    Anybody have any idea what day it is on this year?

    Not that I am anxious to attend and hear the same d@mn talk as always, but my mother wants to know. Thanks.

    Nisan 14, same as last year...

    No, seriously. March 24th: http://www.watchtower.org/library/w/1998/3/15/article_01.htm

    (They put the answer on the very last line of the page!)

    Im so tempted to never go to those again...Its like a meeting..with alot of people you dont know, have never met, and then you have to listen to the elders for hours on a random night.
    Bah.

    You sure it is the 24th? That was the 1998 Watchtower. Do you have one of them fancy calenders that let you know what day corresponds with Nisan 14?

    You're right, I should have mentioned that it has the correct date despite the year. Apparently they update the article on the website rather than write a new one. (There's no money in writing a new web article, no dubs to buy 20,000,000 copies of it.)

    Pretty good, Dave!!!

    There's just no return when you give free because you received free.

    Yes, it's time again for the borg to pull out and dust off their cardboard Jesus so they can parade it around the Hall for five minutes to prove they are a Christain religion and not a book publishing company masquerading as a relgion. Then they will shove "Jesus" back in the closet until next year!

    well this is hillarious. March 24th this year is 13 Adar II on the Jewish calendar, which is the day before Purim. 14th Nisan is actually on April 24th of this year.

    Leave it up to the botchtower to screw up the dates!!

    When someone asks why we weren't at the Memorial this year, let's tell them we were there, but we "returned invisibly"!
