    I drove by a house today in North Long Beach and what did I see? You guessed it! 3 on 3 team basketball and the uniforms were nothing less than dress pants, dress shoes and a tie!

    Must have been j-dubs!

    What do they call it? A 'get together' ???

    Um, JW's don't have to always dress that way. They can wear jeans and teeshirts to "get-togethers".

    It's "gatherings" where I'm from. And they probably were JW's. Who else is so comfortable in that attire? We were always playing football in the street after service in ties.

    It had to be dubs. At my wedding, some folks were doing the same thing. Nobody tore their tux, as far as I know. (Rented anyway)

    No brother, they call it 'counting time'.

    'counting time'

    If they played with at least one worldly person, they were displaying love, harmony, normalcy of JW's. Once I started doubting, I learned to count time just like many pioneers do. I would count one hundred percent of game time, now. In the past, I would have counted zero.
