ok, this is going to drive me mad...
i just now have begun to study who the Jahovah's Witnesses are and what they beleieve...and in the process of doing this, there are a ton of things in the Bible that need some clarification from the more..."Spiritually understanding" or at leaste the people who have done more indepth study...
ok...in
Isa 6:10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
Why does God say this to Isaiah and then Jesus repeats it later...does that question make sense?
wait! is that a prophecy!? (sorrry i paused for a few minutes and was reading ahead... :)
ok...now i feel like i've opened up a ginormous window...and now i have to choose what i want to see...if that makes any sense...so...i think all this time i thought isaiah was just some guy with weird ramblings....well, i knew he did some prophesying...nevermind about that...
ok, i've just depleted in questions. i found a site that has answered most of them and the others...i can't think of them. here's the site, just in case anyone else want to understand the Bible...just a tiny bit clearer. ;)
http://www.christiananswers.net/q-eden/edn-r005.html
anyways...i bet someone out there has some pretty good answers to the few questions i have...GO FOR IT!

alright...this is for all my blonde friends...right now i can only think of about 5...
Same Lunch
An Irishman, a Mexican and a blonde guy were doing construction work on scaffolding on the 20th floor of a building. They were eating lunch and the Irishman said, "Corned beef and cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for lunch I'm going to jump off this building." The Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed, "Burritos again! If I get burritos one more time I'm going to jump off, too." The blonde opened his lunch and said, "Bologna again. If I get a bologna sandwich one more time, I'm jumping too." The next day the Irishman opened his lunch box, saw corned beef and cabbage and jumped to his death. The Mexican opened his lunch, saw a burrito and jumped too. The blonde guy opened his lunch, saw the bologna and jumped to his death as well. At the funeral the Irishman's wife was weeping. She said, "If I'd known how really tired he was of corned beef and cabbage, I never would have given it to him again!" The Mexican's wife also wept and said, "I could have given him tacos or enchiladas! I didn't realize he hated burritos so much." Everyone turned and stared at the blonde's wife. "Hey, don't look at me," she said, "He makes his own lunch!"
the funny thing is....it's NOT a woman!!! HAHAHAH!!!! ok. :)

tonight i ate like there was no tomorrow! cramming food into every crevase of my mouth. picking out the chewy fatty pices and savoring, the crisp, oily flavor of home-cooked TACO'S!!!
anyways. i decided to hop online and create a post describing tonight. it was amazing. NOT...the jr.high choir or the two bands (they were ok...) but the performance aftarwards, is what blew me away! but before i describe it, let me begin at the beginning. today i spent al day shopping with my mombecause it's her 17th anniversary in a few days and her and my dad and my cousin are heading towards the beach area! (which means i have my house all to my self!!!! PARTEEEE!!!!!)
so...when i got home at like 6:30, Lanelle calls and says "HEY! i'm picking you up in 1\2 an hour! it's Kats last Jr.High Choir Concert!...(not in those exact words.). so i throw on a skirt and a shirt and these nice black shoes. threw my hair in pony-tail (i hate that word...but nithing else comes to mind...) and attempted to put in these plasticy\metal earings. painfully, because of scar tissue in my right earlobe...and i was set...in like 5 minutes. sooo...eventually lanelle came and we were sitting by Astelle and her husband (mike?). and in between me and this random lady was an empty seat... well, with her purse on it. so we watch the choir perform. they were good i suppose. then when they were done Kat came to sit by us so i had to move into the purses spot. and then the band came up. the lower class band. and i couldn't help but notice that the lady sitting next to me was laughing HYSTERICALLY through the whole performance! it was so funny to watch i began to snicker myself. and the lady was such a size, that her whole body vibrated the chairs next to hers...MINE! and her whole body shook! HOLY COW!!!!
anyways.so that was a sligh distraction. after they performed, the older kids got up and played. they were a little bit better, and i noticed the woman didn't jiggle as much.and then, Mr.Christensen (?) made an announcement, that another group of very talented musicians would be playing afterwards, and that he hoped everyone would stay and listen. me and lanelle decided to. and the last song that the band played, all these old people joined them! it was awesome. they ranged from like 40 to "100" years old. and they had almost all, been playing since Jr.High!
So after that last song, the jr.highers flooded off the stage and even more old people piled on! they were tremendous. Old people are so fascinating. i find myself always wondering what they've been through, what they've seen and what they were like when they were my age! there was this one black old guy with this thick white beard. he played these huge drums and had that one thing that sounds like a horse AND h e also got to blow a whistle! he was AWESOME!!!
there was a lady who played the picalo. lots of french horns. all-in-all! it was amazing! :)
anyways. that was my night.
