    Sorry to tell you that Public talks vary from congregation to congregation depending on what the PO schedules (or his designee schedules). The only time the talk is the same in almost all congregations is the Special Talk after the Memorial each year (and that can vary depending on the CO visit and any assemblies).

    ohhhhhhhhh maybe you meant today's watchtower... read blondie's post on that... as for what the talk was about, that's always an easy maker-upper... it was about the following:

    Jehovah
    Urgent times
    Remaining faithful
    Stay close to the organization

    Working out with the ladies?

    Take care of yourself.

    Sorry can't help with the meeting, scan the watchtower quick and chat about that if you have too, or say that you weren't feeling well this morning and so didn't go, but that we were sorry to miss it.

    well if you already said you went then faking sick isn't the way to go then

    Glad to hear it's going well. Should I call you smartypants if you don't need to study then?

    well lunch with the parents went well today except i forgot to shave and my mom got pissed because she thinks i went to the meeting like that. apparently i also need a hair too. i talked about changing my major from environmental design architecture to biomedical science, and my mom thought it would be better since they make more money. i said i wanted to do something i enjoy because if you think about it a job will be your life. then she brought in today's study, and i sarcastically said well maybe i should quit college then, or i could use it to benefit the new world. it would be useless if i became doctor as no one will be sick. so maybe i should be an architect so i can build houses in the new world. i think i heard my dad laugh a little. best argument ever, it was calm and straight to the point. my dad has to go to some ministerial servant school next weekend. i asked him about it, its 9 hours of lecture over the publications. when my mom left the table i said it like "so its 9 hours of lecture over those books??" he replied "i would go crazy sitting through all that". i really feel sorry him. i mean his life was totally different before my mom became a witness. if youve seen the movie jarhead, he said that movie pretty much described his life in the army. i dont know how could be reduced to going to a ministerial servant school.
