    4. Looking for talent.

    5. Looking friendly.

    6. Looking guilty. (huh??)

    9. Looking for the coach.

    10. Looking for my car.

    Ooooo you forgot the best one...

    Reading the book you smuggled inside your bible. You could read and everyone thought you were really into the scripture.

    Besides that....just looking at other people. Wondering when my real family was going to come rescue me from this freak show.

    For the last 20 years I have found the conventions to be soooooooooooooooo boring.

    I would bring something to read in a Bible leather cover, listen to music on my walkman rather than tape the program, do Bible research unrelated to the program at hand...

    4. Looking for talent.

    Thats what I did at every assembly. The last convention I went to in 2003 I dissappeared on the Friday dinnertime to attend a wiccan ritual at a nearby holistic fair.........
