I was told Natalie Wood and Olivia Newton John were - guess someone at the top had a thing against beautiful women

I, for one, stand behind you, even on basic moral grounds - given the recent recommedation by whatever board decides all of this Net stuff, maybe they might want to register Rosiesrangers.xxx

THanx Dmiller - actually, I was a columnist for a few years, and write for a living - sometimes just for fun LOL

OK, OK, I'm sorry - it was getting wayyyyyy to serious in here lately LOL - Now lets enjoy the warm spring days and play nice again :)-->

The Lima Herald reported today in an interview with the President of TWI, that due to the numerous lawsuits against the Way International, Inc., they have decided to close all functioning of the organization, including selling all properties held in whole or part of the TWI and refund to all members, past and present, a portion of the proceeds resulting from the liquidation of all assests real and personal. It was stated the liquidation was going to prorated based upon the percentage of donations directly attributed to all living members of the organization.

The current headquaters of TWI, located in New Knoxville Ohio, has been the subject of controversy for more than fifty years. The exisitng land and structures, including but not limited to a small auditorium, office buidings, dormatories, and a "President's Chalet", as well as a large amount of farmable acreage, have the potential to be of interest to numerous industrial and commercial interests. In addition, it is known that other assets are held in trust by the corporation in Toledo and in Gunnison, Colorado.

The President of TWI stated that the decision was made following the week-long apparition of a cloud formation looking like two old-style gasoline pumps directly above the campus, and the seasonally uncommon snowfalls that have been plaguing the New Knoxville region this week. "I think its a sign that we need to atone for our misdeeds, and get back to our roots" she told reporters. After the interview, the reporter noticed personally that the odd cloud formation that had persisted over the Headquarters of the TWI began to dissapate.

Happy APRIL FOOLS!!!!

I think my take on this issue is a little unique. Around 1982 I began woith closely with J... Sch....... on a chronology of the OT. Being a simple-joe believer, I wasn't allowed in the RD, but from my home God showed me great signs and miracles in this study. When the RD was busted up, JS told me directly to forget ever working for the RD of the Way, because they were heading into the toilet. I kept doing my own personal study though, and God finally showed me how it all fit together - I tried to give it to the Ministry, and all I got was "You're just a joe-believer, you can't do any research WE want to read" - I left the Way soon after, Research Ministry? NOT!!!

George's Grills!! They actually work well, I've tried a few different types, and they're good for small cuts of meat, although the top part is a bit hard to clean. Donesn't work on grilled cheese LOL, but works better on most meats than dragging out the broiler or frying pan

Ran across this obituary trying to do a search on Walter Cummins. Didn't know him myself, but one of you probably did

Kaveh “Kevin” Kamyar, 47, of Co. Rd. 124, Cardington, Ohio died Monday, September 08, 2003 at his home.

He was born in Tehran, Iran on February 28, 1956, the son of the late Ramezan Kamyar and Jamileh Norouzy Ghhderijani who survives in Tehran. He received his degree in theology from the College of Emporia. He worked for Unisource Worldwide in Columbus as a customer service representative. He resided in Queens, NY and Columbus prior to moving here in 2000. Kaveh was dedicated to his family and was a devoted Christian.

In addition to his mother, he is survived by his wife Mary Frances Kamyar, whom he married May 4, 1985; a son David P. Kamyar at home; a daughter Sarah A. Kamyar at home; and six brothers and sisters including a brother Cameron Kamyar of Columbus, Ohio.

Rev. Walter Cummins will conduct memorial services on Saturday, September 13 at 1 p.m. in the Snyder Funeral Home, 76 S. Main St., Mt. Gilead. Memorial contributions can be made to Hospice of Morrow County, P.O. Box 86, Mt. Gilead, OH 43338. Condolences may be expressed to the family at www.snyderfuneralhomes.com

Here-s the truth - we're all actually aliens transplanted from a world where the moon is always full, and society is based on who had the most fun. The full moon just brings it out in us here!! :)-->

"Well the name Doe stuck with me. I had seen it somewhere else and couldn't figure out where until I went back to the source of the docs Pat had gotten. In August of 1996, when TWI bought the property, it was FROM THE DOE FAMILY! This house was purchased from, I believe, the parents of Dr. Doe.

