    I am interested to know how many of you during CO visit gave him the money hand shake. I for one gave money through a hand shake to the CO on his last day of his visit. I remember my parents and other family members although being poor, giving the CO a nice amount of money with the golden hand shake or the sneeky sports coat pocket drop. One of my uncles although a witness, went to meetings only as a creature of habit (not really believing or able to defend) and would give a good dime when the CO visited, I think he felt as this being the way he contributed to Jahs organization.

    P.S. Do the COs declare this money on their taxes? How much do you think they get?

    Our PO told us that we should at one of our meetings, saying that the CO makes almost no money and these gifts help him to live comfortably. *gack* Give me a break, what bills does he have? No house payment, no car pament, no phone bill, no gas bill, no food bill, no medical bills ... I'd say he's already comfortable for a floor cleaner.

    I'm sure when they take off thier jacket they pull out the cash and say, "Well, I DECLARE" and that's as far as it goes. Remember, that cash is Caeser's but God gave it to him. Silly people. I was such a poor pioneer that the CO once gave me $20.00 how about that!

    That's really funny. Here in Mexico when you bribe a cop for a traffic infraction that's how you do it, with a handshake. They get very nervous it you try to just hand the money to them.
