    Well done you found a good way to beat the excruciating boredom of the ever repeated JW talks that have nothing of real substance to offer. You used your time constructively and outside the WTS themes.

    Eclipse, that's a hilarious list of suggestions!

    Rather than NOT saying AMEN -- which would go virtually unnoticed -- I would like to issue a strong, confident and appropriately loud AMEN! before the prayer is finished. Then gather your things and leave your seat. Attendants would be conflicted about what to do: respect the prayer, or go after you.

    Faking service, wow. I know I knocked ever so lightly for years, and those door bells don't make any noise with the right light touch. I used to do street work, and in big cities, I bet that is the easiest to fake. We always went solo so that it did not intimidate people, so lets say you are by Herald Square at 32nd and Broad, and you tell the others you are going around the block. You could go into Macy's for hours and just shop, or next do0r at that vertical mall above where Toys R Us used to be. God I love to shop esp. in NY, and no I am not gay.

    not that there's anything wrong with that!......oompa

    I used to sing in German and Spanish when everyone else was singing in English, but that was when I was deeply in the org.

    When singing replace Jesus and/or Jehovah with Santa Claus. Man, that was fun.

    Oompa, I used to try a similar ploy in order to catch a micro nap...pencil in one hand, notebook on my open bible...worked ok unless the whole lot slid off my lap onto the floor while I was still holding the pencil.
