    I haven't turned in field circus time in more than a year and a half.

    I notice my wife's got a paperclip on her OKM (Our Kingdom Ministry)
    so, even though I haven't picked up her OKM in many many moons,
    I wonder what's behind it.

    Well, besides the DC lapel cards (that's right, 2 of them), there is
    another OKM. The first one has her name on it, the 2nd has mine.

    I just wonder if they are getting around calling on their inactive ones by
    lazily just turning in the occasional hour of field circus for me, keeping
    me on the "active" list. They certainly should have stopped issuing this
    a year ago. I doubt they are doing that, but they certainly are not doing
    their paperwork properly.

    That would seem like a total waste of paper. Obviously, you are no longer going to boasting sessions. And you are no longer going out in field circus, which is the primary purpose of those Kingdumb Miseries. It is pretty obvious that they are not doing their paperwork. If they are turning in fake time in your behalf, shame on them for helping inflate the ranks and getting them up to 7 million and higher next year.

    And giving you an embarrassment badge? What are they thinking is the chance you are even going to be at the Grand Boasting Session? I hope you will be able to get out of going there--if not, at least I hope you will not comply with the rules of wearing that embarrassment badge. What a waste.

    Nah.

    They just want their brother back.

    It's wishful thinking.

    I kept getting one for about a year after I stopped reporting service time.

    YES, you must be classed as an active publisher, if you aren't - NO KM

    I haven't had one for about 15 years, I read and copy the wife's.

    I DO get a 15th of the month Watchtower though, so do people in HMP's

    OTWO, has she been getting them and not giving them to you?

    Only shows that the elders make their own rules.

    As I see it, if you still get a Kingdumb Misery and a Kool-Aid Washtowel, you have the chance to read them and integrate the lies contained therein in your comments. However, it is nothing like when someone at Beth Hell posts it months ahead of time and everyone gets it before the congregations even know what is going on.

    A waste of paper like everything else they print.
    Don't worry. I didn't go last year, I won't go this year.

    Yeah, they are doing so much to bring him back. I don't know what that is, but it
    must be much.

    Fokyc:

    That's the rule, but I wonder.

    Blondie:

    I don't know. I suppose I will consider just asking her.

    You're just "special".

    They love you.

    Thanks for the nausiating thought.
