    I agree with Purza...no point in it....not even remotely curious.....I have better things to do with my time besides sitting and listening to bs for hours on end.....

    well it's been about forty five years since I was last drug off to an "ASSembly" so I'm not thinkin I'll be looking for a place to waste time, unless of course there's a forty foot square tv screen with the NBA playoffs on!! Not likely

    So, who's going to the Convention this year?

    Not me - public puking is not polite or pleasant.

    Are you going to attend all of it?

    Not me - public puking is not polite or pleasant, even a little bit.

    Some of it?

    See above.

    What are you going to do there?

    Wellllll, k, I work not far from where it will take place, so I may do a drive-by on the friday sessions just to remind myself of all the good reasons why I'm not going. Like, a day off of work for instance lol.

    The last year I went to the convention, I only went for one day.

    Last year I skipped a shyteload of talks by lunch-naps in the camper, and driving around town with the lil' one who was restless. Went to a workmates place and had ice tea as well. Now if they had these darn things in a theatre with soft, reclining seats, I might just find some time to go and 'catch up'.....heh heh...on some beauty sleep. boa

    I would like to go to some of it, just to satisfy my curiosity on a few things. Only problem is that I'm out of touch, so I'm not sure how to find out what date the darn thing is. Do they still print a list of dates and times on the back of a WT issue? If they do, maybe one of you guys that still gets the mags would PM me with dates and times for Birmingham, AL.

    Thanks,

    Aww...now I have to go with all these great ideas about where to leave "apostate" literature. I especially like the idea of taping it to the back of the stall doors.

    Going this year? I cannot imagine a bigger waste of time.

    The only reason to go would be to place some illegal contraband (apostate literature). That would be a bit of a kick. However, do any of us REALLY believe that that would make any impact, other than fueling the Witness persecution conspiracy?

    Donate a check written to a fictious person. See if they try to cash it.

    so I'm not sure how to find out what date the darn thing is.

    You can find the convention list on the WT Media web site:

    I linked to the site mentioned above and it doesn't list the conventions for 2004 in Canada, does anyone know how I could find the list for canadian conventions.

    Thanks
