Hey, pay attention to the program mister!! No use of technology during convention time!

Where did everyone go...
June 28, just before going to 3.0
i may be tracking users differently. i think before users were "online" if they had been active within the last 20 minutes. now it's 15. i may change it back.
could also be that some users haven't logged into the new site yet.
or they forgot their password.
or they don't like the new site.
The first reason makes sense, cuz most if not all these 22 are active and the 5 minutes would make a world of difference... see how 'just a few minutes' (not just two) are valuable. LOL :-)
hey whats the bible reading this week?
Psalms 74-78

I love to travel, I want to be this guy, although the dancing is a bit kookie.
I've seen this video, and I love his dancing
cracks me up
yeah! this guy rules. i want to be him
today at Wawa i briefly looked at the newspaper while i was waiting for my friend to pay for her stuff or whatever and i saw an article about a 48 year old Polish woman in Toms River, who came home to find a rapist in her home, and she fought him off and like ripped out some of his hair or something
the guy turned out to be a wanted rapist who attacked other women in Ocean County
anwyay, she's my hero
OH! i found the article online. It's not Toms River it's Old Bridge. Anyway, I love her. She's totally representin' for tough Polish women everywhere.
"She wouldn't go silently and that made all the difference in the world," Weiss said.

Just got home from service, and I just wanted to share something kinda cool
A friend of mine has this really good Bible study, and I've been going with her for a while now, and today was kind of especially good because the woman who is studying is having a hard time in her life right now, and having a hard time believing what she's reading, and needs to build up her faith, etc.
Today the woman pulled out an old bible that her mother in law gave her, she kind of wanted to see if it's the same as 'our Bible' and we found psalms 83:18 and it said "lord" instead of Jehovah, but i was like, they probably have some kind of a preface that they explain that they took the name out
we looked, and sure enough, a short paragraph in the preface said that God's name, which is translated Yahweh or Jehovah, has been replaced by "Lord" or "God" in this translation
she was just like WOW
she just looked like completely stunned, and she said something like, now I have something to show people when they tell me they don't like that i'm doing this
it was awesome
I think it was a turning point for her
thanks for sharing this story. i was just sitting here pining over going out in service tonight. This was just the little boost i needed.
:)
Great story!
being present for a turning point like that is always amazing. it's not just a boost for the afternoon, but for life.
oh yeah, definitely. How awesome is it to see Jehovah's name in a Bible translated by Catholic preists or whatever, and a little note, almost hidden in a little paragraph in a 3-page preface, basically saying "yeah.. we know that's God's name, we just took it out, kthanxbi"
humorous
ZING!
This is super exciting! Service is great, even when its hott and gross out.
kam this is AWESOME!!! it was nice to read about this first thing this morning! i love good experiences!
does anyone know what cyclic redundancy check means? (i'm trying to copy hi-res images from a dvd.)
Sounds like the DVD might be scratched, or the file corrupted.
Try cleaning off the DVD or something
The nerdy answer...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_redundancy_check
The lay answer....
A "CRC" error is most often caused by bad media - it could be any of the following:
1. A dirty disc,
2. A scratched disc
3. A poor quality disc (cheap media if it happens during the "Burn" section of your work)
4. A bad disc from the Mfgr.
It can also be from a bad optical component in your drive. At this time I don't believe it's your drive at all.
If you recently purchased this disc new from a store, I would return it as defective if just cleaning and the proper use of DVD Decrypter doesn't get the job done.
hmm I got it from the ad agency I deal with at work so it's possible that it's scratched. Thanks for the info guys!
try copying just one at at a time. one of the files is probably corrupt or named weird. we get that sometimes when we back up laptop hard drives
they are all named weird! don't you remember working here? unfortunately, i tried one at a time and i still got the error.
You guys see this? from america's got talent

Baseball talk!
Yea the Yankees only pay Arod 15 of his 25 million. The Texas rangers pay the other 10.
Which is really funnny..
I wish I could get laid off and still paid after I get hired by another company.
That'd rock.
stop hating on the yankees. See you in the playoffs!
banned
The Yankees won't make it this year. hahahahahaha....
Sure they won't
eZabel Browser Usage:
Internet Explorer - 50.9 %
Firefox - 46.1 %
Netscape - 1.4 %
Safari - 1.1 %
Nice!
i thinkthe high firefox usage shows that a high percentage of ezabel users are computer savvy
who uses netscape?
I would sooo be using Safari if only it would render correctly.
But IE, wow!?! How disturbingly sad. :(
I love Firefox! If only I would stop closing down the wrong tab all the time..
firefox 2 promises to be able to restore accidently closed tabs.
True! works well too! :-)
Good detective work gameboy. good stuff gameboy good stuff
What in the world would cause the NEC PCI to USB open host controller on a laptop to just disappear.

