    Luck, you dont say party, its a get together. You dont go to Church, its a hall

    We had a 'get together' for an elder and family that were moving out of the area - when it came to say goodbye I said 'Good Luck' - it just slipped out before I realised got a very strange look from the elder.

    It not free - its without charge

    When someone sneezes, you dont say "bess you". I remember when i was studying, a lady sneezed and i said Bless you, you could have heard a pin drop.

    The Watchtower is Satan's organization and the Governing Body are his right hand men.

    & Hell - can't say that either (unless of course it is necessary
    - which is why as children we LOVED talking about Hell, Michigan) !

    Not to do with things you said - but I used to hate it when trying to buy a card for a wedding or birth, that had to be one with no horse shoes or storks or any other symbol that might be considered remotely pagan.

    DON'T say: "Decrease"

    DO say: "Negative Increase"

    There was a earthshaking debate as to calling the board in the back of the hall, an information board or a bulletin board. Calling it the wrong thing could get you publicly reproved. Ha,, i can't even remember the "right" thing to call it.

    I never heard a dub say............." I am putting away a nest egg for my retirement".
