  theresa may the british p.m. has called for an election.. the house of commons has to vote tomorrow and have a two-thirds majority to agree and the main opposition parties want it to happen too so it looks pretty certain to go ahead..

  i hope if there is to be another referendum on scotland going independant---that everyone in the UK gets the vote. the Scottish pro-independance guys may well get their wish !

  UK Memorial attendances up this year?!

  my congregation had around 25 more people at the memorial last night than last year, and the two other congregations i have family in all experienced a similar increase in about 25 more people present.

  umm, i'm surprised, having thought this year would see a memorial decline again.

  and i'm kind of disappointed..

  A baffling physics question

  by FatFreek 2005 in

  for several weeks i've been treating myself to a hot chocolate milk (well, soymilk) before bedtime.

  some 16 oz soymilk which i heat on high in our microwave oven.

  this is just enough time where the liquid begins to bubble along the top edge.. i then take it out of the microwave and place it on my kitchen gram scale, stir it good enough to redistribute the heat, then reset the scale to zero grams.. next, i squeeze in the hershey's sytup, "special dark mildly sweet chocolate" (fat free) into the warmed soymilk till the scale reads some 30 grams.

  The real physics question is how much weight will you gain over the next few weeks!

  i used to dread seeing a witness coming toward me.

  now i am quite comfortable and hope that they may say something to me..... does your blood pressure rise when you see a jw coming toward you?

  i was a dub in my teens...1961-68. i lived in Birmingham UK----sometimes referred to as the "2nd city"---2nd to London in population size at that time. there were 3 circuits--and--i suppose--about 2 dozen congregations.

  very few had their own Kingdom Hall. Most met in rented private halls---schools--anywhere that was available to rent. some were really shabby .

  it was always a major achievement when a congregation finally got their own place...usually a used run down place needing a lot of time, effort--and money--to get it to a standard that would be a fine witness to jehovah. this often meant years of savings--donations--from the members. this was before the quick build era began.

  but the members were--proud ( ? ) of their achievement. it created a sense of really belonging. and new memberships were growing.

  fast forward 50 years. here we are---congregations having their halls snatched away from around them. the one in the town where i live---one of the first quick builds in the UK---the members turfed out and the place sold for half a million.

  shame on you watchtower.

  but at least it shows what you really are. pity the fools cant open their eyes and see whats going on.
