  Start a discussion group on myspace or somewhere like that, and post the kookiest doctrinal teachings you can find (ie birds picking the eyes out of unbelievers), making it look as though you agree with the teachings. Then you can both get your hours in and ensure no one is inadvertently impressed with what you say.

  Or as others said, put some anti-cult stuff in the magazines as you place them. A handwritten note: "Help! I am trapped in a mind control cult." I have some brochures if you want them!

  OR better yet, count your time on JWD!

  Hi Stilla

  Taking part in the non-stop, perpetual Jdub membership drive? Poor you.

  I don't envy you Stilla, it's hard living with jw parents when you're a young adult. I knew a girl who did the same as you're gonna just to get a car. For me and my integrity it just wouldn't feel right. But it's up to you.

  or I can be the Brooklyn slave that she thinks I am, suffer for a month of street witnessing and early morning and most likely she'll talk her dad into helping me out in buying the car I actually want

  Aw heck, you've already been a slave for them for how many years?? Doing it for another month, if it'll help you get a car might be worth it.........

  I feel so badly for you. I know the pressure you are under. You might tell everyone you got a lot of time in, talking to a non JW relative, or neighbor.

  When I was a regular pioneer, one of the other women, a lifelong friend of mine, always had her time in long before the month was over, but seldome met with the group. I knew she was faking it, but she wanted the "glory" of being a pioneer.

  Try to have fun, (is that even possible?) and know we are thinking of you.

  Try this neat trick: when going in service, refuse to take all other literature except for your Bible! That's right, do not take a book bag.

  If someone gives you grief, immediately open to the scripture that says "where two or more are gathered in my name" or some such--showing that you too have the holy spirit while engaging in field service!

  Someone know where that scripture is, can you quote it?

  whyizit: But if you are determined to do it, maybe you could use it as a way to try to prevent members, rather than gain them

  That is a wonderful idea! Just doing my part to save the world.

  Frannie: I'd be very careful about putting anything in writing or in a mag that's anti-jdubya, since you'll be placing pubs face-to-face with people. You never know when you might place that "bomb" with someone who's related to a jdubya and word could get back about what you're doing.

  You make a point Frannie baby. That is a serious matter that should be done carefully.

  Honesty: Ask for a sunroof and maybe a nice set of spinners.

  LOL! Sure but i'm such a girly girl that all I'm worried about is if its got AC and a CD player.

  mkr: Maybe you could come up with something to sell at the doors... I dunno amway or something or maybe some of the local business would pay you to talk about their products! Then just go to doors by yourself and try to make some money!

  I like the way you think my friend!

  bikerchic: Pioneering so you can get a car from Mommy dearest.......sorta puts a whole new spin on the phrase "PIMP MY RIDE!"

  Xzbit would be proud!

  rebel8: OR better yet, count your time on JWD!

  I'm way ahead of ya!
