Got backstage and meet George Benson and his son Robbie after one of his concerts by pleeding with his security gaurd to show him my pioneer card as ID. Security were instructed by George only to let in those with the ID. We were shown into his dressing room and he greeted us with "are you my sisters?" and a really big hug! - Very nice man - dont know if he is still JW
also met:
The queen
Chris de something that sang lady in red
and a few Scottish celebs - most of them from the world of football

The Star Spangled Banner....
by Evesapple in.
this morning my daughter was practicing the song for her 8th grade graduation.......i sung it at a few cubs games but don't really know the words....i'm sure it was due to my jw non-participation in singing such pagan songs...... does anyone else know this song all the way through???

Heeeeeeeeee's baaaaaaaack...
by Jim_TX inwell, as most know... last week i was in italy... texas (i just love the effect that has on some... *grin*).. i got there on monday around 6pm - past their office closing time, but decided to swing by the main office anyway to check out the domes there.
when i drove up, there was already a new dome on-site, and the work crew were rolling up hoses, and pretty much shutting down for the evening.
my heart sunk!

Welcome littlemike,
leaving was very hard - i walked away form my family and friends. I felt i had wasted my entire youth. was brought up jw most of my life - then pioneered. i have had to rebuild my life - with real friends. Peole who have something in common with me not my religion. please believe me when i say that you have made the biggest and hardest step. take all the good bits about your life to date and forget about the cr*p. These feelings are hard to deal with - i can relate so well to how you feel - but it will get better.
looking forward to getting to know you,
Welcome to the World - come in and enjoy all it has to offer.
Kind regards

YPA - Why do only poor people pioneer?
YPA - What?s a homosexual? ( this was a true question asked in front of the whole congregation during a public talk by a 9 year old boy - you can imagine the response)

JW Suicides
by dmouse ini heard some sad news today.
an old friend of my mum's has apparentely committed suicide.
i remember the woman well, a devout jw with an amazing sense of humour and a lovely personality.

Dmouse,
I am sorry to say that I have known quite a few jw who have committed suicide. Most have had their funeral in the KH as the elders felt that they must have been mentally ill to have done such a thing therefore not accountable. I agree - this degree of sympathy has been a reflection in the persons standing in the hall prior to their death.
