Something about breakfast and the text maybe?
unfortunately she couldn't remember any of them
experiences or bethelites?
This reminds of when JWs would come up and say, "Wasn't that a wonderful talk!"
I would ask, "What point stood out?"
They would get a glazed look and walk away.
Duh

ohhhh blondie..that is so funny, I was one of those...'what a great talk' and then remember maybe 1 point. Or sometimes, when everyone was saying what a great talk, I would just go along. There was no bloody way you could critizise a brother for giving a bad talk. Oh I remember the days of pretending to be so 'happy'...not.....lol
I am so glad I can be honest with those around me and with myself...

You spend hundreds of $$$$, lose work, spend three days sittin on yer arse.....then when it comes time to review the assembly program on thursday night and you forgot your "notes".....ya can't remember a damn thing........but.....you say that was the best assembly ever! I shoulda bought some real estate with the dang money I wasted!

If it makes ya feel any better, Gumby, I think the WTS bought real estate with at least some of the dang money you wasted.

Gee that sounded like me. Everytime I went to a meeting I left DUMB FOUNDED
My sisters and I used to get in trouble on the way home from either an assembly or a meeting if we couldn't come up with something that we learned. Usually all I could show was dooddling (is that a word?). Sometimes I'd get busted for writing notes. That's when the "hard" questions would start!
