  I had breakfast with 50+ JWs on Sunday

  we pulled into a hotel parking lot saturday around 6pm on the return leg of a wonderful family vacation to new england - an then fate stepped in---a man in a suit got out of a car with the rest of a picture perfect family.

  i immediately noticed all the name tags--- and my blood pressure spiked 50pts- damn!!

  i was booked in a 4 story hotel full of jws-- the only time they took off the name tags was in the swimming pool- they were so proud of themselves.. at 6:30 am the hot water went cold in the wife's shower- what do you expect on the 4th floor when a herd of jws is trying to get ready at the same time?

  i just found a copy of the elders handbook on another site, and before i go gun-ho with it at some members of my family, i would like to know whether anyone here can corroborate its authenticity.

  i've posted a link to it here.

  so this jaw bone of early man has been dated at 2.8 million years old.

  that means that given a margin for error and allowing an unknown but short period of time for adam naming the animals the 1000 years starts in ummm, eerrr.

  It would be nice to have access to an X-ray or cone beam tomography of the piece, we may se other features such as number of roots from each tooth, bone density, thickness of the enamel layer, etc...

  From an almost-dentist (I'm in the 5th year of studying) the last molars, are IDENTICAL to modern human ones, 1st lower molar has 5 cusps, and 2nd lower molar has 4 cusp, so there is full coincidence, no wisdom molar is shown, so it can be inferred that this jaw is from a juvenile... And in the other hand I see more than usual space for the premolars and canine, it seems that in the image we have 2 molars, 2 premolars, 1 canine and 1 incisor, but there is plenty of space there for more incisors, OR the shape of the mandible were more of a V than a U.

  4 Waiting the Assemblies prayers to end... Especially the closing one on the last day

  3 Preparing a talk, happily a had some kind of talent for speaking in public so my lats talks were IMPROVISED with just 4-6 principal ideas and 3 Bible quotes, it was nice to hear after "oh we noticed your preparation" hahahahaha easy thing when it's been the same "information" and "Reasoning book" base all over since I had 6 or 7 years (my first public reading)

  2 Field service in the part of the world that is under the Ozone Layer Hole, I can tell you that the sun it's more dangerous and pain inflicter here than anywhere!
