    Yes, and we all know JWs are such scholars that they'll pore over the map brochures for HOURS trying to figure out where Moses left his sandals. They really scrape the bottom of the pickle barrel looking for new material, huh?

    The bit about the three time climax made me laugh so hard I choked.

    Wow! Sounds like you had almost as good a time as I did at the assembly being upbuilt: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/53852/1.ashx

    I second or third the nomination of this as "Funniest Thread of 2003." Hilarious! My favorite part:

    As a closing point, I noticed this year that Devil-talk seemed to dominate the program. Hardly a talk went by without attributing something nefarious to Satan. He’s been one busy guy this this year – programming video games, writing books, singing, running the entire internet, designing clothes, dating young sisters, running tattoo parlors, fighting wars, terrorizing the world, shooting documentaries, masterbating, teasing children… He seems very creative. God, on the other hand, seems to have pissed away the whole year making infinitesimal adjustments to dots on maps.

    Perfect.

    Runningman, kudos for the hilarious summary. A question: apparently at several other conventions, the speaker compared romantic involvement with a non-JW as ``searching in the morgue for a marriage mate." Was that, or a similar statement made?

    Room215: I do not recall any mention of "searching the morgue for a marraige mate", and that is one of those phrases that I (or one of my kids) would have caught. I suppose the society still allows for several phrases out of every 18 hour program that can be tailored to local needs (but of course, only from a list of approved substitute phrases).

    By the way, thanks for the comments everyone. Glad to see my pain and suffering has been so amusing.

    I second the motion to nominate this as thread of the year.

    Almost makes me want to go to a convention...with a group of apostates, to sit up in the nosebleed section with a cooler full of alcoholic beverages to to an "MST3K" on it as it was going on! That would actually be kinda fun...especially if certain members of my old cong were there to see me doing it

    I can't believe you actually had a 24:14 sign. Good Lord.

    Keep it up man! Maybe the Jehoagies will be even better next year!