Then I researched further and guess who is living there NOW? None other than Dr. Doe and his family."

So, the Way paid for this property out of the ABS, and then rented it right back to the original owners - sounds like A PAYOFF TO ME!!!!

"Send me all my ABS back, you frauds, then I'll consider a conversation" :)-->

I've been encouraged to spread the word, the new movie being released by Mel Gibson is getting a LOT of media hype, but the movie portrays in gruesome detail the torture of Christ. The movie may have the opposite effect than stated, and cause a spiritally negative feeling of grief and remorse in the Christian Church. This is likely to be hyper-intensified in youthful minds, so I'd encourage anyone interested in seeing this movie to be very wary and leave your kids at home, or consult beforehand with a spiritually aware minister.

Top ten things I Should have Learned from Oz Before attending twig

10. Claim ignorance, even if it was YOUR house that killed the bitch

9. Don't go down a road just because a bunch of little freaks are tellings you to

8. Just because someone is giving directions doesn't mean that he knows THE WAY

7. Don't ever let anyone tell you you're not smarter than you think - you don't need no stinkeen certificate to prove it

6. You have the courage inside you all along

5. Don't let someone scare you into doing anything you don't feel confortable with, even if SHE does have a bunch of flying monkeys

4. Take time to stop and smell the roses, and take a little nap too if you feel like it

3. If you go knocking on strage people's doors, don't be surprised when someone bites your head off

2. The dog was the only one truely loyal

and the Number one thing I should have learned:

1. JUST BECAUSE HE SAYS HE'S ALL GREAT AND POWERFUL, DOESN'T MEAN HE'S NOT A FRAUD!!!!

This, my friends, is a topic that I've studied for 20 years (hence the handle), and I must attest that both the creationists and evolutionists are right, and both are wrong. Evolution did occur, up to 11,000 BC, when the rules were rewritten by God. Creation is occur, not 6000 years ago as 2027 contends, but approximately 11,000 BC, which conforms exactly to the rise of homo sapiens sapiens in the world, and the die off of the large mammels (i.e. saber tooth tiger, giant sloth, etc.). Man is not descended from ape, but was created just as the Bible says, but before that, an anthromorph had evolved from ape to Neantherthal. Science, correctly evaluated, validates the Bible with tremendous accuracy. The problem of OT chronology is resolved and pushed back in time when you come to realize that the patriarchs were not for the most part father-to-son, but father-to-ancestor of next person in the royal lineage. When recalculated, Adam was made, formed and created in the year 10,856 B.C., exactly where science put it!!!

I do confess, there were times I was so lonely I took some comfort there....

On the thread "alternative home building" there ws mention of looking for old books on home building. The best, and I mean BEST, source for old books is http://www.abebooks.com/, a centralized database of used bookstores around the world. Its the only place I shop for old books anymore

I took a different path. After spending the bulk of one weekend reading the Greasespot, immediately after the announcement was made of LCM's resignation, I went to fellowship wired and looking for answers, specificially if he was going to be marked and avoided. My coordinater childed me for making such comments in the middle of felowship, but promised me that she would look into the situation. When I got home I was later called by the branch coordinator, who basically told me to stay off the Internet and mind my own business. The next day I faxed a letter of resignation to my coordinator, telling her that I could no longer state for such a corrupt and evil organization. I never went back or looked back!!!!

Had to get it off my chest - hate to be down on a holiday, but when I think about life, that night was a spiritually dark turning point - I'm OK - a survivor - and looking forward to playing Santa in the AM too. It just seems like the more I tried to give the bastards, the more they wanted to take away. Real LOVING!!!! May they all rot!

Merry Christmas, I love YOU all - you are the righeous remnant of God!!!!

