  So Mitch and I are out shopping and we come to the Target superstore parking lot and we stop to wait for a car to pull out which is close to the store.

  So, this car comes from the other direction and swoops in and edges us out of the space. The guy driving just looks at me, like "Tough, I got the space." So we see that the space right beside him is also going to open up, so we drive around and wait for it and get it and the other guy is sitting there looking at us, like uh oh, cuz he knows he screwed us out of the other space.

  The family gets out and are all dressed up in suits and ties and I say to Mitch, I bet you they are JW's. The father just struts by us with his nose in the air, very haughty. We wait for them to go inside and I peek in the front of the van. Sure enough, there lies a Kingdom song book and a Watchtower.

  Random occurrence. JW's would of course whine, oh we are all imperfect.

  JW's are, if anything ruder to their fellow humans than non-JWs.

  Thanks, I just had to vent.

  hugs

  Joel

  You are better than me, Joel.

  I woulda said something. Wouldn't have picked a fight, but I woulda said something. Like: "You must be one of those fake Christians who supposedly loves their fellow man." I've done it before. I like to see them skirm.

  The frailty of the 'holy spirit' to make changes in the lives of people. Ya gotta love it.

  Of course, Joel, after the fact is the best time to think up the perfect response.

  I might have said to the diver:

  "Oh, I think I know you! You came to my door with the Watchtower a few weeks ago. I'm glad now I didn't take your literature. I expected better consideration from so-called Christians."
