Ronald Reagan always said not to be triste, but to vivify.

Or something like that.

as far as i can tell, no one has a gun to their head mandating that they be a CHEERLEADER. What is cheerleading but dressing up [or rather HALFdressing] for lecherous drunk dudes at sporting events?

To me those NFL cheerleaders are like Pageant girls. They know it is going to cost them a bit in the end but it is for publicity to hopefully be “discovered”

I’ve got no strings to hold me down
To make me fret, or make me frown
I had strings but now I’m free
There are no strings on me
I’ve got no strings so I have fun
I’m not tied to anyone
How I love my liberty,
There are no strings on me!

Maybe we can sing this for America again someday. A+++

The locals interviewed a number of ex-Jiils in the area ... Most of them said that all the women pretty much knew what they were getting into when they signed up. From what I’ve seen, it just looks like a money grab.

Poor baby. I just want to pick her up and hug her.

Trees are budding here..... stood in the bathroom window staring out while brushing my teeth this morning. It’s the first I have noticed around here. This tree usually buds first.

NEVER take a flyer from them, they WILL come back in hopes you read it and will be open to them the next time.

I TOOK THE FLYER! LMAO! that’s why she said she’d be back. I won’t open the door the next time.
I am torn though, bc i have experiences with the Witnesses. When i was in college, one summer i worked with several and we talked religion. They do not believe in the Trinity, i do know that, bc i clearly recall the one guy saying to me about “your freakish Three-headed God” One of my friends from Campus Crusade for Christ gave me a booklet with a point by point refutation of their beliefs with bible verses etc. I don’t recall any of it and that booklet is long gone, and i probably will not open the door but i am never afraid of speaking of what i believe.