I sit here all alone on Christmas Eve, wondering why? I had a family, a wife and 2 kids. But 7 years ago, when I met and fell in love with her, we lived together for several months before I broke it to my coordinator. I was immediately M&A and told that we could not come to twig, or have sex, until we were married. God, I wish I had told them to go to hell that night, but I had been so filled with "greasespot-crap" by that time that I was afraid - so we did as instructed, we got married - but right from the honeymoon they had literally killed my sex drive - if being head-over-heels in love was wrong, then I must be evil. We never did recover from that, just five more years of fighting, anger, pain till we finally separated. But it all goes back to that one night of evil - so thank you, LL, DL, DM and DD - you know who you are - I hope your Christmas SUVKS!!!!!!!!!!!

Politically Correct Fellowship Ho-Ho Party (altered from the original version)

This is dedicated to all of us who have ever tried to be politically correct in a politically incorrect world, especially in the religiously twisted world of the Way.

December 1st

FROM: YOUR LOVING TWIG COORDINATOR's WIFE

TO: ALL LEAVES

I'm happy to inform you that the Twig Christmas

Party will take place on December 23rd at Luigi's

Open Pit barbecue. There will be lots of spiked

eggnog and our own twig Way Productions will be playing traditional carols... feel free to sing along. And don't be surprised if our Twig Coordinator shows up dressed as Santa Claus to light the Christmas tree! Exchange of gifts among friends can be done at that time; however, no gift should be over $10.

Merry Christmas to you and your family.

In no way was yesterday's memo intended to exclude

our Jewish friends who haven't taken our wonderful class yet. We recognize that Hanukkah is an important holiday that often coincides with Christmas (though unfortunately not this year). However, from now on we're calling it our "Holiday Party." The same policy applies to employees who are celebrating Kwanza at this time. There will be no Christmas tree and no Christmas carols sung.

Happy Holidays to you and your family.

Regarding the anonymous note I received from a

member of Alcoholics Anonymous requesting a

non-drinking table, I'm happy to accommodate

this request, but, don't forget, if I put a sign

on the table that reads, "AA Only," you won't be

anonymous anymore. In addition, forget about

the gifts exchange-- no gifts will be allowed

since the Board of Directors feel that $10 could constitute a bribe.

TO: ALL TWIG

I've arranged for members of Overeaters Anonymous

to sit farthest from the dessert buffet and

pregnant women closest to the restrooms.

Gays are allowed to sit with each other. Lesbians

do not have to sit with the gay men; each will have their table. Yes, there will be a flower

arrangement for the gay men's table. Happy now?

December 9th

TO: ALL EMPLOYEES

People, people--nothing sinister was intended by

wanting our Twig Coordinator to play Santa Claus! Even if the anagram of "Santa" does happen to be "Satan," there is no evil connotation to our own "little man in a red suit."

TO: TWIG

Vegetarians--I've had it with you people!! We're

going to hold this party at Luigi's Open Pit whether you like it or not, you can just sit at the table farthest from the "grill of death," as you put it, and you'll get salad bar only, including hydroponic tomatoes. But, you know, tomatoes have feelings, too. They scream when you slice them. I've heard them scream. I'm hearing them right now... Ha! I hope you

all have a rotten Ho-HO! Drive drunk and die, you

hear me?

TO: ALL TWIG

I'm sure I speak for all of us in wishing Patty

Lewis a speedy recovery from her stress-related

illness. I'll continue to forward your cards to

her at the sanitarium. In the meantime, the Board of Directors has decided to all Ho-Ho parties and just have a mandatory listening to this weeks tape - Living with Love on Ho-Ho in the Abundant Land of the Living Self-Righteous. Thank you - please remember to bring you tithe (10%) and ABS (11%+)

TommyZ, I have 5 lp's with Sousa marching songs (i.e. God Bless America,, Star Spangled Banner)if you'd like them. Email me privately if interested, they'll go cheap

BOOM!!!!!
