    I have made a real effort in not trying to make fun of stereotypical JW idiosyncrasies any more but this just cracked me up.

    I’ve been out of the cult for a lot of years so please excuse me if this falls under the realm of “new light” but I have to ask. What in the hell is a “FURIT”?


    This fun for the whole JW family (only to be played after the four hour home watchtower study) game is sold right above watchtower tie clips and Hebrew and Greek scripture flash cards.

    I just hope the flash cards are made by someone who can spell a little better than guy who wrote the game description.


    I got the link to this site here on JWD as one of it’s rolling google ads.

    Hmmm.... A Furby(tm) that died and went to heaven? Wait, wrong religion. JW's don't go to heaven unless they're of the 144,000. Aren't Furby's demonized?

    LOL!

    Seven,

    Good to see you!

    BTW, I was just curious, is that you in your moniker?

    Being dyslexic I thought I just read it a bit backwards. But considering the source, it just made me laugh in a sad sort of way. With spell check coming out our Internet ears there is no reason to misspell something like that. But again, the Internet is evil.


    Steve,

    I still get my “el” and “le’s” mixed up at times. I wrote an e-mail to a client a few weeks back and my spell check turned my angles in to angels. My client got a big kick out of it. I added the time it took for me to read his long joking explanation between the two, to his bill.


    KLS,

    Just fine, working my ass off. There are a few new pieces on my site if you want to look.http://www.maloneillustration.com/


    Brenda,

    I just don’t know what is or is not demonize anymore. I got headaches from rolling my eyes when I hard about the Smurfs being targeted. I completely lost it when I heard about the ban on gay Telly Tubbies. Some people just never cease to amaze me.


    Andi,

    No, that’s just a photo of me. I’m actually sitting at home playing on my computer.

    Why? Didn’t you know I was an old guy?

    FURIT:

    1) A misspelling of 'fruit'.

    2) A brand of wire mesh.

    I always knew you were older than me. I remember you speaking of your grown kids at some point. It's just a very beautiful photo. You're very handsome!
