  1. It was in this week of 1967 that Dunhill records had to cancel their "Win a date with Mama Cass" contest because------No one entered!Heck, I would have entered just to hear her sing Dream A Little Dream Of Me.What a voice!
  2. Ahhhh! That would be To Sir With Love---------------Lulu OK--Now that other one "Sick at heart and lonely, deep in dark despair"
  3. OOPS!! Sorry, Dooj Didn't see you there. Ladies first. I insist!!!
  4. You can always go------Downtown (Petula Clark) "Sick at heart and lonely, deep in dark despair"
  5. I believe he knows what you are talking about, excie. He chooses not to believe it because to do so would mean he was scammed like the rest of us. (And that's a tough pill to swallow.)
  6. Holy Crud! Don't know how I missed this one. This dismissing of the entire corps thing must have been what inspired the dismissing of the entire Fellow Laborers program. The time frame is pretty close. Maybe just a bit later. Except, if I remember correctly, it wasn't an "opportunity to recommit". It was a mandate to "do as we say or you're toast!" ---------------- "This is not slavery"--OM Yeah, you're right, it's psychological manipulation.
  7. Hiya, Oldies I took the liberty of bolding "unequally" in your post. (That's the word you omitted.) So now about this "unequal yoking" business------What do you suppose determines when "yoking" crosses the line and becomes "unequal yoking"? Come to think of it, what the heck is "yoking" anyhow? Did it mean the same thing back then as it does today? Questions, Questions, Questions. Do you suppose Paul might have been addressing a specific situation that was taking place at that point in time? Do you suppose our situation today replicates that particular one? And heck fire, was an "unbeliever" the same thing as what we call an "unbeliever" today? Be honest with yourself. You and I both know this section of scripture was used to instruct us that we were not to have associations or relationships with non-TWI people. Simple as that. They(unbelievers) were inferior to us because WE were the chosen ones.(cough, cough, cough) Cut them off before it's too late. They'll drag you back into the dismal abyss we call "the world". They will be your downfall. They will cause you to return to your old ways like a dog returns to its vomit. It a simple case of "private interpretation". VPW twisted privately interpreted this scripture to say you should cut off your non-TWI associations. That's a fact, Jack! But on second thought,maybe that's OK because his teaching on "private interpretation" is, itself, based on "private interpretation". And that's no "yoke"!
  8. Hey you!! Get off my Cloud. (The Rolling Stones.) I once had a girl(or should i say, "she once had me"?)
  9. I want to state for the record that I do not know these people on the site that I linked to, though the names sound vaguely familiar. I found this site purely by chance. I have no quarrel with them whatsoever. Heck, for all I know, maybe they even post here. But, holy cow! Anybody who doesn't think our thoughts were controlled, ought to give this stuff a very close listen. Much of it is either straight out of PFAL or some other Way class or teaching. Sure it's been updated to appeal to current tastes but the essence is clearly there. The focal point is "The Word". (As defined by whom, of course, is a vital concern.) Yes, God and Jesus Christ are mentioned but only as supportive reference. These people are attempting to build an entire "ministry" not around God or Jesus Christ, but around the catch phrase "The word of God is the will of God". In my heart, I like to think of myself as a musician. And, you know, there are about a gazillion ways you can interpret Take The A-Train. Play it fast, play it slow, play it in a minor key, make it a polka, do it reggae style, whatever. It's still really Take The A-Train.
  10. To heck with the recipe, what time is dinner?
  11. What?!!!! You think putting your wife and kids ahead of selling PLAF (The Miracle Class) makes you LESS of a man? I politely disagree with you, sir, and salute your integrity.
  12. http://thefellowshipofgodsword.org/aboutus.htm http://thefellowshipofgodsword.org/Oct_7.html http://thefellowshipofgodsword.org/Oct_14.html
  13. I googled the quotation and found this: http://thefellowshipofgodsword.org/
  14. Welllll----- There is a Heritage Loaf baking "in the kitchen".
  15. Nothing to add, really, except "congratulations" on your book. I scarcely have the energy to READ a book anymore, much less write one.
  16. Papa Was A Rolling Stone---
  17. Well ok then. I forgive you, Mike. (For having an "agenda".)
  18. Man, oh, man What ever became of your idea for The Butt Sock? (aka-- The BS) I mean, the market was poised in rabid anticipation and then-------nothing. Well, who knows, maybe the World just isn't quite ready yet for any BS of that magnitude.
  19. Thank you I think you have found a point we can mutually agree on.
  20. And waysider is a truck stop------------- Hmmmm. Maybe I better take that Christian Sex and More Sex class again. It was given by revulsion, ya know. I don't have any scriptures to prove it. You'll just have to trust me.
  21. Or-----I can cheer YOU up with some more "Golden Pony" stories.
