Personally I thought the meetings were cool. Reading some of the repetitions now, it seems kinda dull. But I was in in 88, out in 95 and by then I was missing a lot of meetings. But for a person who likes to talk, the JW concept is pretty cool. I know lots that didnt like goin door to door, I did it before the JWs and have done it since.
One time me and a brother were in a car group with a sister and someone else. I cannot recall who the fourth was, even whether it was a brother and a sister. What I do remember was a young, footballish type dude came to the door. The sister was a total hottie. The brother leans over to me and says, now tell me, if she was at your door wouldnt you listen to?
Then there was the time he and her and I and another sister and her brother and I all prepared for the meeting together. The watchtower study said something about spiritual supermen. Or we came up with the term based on the study. Well I told them all I as gonna do this (and I put my hands out, one drawn back and the other pointed forward, as superman would do). They cracked up thinking I was joking. Then they pleaded with me not to do it lest they burst out in the meeting. Well, I agreed, sorta. Then I accidently dropped my magazine at that moment, really I did. And I couldnt resist, so I pointed to the floor. I was kicked from all sides.
Then there was the time I was on an assembly part. So we had a big thing in one of the halls to prepare. One of the sister's said on her part, that at this point she didnt know if her study was going to get baptised or not but if she was, she would say so then. Well, she said so. I was so exhuberant I burst out clapping.
All
by
myself.
This went on for about 15 seconds, with me clapping really loudly, and standing up. Eventually the rest of the 1200 or so took their cue and joined in.
Later my part came up, the pioneer part. I speak loud, and I speak with my hands as well. It is an Irish thing. Afterwards I was surrounded by twenty of the hottest women Ive ever see. Oh brother frantz this and oh brother frantz that. Of course back then I was pretty naive. Now I would just tell them to...oh wait better becareful what I say here. But those of you from yahoo know EXACTLY what I would do now (and NO it has nothing to do with six, seven and eight)
Then there was the time when a young brother got up to give a talk, in the main hall. I was still fairly ignorant of things at that time, even though I had been a witness a few years and was a pioneer. After he finished his talk, I clapped vigorously. Which of course spurred the rest of the congregation to join in.
Then was the time that I had a pioneer part on the service meeting. I don't think I had been at that hall too long. Maybe a few months. One of the sisters was a big vegetarian and had convinced me to try it. I did, and was satisfied. So I said that on the meeting part...I could see some of the folks cringing, but she had a huge smile. Btw, she was the mum of the hottie sister I mentioned earlier, used to be a model and was a hottie herself.
Then was the time that I was out with my sister, at the first hall. We were out with another brother sister team. My sister somehow cut her finger, or slammed her finger in my car door or something. I cannot recal. At any rate, we decided to pull into Kenny Kings (thats Kentucky Fried Chicken to you uninitiated) and get a cup of ice. Well I didnt feel right just getting free ice so I ordered a soda as well. One cup of ice, and one soda. They double checked I said yes. Well his sister leans up and says 'ask for four straws'. He yells at her DONT tell him that he will doo....too late, I was askin for four straws. When we pulled up to the window and the entire staff was crowded around. BTW his sister was a hottie too.
Then there was a number of times I started hangin out with the folks from the sister congregation, because no one from my congregation would go out in the afternoon. (This was the first congregation I attended, the other was a rural and didnt have a sister congregation) Well we used to just go out for all hours. Then we would drive around, just hanging out. It was phenomenal. Two sisters, a brother of one of the sisters, and me. Now the sister of the brother was a hottie. And she had buck teeth too.
So anyhow the four of us were out one time. I worked for this brother that had an insurance firm. Very well off. So I decided to show them late one saturday evening, his very large and posh office. Called him since the security guard would not let us up without approval. Then we played netwars all night long. That is an old maze game that came with the Novell operating system. It was multiplayer and we hunted each other down and the baddies.
Maybe it is just me. Maybe the content of the meetings is pretty dull. I kinda figure a meeting really isnt about the content. Anymore than a game is about the game. It is just a way for people to get together. And I think I met a lot of cool people at the hall.
And something else, is it me, or do fringe religions have a disproportionate amount of hotties, when compared with other religions?
