    Below is a note taking session between my brother and I. I must have been around 15 and him 13. I vaguely remember writing this. I came across it going through some old papers.

    B- what do you want to do after the meeting?

    me- maybe mom will take us to rent a movie

    B- if she does it will be some sucky PG rated one.

    me-yep

    B- is sister XXXXX butt getting bigger. I swear everytime I see her it looks bigger.

    me- I have not paid close attention

    B- well you should. how can you stand going to these meetings all the time? i can barely stand twice a month.

    me- you learn to tune people out. I usually replay movies in my head.

    B- does brother XXXX still fart all the time?

    me- yep

    B- that XXXX sure is hot.

    me- she is too old for you

    B- says who

    me- the law says

    B- screw the law.

    me- whatever

    B- I was out passed curfew at the park and I got taken home by the police last weekend. Thank god dad has custody of me otherwise I would have mom on my ass. how can you stand being around mom all the time? you should move in with me and dad.

    me- I don't want to change high schools and you learn to tolerate mom. tell me more about your ride home by the police.

    B- it was no big deal. dad was more pissed about getting woken up from his sleep. he gave me a warning.

    That was the end of the notes. We did this all the time. I must have not been in the mood to write notes then because I would usually write a lot more than that. That is the only notes I have come across so far. If I find more I will post them.

    Ah, the memories!

    Unbeliever, thanks for sharing your notes and for bringing back memories! Passing notes was the only joy I ever had at the KH.

    Sometimes my mother would get so upset because she could see I was shaking with suppressed laughter.....she would then make me change seats to be far away from my note passing cohort. I remember sometimes writing the notes on my Watchtower, and after the meeting trying to find a way to dispose of the Watchtower covered with incriminating notes to my friend scribbled all over it...

    But when I got a little older, I had a note passing experience that I still hold close to my heart: I was about 17.5 year old, just waiting to be 18 and escape,...sitting by my mother at a CA, and SHE passed a note to me about something funny! We passed notes during the whole talk making fun of the talk and the chairs and the whole experience. I remember the talk was about "Youths" and "wholesome activities" or something. And I remember at the end of the talk, my Mom (my MOM!) passed the note back to me and it said:

    "They should have called this talk "Youths: NO FUN ALLOWED!"

    I never felt so close to my mom.

    lol unbeliever, that was great. My girlfriends and i used to do that. Usually someone would admonish me to "listen to the meeting"!

    We always did that too..If you took a look at my Babylon Book now you would see a major monolog going.. unfortunately you need my ex best friends book to figure out the other half of the conversation... plus we always scribbled out names after we read each others note so that we couldn't get caught later who were were talking about.. which was typically the boys we had crushes on in the cong.
