The recent post on how we felt about apostates when we were dubs made me remember something, which I touched on in the post. When I was 11 my entire damn family visited bethel in Brooklyn. There was a grey-haired older fellow that stayed outside the facility yelling at the top of his lungs. Anyone going in to the headquarters would be a traget of yelling. "Look at these beautiful women, they should be posing in Playboy instead of going door to door!!" he would shout...at my mother and aunt (eeeww). Anyway, the bros said he had been at it for years. Don't even know if he's still at it or if he's even alive. Does anyone out there know who I'm talking about?
HELP! Does anyone remember this guy?

That's it!! I remember the whore comments. I also now remember a brother said that while he was in bethel that a WT delivery truck hit (accidently). I didn't know it killed him though. Guess I need to go replace him...

I remember a guy like that who was there when I visited Bethel in 1972. He was standing outside, basically shouting at the building, though I don't recall him accosting any passersby. I, along with a small group from my congregation, was getting a private tour from a friend, who was a Gilead student. He said that the guy had been a JW but got mad and left 'the truth' because they didn't make him an elder (or congregation servant, or whatever position it was back then).

If my memory is still working, "Mr. Coffee" was disfellowhipped for smoking. He felt that drinking coffee was as addictive as smoking. I remembered seeing him there and the Brother we were visiting mentioned that.
