I know of a couple of guys that have a serious drinking problem, but don't know for a fact that they've ever gone to the meetings a bit tipsy.
Drinking problem among the Hispanic JWs is rampant, even elders!!!

So sad to hear that your wife messed it up for the two of you.
Pretty soon you'll have imperfect men telling you how to conduct your private/intimate lives.
That's it, man, you're screwed and marked for life with these imperfect beings. Should've exercised your 'head of the household' powers and not let the little woman spoil things for you!

eating the emblems AFTER memorial...
by AuSet insorry this is a little late for a memorial post, but did any of ya'll eat the emblems like it was just ordinary food immediately after the memorial?
they always did this at my kh, even the elders would be handing it out and we always would fight over who got a piece of the "bread.
" this usually occured out in the parking lot after most of the new/interested people had already high tailed it outta there.

This is why I think the memorial is such a silly gathering.

Who do you blame for the time you wasted as a DUB?
by Thunder Rider inthink of all the time and energy you wasted sitting in meetings, going door to door and refraining from making friends and having enjoyable association with non dubs.
think about how much of your finite life is lost to you because you were a witness.
think about how foolish you looked, hanging on to the false teachings and empty hopes for the future.

I don't think it was time wasted at all. I met very nice people, had and continue to have good times often in social ocassions; learned very good manners and about many other subjects, and why not, about the Bible too. Acquired very good speaking and speech delivery methods.
No, this particular experience in my life was ever a totaly bad experience.
Examine yourselves, I'm sure it wasn't absolutely bad for anyone.

Bet you he was another one that thought he wouldn't see death before the end came.
So many like him still inside the claws of the WTBTS! Very sad!

Back from the Memorial......Special Announcement at the end....
by ScoobySnax inthe special announcement read at the end was an invite for any interested ones (tm) to ask if they wanted a bible study.....and that a special meeting will be held next sunday in all the congregations worldwide, and an invite was given for all to attend.
i loved going and was good to see all the brothers and sisters again, the po who gave the talk made a bee line for me straight after the closing prayer, straight off the platform (i had to stand as there were no seats) and asked to speak to me, and directed me to the back of the hall, i thought here we go......jc convening shortly......but no he said the wt society in london had contacted him as i'd wrote them asking for the magazines, and he would be happy to drop by and had done, but never found me at home.
so we arranged a date for him to call next week.. the hall was packed, and from my standing point i had plenty of opportunity to have a scan about, despite being horrified that their were brothers there who were betting looking than even me ( in my newly bought outfit!

The so called 'special announcement' was nothing more than the usual sales pitch.
The conclusion prayer was so long that I had time to catch some ZZZs during it.
Not many in attendance, just like the same crowd that would attend any given Sunday meeting. GOOD!!!
