As part of the 12th corps I do not recall seeing the dog flick. I do however, remember hearing of it before in residence. Glad I missed it or forgot about it whichever the case may be. But the suicides... :(

A cafe mocha sounds great! Had one this morning. :D

LEAD, LMAO! What all of that had to do with God, other than being in a beautiful setting created by God, was beyond me. Yeah, the sweat lodge thing was a little weird. Overall, I enjoyed LEAD at the time. Especially the Australian rappel, what a rush! It was definately demanding but a fond memory for me. I can still see the roadrunner on the other side of the road while hitching. The scenery of the El Capitan mtns was beautiful. The first time, me and the parnter got back 17 or so hrs early. Two gentlemen in a nice sedan picked us up. I remember noticing they both had rolex watches. I fell asleep in the car while my partner was talking with them. I woke up and we were nearing Lubbock. Off the route! These guys took us to the airport and put us on a plane! On my second trip I got reamed by one of the coordinators at the end of my duo. Their question had something to do with my communing with God during the duo. They were convinced that I should have heard him more or something like that while on the duo. I told them I could hear God in a city just as well as I could in the woods. That turned out to be the wrong answer, LOL! The corps coor wasn't very impressed with the plane ride or the city vs duo reply. :lol:

I was there from Jan to May 84. Really enjoyed it, what a beautiful place. I remember the huge elk that would stand at the top of the hill behind the maintenance building. His antlers looked like some giant radar screen moving from side to side. While I was there they wanted to me to build a horse rack. We went into town and measured one at a vets office. Wonder if it is still there.

Although I cannot place your names I may have met you. I took the 'freedom class' in Bham that year.

ex10, No I left there the following year. But I lived not far from where you are now. Off 45 and Rankin road.

I was 'most likely' a cult member. Yes THE WAY INTERNATIONAL scores 'high' on the checklist for sure. hmmm never would have considered at the time that I was involved with a cult.... ____

So it came to this huh... This is very dissapointing to say the least. It wasn't at all like that when I was in. I can't even concieve thinking that way. Well I wonder how many of those people just blew off The Way International for their assinine behavior. I certainly know how I would have responded. At the least twi cut themselves off from potential abs funding. Not to mention the much bigger picture of shepherding God's flock. Man these guys have gotten sooo off the mark. They have totally lost sight of a christian ministry. How people can stay involved and put up with this sort of behavior and treatment is beyond me. I sure hope they can overcome whatever is hindering them from 'wiping the dust from there feet' and moving on with real life. I can be done and done successfully. ____
