    I remember when a 100 MEGABYTE hard drive was awsome, and so was the price. I paid $329 dollars for a 300 baud modem for the Osborne 01, that as the text came in over the phone line, you could easily read it on the monitor as it downloaded. Before that, I worked for Wilma Slaghoople's father, who ran a small computer shop, until she married Fred Flintstone. My first Computer Assisted Drafting computer (CAD) was an Etch-A-Sketch.

    I used to have an Osborne 01 Computer I paid 2,000 dollars for. It was "transportable". and weighed 27 pounds with a white on green screen 5 inches diagonally. The entire CP/M operating system was 16K NOT MEGS, Kilobytes.

    As a person who understands and can do Ocean Navigation, I would rather know it and not do it ... than get on a ship guided by fools who know nothing and sail out into danger and probable death. It's like the parable of the Grasshopper and the Ant. All summer the industrious Ant worked hard, storing seeds and leaves below ground ... and all summer the Grasshopper fiddled away, doing nothing. Then the winter snows came, and the Grasshopper moved to Florida, and someone stepped on the Ant. .... but look on the bright side .... at least Billy did not mention Penguins, other flightless birds, or small aquatic animals.

    Robin, Batman's "Boy Wonder" sidekick. I wonder if he had hairy bruised up legs, or shaved them every day before fighting crime

    As long as Billy does not think about or write about Penguins, other flightless birds, or small aquatic animals, I think he will be O.K. Video_2019-05-10_133413.wmv

    ... i need a beer, just thinking about all of that....

    You have taste buds in your laughed-off head decapitated funnel-fed throat? WOW! -- The mental image of that is just staggering to behold! .... if someone pours soapy water down your funnel ... can you blow bubbles? Now THERE is a YouTube Video I would pay $2.99 to see!

    Unfortunately, even with your offered incentive, I cannot write like you do, Billy. My world view is not skewed by agenda driven WDS. If you do laugh your head off, you will need a neck funnel to eat.

    I think it should be re-designed with a screen to capture the fish, and pump them up to the kitchen.

    Like a Roman Catholic Bishop, who was also a General in the Army of Spain once said, when informed that a Spanish Muslim controlled Fortress contained as many Catholics as Muslims, which he was in the process of defeating and chasing from Spain .... "Kill them all, and let God sort them out!".

    .... and there ... it is.

    I am a self-proclaimed Barbarian, as I have stated many dozens of times here on the Archive, and in every day life. It would not bother me in the least to put someone's head on a pole if I found them mistreating puppies. The ONLY thing that keeps me in check is being one of Jehovah's Witnesses. ... this is where you look behind you and laugh, nervously.

    I feel better if I can bring a little laughter and happiness to the world ... it makes me sleep better at night.
  14. James Thomas Rook Jr.
    Well, JWI. Billy himself thought it was funny, and he has no sense of humor whatsoever.
  15. James Thomas Rook Jr.
    If you actually do decide to laugh you head off, please have someone video it and put it on YouTube.
  16. James Thomas Rook Jr.
    ... since you were not willing to "put your money where your mouth is", Billy, you will NEVER KNOW!
  17. James Thomas Rook Jr.
    Spoken like a true arrogant WT lawyer .... or Gerritt Losch. The bottom line is, you said NO, to my challenge.

    I was baptized in 1964 .. LONG before they changed the rules, and the words, of the Baptismal Corporation Contract ... which evolved over the years as stated above to its current form. which was substantially finished its evolution in 1985. I have no need to reject the current Corporate fealty oath .... as I was baptized in the name of Jehovah, Christ Jesus, and presumably in the Holy Spirit, which I felt very strongly when I was baptized. in 1964 . ... before politics and lawyer driven agenda driven controls screwed the lid down. Those of you who were baptized AFTER 1985 ... I feel very strongly sorry for you. as you have in actual fact dedicated your lives to the current version of "The Organization", and are in actual fact legally liable without recourse. They "got" you. You are morally obligated to keep your oath, as stated at the time you made it. Many people are very happy and content with the new arrangement, and its ramifications. I sincerely hope you are one of them.

    In God I trust. All others pay cash!

    BillyTheKid46: I have somewhere in my 12TB array of 4TB USB hard drives documents from the WT that prove all the assertions you deny here and now. In about two days time I could find, correlate and present them to you .... but in the meantime my recollections only will have to give testimony that you are suffering from a major case of agenda driven WDS . Since you are a Jehovah's Witness in good standing, I will give you a 20% discount to search for them, print them out for you and mail them to you .... after your check clears the bank. My usual rate is $105 an hour, and I would need a two day's retainer to get started. I would refund any funds not used. Care to put your money where your mouth is?

    I had a Brother call me up at 7:30 in the morning, many years ago, asking in desperate need if I had any money I could lend him. I checked my resources, and told him I had $4.00, which I was planning to use for lunch money that day, but he was welcome to that. ...... and he hung up on me. That hamburger at lunch was especially delicious !

    regurgitation from mother wt. no real thoughts of your own I see. WDS ... the gift that keeps on giving.

    WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN "UNDERWEAR" AND "UNDERGARMENTS"? Was it customary for Jews in Jesus' time to wear underwear AND undergarments> Were there different styles of robes worn as "outer garments". I used to go to the Mercer Road Congregation near Stone Mountain, Georgia, near Atlanta Georgia, which at that time was the world headquarters of the Klu Klux Klan, and they wore white sheets, and their governing body, The Grand Dragon, and his helpers, the Lounge Lizards, wore white fitted sheets.

    But hey.... THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT!!