ughhhh

Ahh yess.. i'll finally be a proud owner of a limo. A dream come true.
Does anyone know how long your contagious after you start on antibiotics??
Depends on your disease and what antibiotic you're taking.
i'm taking a zpak for sinus infections/bronchitis.
The pharmacist/doctor call would be the sure bet, but you could check webmd.com for a quick (possibly inaccurate) timeframe. I'm sure your doctor could tell you really quickly, though.
yeah i'll just have to call. its no biggie, we just have a lot of newborns in our hall and i'm not going to go the the meeting if i'm contagious.
Maybe you'd want to sit in the second school, then, and just keep 'em away from your phlegm. :)
phlegm is such a beautiful word...hahaha. SICK
But I don't think brochitis is contagious...
I know sinus infections aren't. Just don't cough on people.
ask your pharmacist
Research Project:
Donovan and I were on a study last week, and the man said he was reading the bible and stumbled upon 2 Kings 2:23-25, wherein Elisha calls down evil upon 42 children for calling him "Baldhead" and send bears to maul them.
The study was pretty cool about it, he said there must be some part of the account that he's missing. My short answer was that the people that Elisha prophesied to were wicked, by and large, and the fact that the children called him a name probably was not the singular reason they were killed. It probably had more to do with their parents' deeds.
We're going on the study again tonight, and I was going to research this after work (it sounds like something a "Questions from Readers" article would be about), but I wondered if anyone has come across this before. It's an interesting verse to explain to someone with an open mind.
Insight book: Baldness
Jehovah’s prophet Elisha was bald. After he had succeeded to the prophetic office of Elijah, he was proceeding uphill from Jericho toward Bethel when he was mocked by a mob of children who cried: “Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!” The primary reason for their jeers seems to have been not that Elisha was bald but that they saw a bald man wearing Elijah’s familiar official garment. They did not want any successor of Elijah around. He should either keep going his way up to Bethel or ascend in a windstorm to the heavens as the former wearer of that official garment had done. (2Ki 2:11) To answer this challenge of his being Elijah’s successor and to teach these young people and their parents proper respect for Jehovah’s prophet, Elisha called down evil upon the jeering mob in the name of the God of Elijah. It was a test of his prophetship. Jehovah manifested his approval of Elisha by causing two she-bears to come out of the nearby woods and to tear to pieces 42 of them.—2Ki 2:23, 24.
Insight book: Elisha
From Jericho, Elisha climbs to Bethel, about 900 m (3,000 ft) above sea level, where he had previously visited a group of the sons of the prophets in company with Elijah. (2Ki 2:3) On the way, a band of juvenile delinquents comes out and shows great disrespect both to him and his office as prophet. “Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!” they jeer. They mean for him either to keep on going up to Bethel or to get off the earth just as his predecessor was supposed to have done. (2Ki 2:11) To teach these boys and their parents respect for the prophet of Jehovah, he turns and calls down evil upon them in Jehovah’s name. Suddenly two she-bears come out from the woods and tear to pieces 42 of their number.—2Ki 2:23, 24.
Great! "Juvenile delinquents" - man, I don't think I've ever seen that term in the insight book before! I mentioned something last week about how the isrealites killed literally every prophet, and how they must have had no respect for Elisha. Thanks!
i love this account. 42 kids?! that's quite a rampage.
This study went really well last night. Thanks to gameboy and funky for the articles. We read through another couple scriptures and the guy came to the right conclusion on his own. He asked so many good questions! They were kind of obscure questions, but still, it showed he was really thinking about what he was reading. He's also reading this "biblical" book by a recent author, that sort of shows "holes" in the bible and ways that it's unreasonable. But every time he brings up one of those points, we're able to show him other scriptures and he realizes how the bible harmonizes. And he said he might come to the meeting on sunday! I'm kinda bummed that I won't be able to go anymore - Donovan was assisting the conductor who's been on vacation the last two weeks, so I just went along with Donovan as he conducted. I'm praying for him!
Ok...So...Anybody want to watch my 2 kids for a week in August? My babysitter is going on vacation the week of Aug 21st.
If you are wondering, it pays $300 for the week.
I know there are some pioneer sisters who need some extra cash. :o)
Oh man! I'd so do this but thats the one week I'm gone too!
Yeah summertime is tough. Everyone goes away.
hey todd do you remember this?
'One day one of my little nephews came up to me and asked me if the equator was a real line that went around the Earth, or just an imaginary one. I had to laugh. Laugh and laugh. Because I didn't know, and I thought that maybe by laughing he would forget what he asked me.' (DEEP THOUGHTS BY JACK HANDY)
lol, i remember that. good one.
although... is the prime meridian a real line or imaginary? i'm not quite sure...
oh gameboy you're so silly.
of course it's fake
lol, totally! I love those things.
oh man. new musings page. Thai, go for the limo
