego. There are about 6 of them in the area. They started in the eastern part where it is not very densely populated, but they are moving west because of the Santa Ana winds blowing west.

    I have freakin' ash on my patio, and I can smell the smoke! I have a friend who lives up north where I can go to if I need a place to stay. This seems too unreal.

  6. They are probably divorced now because she was a single corps mom in Ohio while I was at HQ. I heard she recently relocated and is engaged.

  7. When the Indiana Campus was sold, she sold her house also and moved back to North Carolina. That was a few years ago, so it may not be accurate still.

  8. I first took this class when I was a youngin (19 yrs old). I scratched my head about masturbation being the original sin. But then when veepee tried to teach women how to masturbate, I really scratched my head. I thought now if Adam and Eve did it and got booted from the Garden of Eden, why it is OK to do it now? And then the suggestion he gave to women on how to masturbate was not a good one.

    Rottie, in case you are wondering, he said that women/girls needed instruction because they weren't as knowledgeable in this area. (Go figure.) I don't remember needing any lesson on this. I guess he thought that because he thought women were more reserved in this category of life. He said men/boys didn't need it because their hands always found their way to that part of the body. icon_eek.gif

  9. Insurgent,

    I kind of doubt she left since her boyfriend just graduated from the Corps. She was pretty devoted to twi, but I could be wrong. She's a good person though. She would be one the few Corps people who don't take advantage of people. I miss her.

  10. What is

    Insurgent? I have been thinking about her a lot lately since she and I were buds from our 1987 Adv Class. She may have left hq because she had a beau who graduated from the kork this year. Maybe she got married and got the H out of oz! But did she leave twi? Anything you know would be greatly appreciated.

  11. I chose all of the above because it is different for each individual. I remember when I first starting lurking at the discussion forums (while still in), I was really curious and still fearful that I was "opening" myself up. LOL! What a dummy I was! Then my boyfriend (innie) started reading the discussion forums and was discussing with me that there were problems in twi that needed to be taken care of . At the time I was skeptical of twi, but I didn't see how reading the "bad stuff" about it was going to change it. IMO at the time, it would just pees me off. So I told him he should stop reading. Well then later, I started reading and then started posting. That changed everything for me. I saw that God would still be there for me even if I left twi. I went through a lot of mental anguish while still in, but the end result is good. I am enjoying my life out. I don't care what happens in or to twi. I have a great church I go to, and I don't even feel the compelling desire to have to agree with everything they teach. I hold fast to the good. Yeah, any suporter of twi or WayGB probably think I could have done the same thing while remaining in twi, but then again I would be an idiot to stay somewhere where I can be abused.

    Funny thing, I'm out, ex-boyfriend is still in.
