  years ago i remember there being a number of sites with pretty extensive archives of watchtower publications online.

  can anyone direct me to the best current site for this material?

  in particular i am looking for a booklet from 1898 called "the bible vs. the theory of evolution".

  You can force google to limit its search to a list of sites. Just replace the word "search" for what ever you are looking for.

  attention lurkers... monday, october 1, 2012 is the 98th anniversary of jesus' rulership!i'll just let the watchtower magazine speak for itself...october 1, 1914, on taking his place at the breakfast table in the brooklyn bethel dining-room, he in a strong voice denoting conviction announced: the gentile times have ended!

  -watchtower july 15 1950 page 216 pargraph 1 those seven appointed times of the nations ended in the early autumn of 1914, about october 1. before then the good news of the established kingdom could not be preached.

  -watchtower october 15 1955 page 623 paragraph 7october 1, 1914, is now more than forty-two years ago and the kingdoms fight at armageddon is fast nearing.

  Any funny stories of when a"brother" giving a talk, said something "funny" or "questionable", and didn't even realize it?

  there were always all types of speakers in the org.

  myself, growing up a "witness", must have heard all types of talks, and given by all manner of speakers, especially on sundays, when almost every week we would get a "visiting" brother giving the public talk.. sometimes, you would have a "great" speaker, all fluent and animated.

  other times we would get a comical speaker, one who would maybe purposelly get a few laughs outta the audience.

  There was an mp3 that was floating around US Bethel in the mid 2000's of a DC Talk where the Bethel speaker was trying to describe the difference between a Squid and an Octopus. He kept say Testicles when he meant to say tentacles.

  We got a stern talking to for not being loving and shaming our brother.

  "Midweek Meeting" and "Weekend Meeting" are now the official names.

  TO ALL BODIES OF ELDERS
  Re: Signs Announcing Meeting Times
  Dear Brothers:
  In view of the upcoming adjustments to our congregation meetings, please note the wording
  that should appear on signs that announce meeting times:
  Midweek Meeting [Day and Time]
  Weekend Meeting [Day and Time]
  If adjustments other than wording are made to the sign, please confirm that any zoning
  regulations are adhered to. Any expenses incurred would be the responsibility of the congregation
  rather than the branch office.
  We send our warm Christian love and best wishes.
  Your brothers,
