Now that I'm no longer apart of FWBBC

Now that I am no longer apart of Free Will Baptist Bible College, I see no reason to continue to bleep out certain letters of the name. And furthermore, why should I? Don't I have the freedom of speech? Don't I have the right to mention an organization by name? Red Cross, BoJangles, Pepsi... Are they going to sue me know because I just mentioned their names?

This is not a blog set up or sustained by FWBBC- it is a blog of a former student.

Please do not misunderstand.

I will be reviving this blog because I believe everyone needs a good laugh every once and awhile. And everyone needs a little encouragement every once and awhile.

Also, this is not affiliated in any way to THE GIST (thegistpub.org/com/net/etc).

Who is interested in seeing the "FWBBC gist" revived?

Do you ever feel like you are a king of a nation? Well I did today.

I was sitting in my chair watching tv this morning, my wife and dog still asleep, and Coming to America was on. I hadn't seen the show in a while and was reminded of some dialouge in the movie that really touched me.

Remember the movie? It had EddieMurphy playing the part of a prince (of some African nation) who wanted to find a wife that he loved and who loved him (but not for being a prince)... so he goes to America (and takes along his friend)-- they do the dating scene in the bars and then they both get a job at McDowells.................And that is where I started feeling very connected with the movie.

Mr. McDowell explains why his restaurant "McDowells" is different from "McDonalds" (can I say that...McDonalds... is that against in any laws?)-- anyway, He says that:

>McDonalds has the "Big Mac" and McDowells has the "Big Mic".

>They (McDonalds) has the "Golden Arches" while we (McDowells) have the "Golden Arcs".

>Their Big Mac has a sesimi seed bun, and 'ours' doesn't.
*****
Well... Thats kinda the way I feel with the 'gist'.

>They have "The Gist", I have "The G*st".

>They have the "bashing of Billy Graham"(see www.thegistpub.com, and see the Fall 2005 issue), I have the "bashing of Jared A."

>They have "A Free Voice for Free will Bapstists", I have "A slanted voice for F*ee W*ll B*ptist Bible College"....

>Their writer left the full time pastorate in 1995 (see www.thegistpub.com, biographical information), This writer left the 4th grade in 1995...

You see-- we are so different, its funny. I am contemplating a revival of Fw*bc News (a 'subgroup of the g/st".... Let me know your thoughts.

Filthy gossip or Freedom of Speech?

Well-- I will have to say that a comment did disturb me yesterday. Someone on the Matt/Allison Survey said I was continuing to spread filthy gossip, etc. Well, lets talk about that. On a phone call with the AC_U --I was told that I had done nothing wrong. And if I was contacted further about this "issue" to please call the Tennessee chapter and they would be happy to send a representative to sit with me during the "meetings"1(see note at bottom). Since I do not feel privy to release any information about the last meeting with administration-- I will not comment as to the parameters suggested. Therefore, I will only say that I feel very comfortable saying I am not stepping over any boundaries with the administration.

This blog has been, and continues to be a place for students of an institution which will remain nameless to come and read on MY rants and MY "issues" -- this is in no way backed by any organization, institution or establishment. Whatever I feel like writing about, I write about. {Period}

My promises:
I will not change one post that has already been posted {PERIOD}.
I will not change this blog's "reason for existence" {PERIOD}.
I will continue to be as watchful for comments that are out of hand, and for posts that I may write and includes the name Free ------->.



Please note that some information in this blog is not factual. For instance, the American Cow Liberators Union (of America), will not be visiting the campus of FW--C. And they will not send a representative about bovine cultivation. Sorry for any confusion with that. -JL
