Same for me. I had a couple prospects at my hall but so far they have all fizzled out. I would think that if someone else was awake in my Congo it would be pretty easy to pick up on my feelings.

Of course the city is going to go for a cash grab. Can't blame em. The Borg offered 5 million and the city is sniffing to see if they can get more. Maybe they will get 7 mill or something. For the most part WT has been a good tenant in Brooklyn. In the near future all of the WT Brooklyn properties will be returned to the city tax doles. I'm surprised that the city council is picking now to complain about my cult. -

In Holly Michigan around 1996 one JW murdered another. He was I think 18 at the time. He is still in prison and still a JW now. There was a write up about him in the paper prob about 5 years ago. I'm sure I could find the article if I had to. I can't remember his last name at the moment. -

C of C is a very strict religion. No dancing. No booze. More struck than dubs in many respects. There are divisions among them though and some branches may be more strict than others. -

Some thoughts on the new midweek meeting
by Saltheart Foamfollower inthe new midweek meeting has been running for a month now.
here are my thoughts on how it is going so far:.
1) elders are looking frazzled from being on virtually every meeting and having to prepare unfamiliar formats for items.

My take
1. The clam is more boring (than the TMS (didn't think that was possible)
2. Those 3 presentations every week are gonna get real old real fast
3. Having the book study at the end makes the meeting really drag on for me.

The Govs list is great except for 6&7. Six is an ASSHOLE move and seven is presumptuous. I would add that whenever meeting with the elders start crying and say "I can't believe I brought so much reproach on Jehovahs name".
