No, never. I always suffered from the need to exercise reverse discrimination. But seriously, no, I was very uncomfortable around elders, their wives, and especially the C.O. and his wife, unless there was a really special one who didn't believe their own press - like Mary Jo Shen - but rarely even said hello to them, and was uncomfortable when they would come over to me to say hello.

So maybe it's a little like The Church Lady on Saturday Night Live, which, in its context, is clearly understood to be funny, and for the purpose of ridiculing the one speaking, that is, the Church Lady, for her ridiculous views.

I used to enjoy talking to the friends whenever I went out in service, either in the car group or standing on the corner, "re-grouping." That was nice.

plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal ready, on time for his return.

I don't believe in shunning, Pleasuredome, so I will respond, but only for that reason.
It would be lovely to be this kind of wife - If there were enough men capable of providing for their families so that the woman of the house could have the LUXURY of simply taking care of her home and family.
Sheese what a jerk.

Hey Dark Knight! Since you so rarely ever post, you will probably never see this response to your querie about still being a Newbie! But you only have 4 posts to go and you will be a Junior.
But who the heck cares?? You are really out there living and enjoying your life - that's what matters! I congratulate you!

I don't know what to say, Plezsh - but Holocaust info is always of interest to me.
I met a young German man last year at work who seemed sincerely perplexed as to whether the Holocaust accounts were really true! Said something like "I don't know. It's hard to believe that so many good, intelligent, GERMAN people could have been involved in something so horrible."
Can't help wondering what he's been taught all his life, and by whom!!!

Thanks so much for posting that article - the more exposure the better. So many Witnesses are probably totally in the dark about their supposedly "clean" and "safe" organization and congregations. Supposed to avoid outsiders - HAH!
