Does the grinch represent the JW's

by smurfy in

just a thought.

i grew up with how the grinch stole christmas and how at the end of the story he saw what the true meaning of christmas was.

however this year, the first time i was reading this story to my 5 yr old son with my fiancee in the room i started to giggle about how much it seemed to represent parts of his past.

Stupid Things People Have Done

this is just a thread to post your stories about people in your lives and the stupid things they've done.. my dad had this friend named jack.

the guy seemed a little nuts.

this guy nailed strips of stainless steel to the bottom of his winter boots because the soles were split down the middle.

well, this christmas i decided to take my five year old son and my fiancee to see the big light celebration at Lake Anna. It's my fiancee's first christmas so i have totally been trying to outdo myself. we were outside waiting for santa to show up and flip the switch on the lights for about 30 minutes, then another thirty minutes waiting to go on a horse drawn carriage ride around the lake. the whole time it had to be about 20 degrees faranheit. so by the time we got done with that we were all FREEEEEEEZING!!! the first open door we saw we decided to go in. the whole town celebrates this event and has open houses with refreshments and crafts and its a real great time. anyways, as soon as we go in the "building" we get some "HOT" coffee and cookies. before i even get a chance to sit down my son grabs for his cookies and spills the "HOT" coffee all over my "FREEZING" cold lap. Natually the first worlds out of my mouth were "GOD D#$%#$%#" My fiancee just kind of looked at me and turned away like he didn't even know me. well, i thought, no big deal, anyone else in my pants would have done the same thing. it wasn't until later i was informed we were sitting in a church and EVERYBODY heard what i said and turned and stared at me! OOOOPS!! Ouch

The Society has given up on "holiday witnessing"

by dothemath in

.

up until a few years ago......every dec. km had a part encouraging everyone to go in the ministry on the holidays.......christmas day, etc.. no one ever got too excited about it in our cong.

.........it was pretty much a joke to everyone even when commenting on it during the meeting part.. that no longer seems to be the case..........haven't seen any parts like this for a few years now......i guess they've given up completely.. the meeting part usually included some "fine experiences"......but i have heard exactly the opposite from some who actually tried it one time.. have any of you ever went in service on christmas day?
