You guys are posting some good stuff...here's one for ya (you listening dmiller?)

Always liked Jonathan Edwards...

One issue I see is that some TWI offshoots do not admit their past connection to TWI and/or the doctrines they teach are based on Wierwille's stuff.

...and I wonder why that is...if these people still buy into Vic's teachings, why don't they give credit to him?...

Is it because he has been shown as an abusive fraud?...or is it because Wierwille himself set the example of taking the credit for other people's work?

From what I see most of these guys took away the lesson of how to make a living selling God...

LOL...

Geeze! I didn't even get a note! Just an empty apartment. Seems like 2 or 3 lifetimes ago.

It does...doesn't it...LOL!

I was on my interim year in the 10th corps...my wife and I were sent to Gastonia, North Carolina...

I came home from a meeting and she was gone...left a note she did...

after 3 days, I called Martindale...he handed me my walking papers and booted me out of the corps...

He was harsh with me...told me to "find a twig somewhere and keep in touch"...

At that moment, it all became clear to me...I told him to go "F" himself and hung up...never looked back...

it was one of the most liberating experiences of my life.

The one and only Ella....very nice.

Now...back to our regularly scheduled program

For those of you who are a bit "refined"...IMHO, the greatest jazz guitarist I've ever heard...

Maybe I should have posted this in "About the Way"...LOL...

This is a great song...well sung

Originally, the corps wasto be the ultimate sales force to push Wierwille's money making machine forward...now it's a facade...in an attempt to maintain the requirements for theor tax exempt status with the IRS...

...today I would call them the gullible of the gullible...

Before I invited them in, I would grab a can of whipped cream and hide it in the bathroom...

I would then invite them in, fix them coffee and and strike up a cordial conversation...

after a short while, I would excuse myself to the restroom...while filling mouth with whipped cream, I am flushing the toilet...

I then return to my seat and simply stare at them...after a few moments, I would roll my eyes to the back of head and start saying "satan is present"...over and over again while the whipped cream

spews out of my contorted mouth...perhaps I would even fall to the floor and start fliping around...

Can you imagine it? Some wayfers out witnessing and they knock on your door...

...what do you say?...this could be quite amusing...

I'm glad none of them are coming to Ohio or I'd have to open up a can of demons on them...

Wasn't Boob and Dootie Moneyhands down there in those years?

ha! it kept going.. and going..

the only thing I can think..

Garcia must have loved Winwood's voice.. a thousand different voices..

Garcia could play with anyone...he was that good...and he loved to. Some of his best stuff is with Merle Saunders and David Grisman...

I just happened to stumble across this gem...I listened to it 4 times in a row...unbelievably good;;;now if I can only find it again!

Aha...here it is! check this out...Paw...you should play this one on your radio show.

I think all his programs were designed to provide a free sales force.

...the purpose of taking the class was so that you would "spiritually mature" and get other people to take the class...everything Wierwille did was calculated to eventually make money for himself.

Check out this version...

A good pastor is one whose flock is healthy, cared for and tended to. Look at the flock, ask them about their pastor - you'll learn all you need to know about the shepherd.

Amen to that..and that includes my "sphere of influence"...As a manager of a retail store, I take a personal interest in all my employees...I do my best to treat each one with respect and concern for thir personal situations...I set the example of how I want them to work and then I treat them as friends...the resonse is great! The work place is a test of our faith and how we conduct ourslves....
