SafariVista

I'm trying to come up with a scary costume to wear while giving out candy to the trick-or-treaters.

Here's an idea, something I did and won BEST COSTUME ....

Dress up in an ALL WHITE nurse or doctor uniform, long black hair wig, white face paint on ALL showing skin, black eyeliner covering the eye socket area, black lips, long black artificial nails, short fang mouth piece, with a trickle of red coming from one side of the mouth.

The first time I still lived at home. The second time I was a WOW in Hawaii, and wore this to work at BURGER KING The last time was in 1987, there was a couple that had just left the family corps living near us... the husband couldn't believe it was me, and after he realized it was, was visibly disturbed, and asked me to leave :unsure:

Every time I dressed like this it freaked people out!

I'm going to look for that picture...

The bosses didn't like the placement of the tail.

The homes in the background look beautiful and LARGE!

Then monkey's actions are quite humorous

I say it like Safari and David, (except I don't ennunciate the last vowel, so I really say V-gn, with a hard g as in go, and the accent is on the V) but there is no right or wrong way, like Safari says. So, be prepared to change your pronunciation depending on where you are.

Yes, what VeganXTC said...

Say V followed by gn

I'm just loving this subject!

We've been experimenting with different ways of eating for many years now. Mostly due from the desire to enjoy better health.

Thinking back to how 'each way of eating' made me feel, the VERY BEST was ALL RAW VEGAN!

Now, when I get into something, it's usually all the way, so we purchased several books, the big 9 tray Dehydrator, two juicers, two sprouting jars and went to town. Every meal was made from a variety of Raw fruits, veggies, sprouted grains and seeds. It took some time to get the hang of it, and became less labor intensive as we became more familiar with all the growing and handling issues.

This I did for a full four months, and I NEVER felt better in my life! BUT... my family wasn't as interested, and they finally won. Preparing two types of meals was just more than I could handle.

In 2004, my husband had a very serious health scare/issue. We've spent close to 10K on different medical procedures and care. The ONLY thing that actually helped him was a two week WATER ONLY FAST in 5/2006!

Finally, the rest of our family is seeing the importance of DIET and it's direct relation to how healthy we are.

The juicers are going, the veggies & fruits & grains are being enjoyed... and we're feeling better than ever. The only time anyone gets a cold in our family is AFTER consuming junk food. I've documented it. As long as the consumption is kept wholesome and mostly raw, everything is better~ EVERYTHING~ behavior and health!

We dress up, trick or treat, pass out candy and go to the school's party :)

Living in a predominantly religious area, there are many families that trick or treat in a church parking lot, or go to private parties with their children.

My preference for costumes and decorations would be cute, harvest type, or something imaginative without all the horror and gore~

Was this the picture? ...

:huh: who is THAT guy?

Certainly isn't my husband!

Your Dominant Intelligence is Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence

You are naturally athletic and coordinated, good at making your mind and body work together.

Sports are fun and easy for you, especially those requiring good hand - eye coordination.

There's also a good chance you're a great dancer, or good at expressing yourself through body language.

You learn best by doing, and you feel like you've always got to be moving (even if it's just your hands).

You would make a good athlete, physical education teaches, dancer, actor, firefighter, or artisan.

:) what fun!

How quickly you guys forget "your history."

September 1942 was "the 1942 promise", aka "the snow on the pumps".

I had been trying to block out some events... but, thanks to you WordWolf, it's all coming back to me now

do I hear jingle bells?

Vegan do dis yer way, or vegan do dis MY way

ChasUFarley, most people around here pronounce it 'veegan'.

Don't know if there is a right or wrong way~

snip, clip...)

I was not allowed to speak to VP -- the closest I got was to DEW, who said I'd "be blessed" by going with my husband. I almost got dead instead.

You were almost killed? Died? :unsure: :( :unsure:

TempleLady... that was one BIG wall!

TWI is far too involved in THEIR FOLLOWER’S BUSINESS, personal and all others!

Thinking, eating, exercising, drinking, love making, school, work, neighbors, fellowships, finances, budgeting, skin care, blemish covering, clothes, shoes, parties, discipline, speaking, listening, singing, talking, believing, trips, shopping, time with others, furniture, organization, calendars, time management... and more

Unfortunately, it’s a trickle down effect, and the ‘leaders’ are being asked to make reports about their people.

For someone who doesn’t want to do this, there is tremendous pressure, and when something harmful happens to a ‘person on your watch‘, you have to give some answers. This has led to LEADERS to say things like, “You need to figure out why this happened”! It was always the fault of yourself… except for the “LEADERS”, who were doing the Word and under Spiritual attack

This ugly cistern called TWI isn’t holding any water, and has caused a lot of damage. In our family, the damage is very deep, and I pray that one day the truth will be clear, and the destructive residue the treatment from TWI has deposited will be gone.

TWI was incorporated in 1955 so the corporation is only 51 years old.

64 - 51 = 13. There's a 13 year discrepancy, any numerologists want to comment on the number 13?

Seth

Thanks for reminding us of this... any innie lurkers watching & reading here?

Where or when does the extra 13 years date them back to? When Mr. Wierwille graduated from seminary? I don't know off the top of my head, but it couldn't be too hard to find.

Wonder what the explanation for this one is? `

damn to think how arrogant and so full of ourselves we were

Yes I was, and can recall with clarity, my egotistical, smarty pants reaction to another person's sincere, concise prayer to God... as if God knew I could teach them how to do it right ...

Please forgive me, I'm unlearning, and it may take a bit more time

Belle, I must have suppressed many details, since I was there listening to all the teachings, and visiting HQ once a month.

One thing I don't remember are the green cards after the late 80's. Something changed maybe?, the color to white or blue? Don't recall so much emphasis placed on having someone chose what they wanted from the 'list'...

There is a whole block of time that is foggy at present... Not many good memories, not even with family :(

Maybe I was too busy with three, then four children, getting 'everything' just so, and being to all the meetings, that I just didn't GO OUT & witness?

Sounds nice Lori, glad you found your friends :)

geesh Oakspear, how embarrassing... did the BC blow a gasket like good ol Al?

Who’s the idiot?

That's right WordWolf, Mr Wierwille's 'way' doesn't work, his life tells the 'story', and it just isn't very good, with a real bad ending!

What?

That WAS the instruction EVERYONE got in the 90s,

when lcm got tired of seeing wow-mobiles and other stuff.

The instruction was that people you witnessed to needed to have Teeth, A Job and a Car?

Nicely said Mr. Rummy, Cheers~

Johniam -- this is for you ---

THE NATIONAL ANTHEM

I LOVED HEARING THAT... going back in for another listen :)
