No. No "fire" involved, not that recent, and your title was too short.

I'm still trying to figure out what you got in trouble FOR. You were on your "free" (unstructured, unregulated) time. You were using your "free" (unstructured, unregulated) portion of your budget. There was no restriction against eating ice cream. There was no restriction against buying ice cream. There was no restriction against sharing ice cream. There was no restriction against spending time together. There was no restriction against pooling funds-and that was a REQUIRED part of programs like wow. So, every single thing was permitted OR RECOMMENDED by twi. Yet, someone got in trouble, despite being in full accordance with the rules. Why? The only possibility left was: being in trouble because they didn't LIKE what you did, so the rules suddenly excluded having any fun in any way they didn't like, whether or not there was a reason to disapprove.

He's probably not aware he's engaging in "False Dilemma." http://www.logicallyfallacious.com/index.php/logical-fallacies/94-false-dilemma " False Dilemma (also known as: false dichotomy, the either-or fallacy, either-or reasoning, fallacy of false choice, fallacy of false alternatives, black-and-white thinking, the fallacy of exhaustive hypotheses, bifurcation, excluded middle, no middle ground, polarization) Description: When only two choices are presented yet more exist, or a spectrum of possible choices exist between two extremes. False dilemmas are usually characterized by “either this or that” language, but can also be characterized by omissions of choices. Another variety is the false trilemma, which is when three choices are presented when more exist. Logical Form: Either X or Y is true. Either X, Y or Z is true. Example (two choices): You are either with God, or against him. Explanation: As Obi Wan Kenobi so eloquently puts it is Star Wars episode III, “Only a Sith deals in absolutes!” There are also those who simply don’t believe there is a God to be either with or against. Example (omission): I thought you were a good person, but you weren’t at church today. Explanation: The assumption here is that bad people don’t go to church. Of course, good people exist who don’t go to church, and good church-going people could have had a really good reason not to be in church -- like a hangover from the swingers gathering the night before. Exception: There may be cases when the number of options really are limited. For example, if an ice cream man just has chocolate and vanilla left, it would be a waste of time insisting he has mint chocolate chip. "

Looks like he was saying that a regular member was given an ordination during that meeting. I'm not sure if you wanted details beyond that.

BTW, the first show is NOT a Food Network show, it premiered on SPIKE and airs there today. At least in markets that HAVE Spike TV.

It came up on SNT's here and there. They were required to hit up EVERYONE they knew until they made the total, no matter how casually they knew them. One tape I had contained a clip from Vince F chiding some candidate (anonymously, at least) for saying he was unable to find anyone, but he hadn't exhausted every mathematical possibility by literally asking everyone he'd ever met who was in twi. That's why, apparently, someone here once posted the translation: "Hello." = "Will you sponsor me for the Corps?"

"I'm ready for my closeup, Mr DeMille."

You can probably reconstruct the name if you think of what the show is designed to do... (Besides "get viewers.")

This was done recently-a page ago...

(Two different shows-answer either to take the round.) What I really want is a television show about fixing up taverns and drinking establishments that are in danger of closing down. Really? Ok, you'll want to tune in to this one... No, I'd actually prefer one where eating establishments are fixed by finding out what the waitstaff's really doing when the owner's not there, via hidden cams. Really? Then I have a different show for you...

I'm reading it all and commenting on a little. When trying to pin down the writing of the Pentateuch, I think we can say with confidence it was written some time before the carrying-away into Babylon, because that marks the time when the Samaritan and Israelite texts are divided into hard categories. Yet they are nearly identical concerning the Pentateuch. Before that would take a lot of work to narrow the range more. Good. I rather prefer when we are honest about when we are forming opinions and when we are working from nearly-ironclad documentation, for example. With some people suggesting the Masoretic Text was put together at the end of the Babylonian captivity specifically to restore and preserve Scripture that may have been altered during that time, you are hardly the only person suggesting that. http://www.gotquestions.org/Masoretic-Text.html Interesting possibility. I think it COULD have happened this way, but I don't see enough to convince me it PROBABLY went this way. If I were only considering that one vs Moses writing down the Pentateuch, I'd consider that a False Dilemma, since there's more than those 2 possibilities, of course. I'm glad you're enjoying this. At the least, I'm interested in seeing where this is going.

AFAIK, it wasn't officially called that until the 1988-1989 Exodus had ended. They were already using that terminology during the exodus, but hadn't codified it into a named system. However, it was an extension of things vpw did- like when he just announced to a corps class the entire class was being cut, just like that. He allowed them to all grovel and return if they wanted, and the class continued with those that did so. We had discussions that included that on the thread about lcm's book worshipping vpw, "VP and Me." The thread was called "vp and me in wonderland". www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/topic/8019-vp-and-me-in-wonderland/ Generally, lcm's craziness was distillations in public of what vpw did in private. IMHO, vpw knew he was conning people, so he covered his tracks. lcm was conned into believing it all, so he did it openly.

That's it.
