I am very sorry for your loss of your son and the horrific treatment of your family by such an evil Cult. I'm glad that you are free from the grips of the WTS.

Hi Groovycat and welcome!!!!!
I've been out on many Thanksgiving days and Xmas days as well. To me watching the expression of disgust on the householders face, when they opened the door and saw you standing there, was very humiliating. It was like they were saying inside "Can't you people take a holiday break and leave us in peace for just one DAY!?"
Happy Thanksgiving !!!

Hi Happy Guy,
Her is a link to where you might be able to get a download of the show you missed.
http://www.tv.org/?hop=travis24
If it isn't legit, send me a PM with a place to send you a VHS of the show, we taped it. Only thing is I only have one VCR and no way to Dub another copy, so I would like it back when you could. Let me know.
No Apologies, U2 has been a voice on the political arena since they started music. I think they are an important voice for alot of good causes.

Hi Elsewhere,
It's been pitiful with Her. Tink and I walk our dog's right by her house. She has two lovely daughters 7 and 10 years old who fell in love with Tink when they first met. When we pass by and the kids and Mom are outside you see the Mom give them a look and the kids retreat to the back yard..It's pissed us off big time!!!
It makes you feel like you have Leprosy or some other disease.

Did anyone catch last nights Sat. Night Live? U2 was the musical guest's and they Rocked!! They played three songs. "Vertigo" was the first song they played, which is their new release due out this week. The second song I didn't recognize, it might be off the new release also. They closed the end of the show with "I Will Follow" and let me tell you those Irish Boys still Kick Ass!!!
Anyone else a U2 fan?

Hi nb dfed,
It's all about power and control. A big complaint I used to have was that you never heard about good accomplishments in the same way you heard about peoples misfortunes or change of status ie: Removed or deleted as Elder, MS, or pioneer. DFed or DAed. Sister so-in-so's Hubby cheated on her, or visa-versa. Nobody spread the word that so-in-so was back on the pioneer list or so-in-so is a MS or Elder. Bad news always was the first to spread. The WTS has the dubs trained to jump at the first chance to turn someone in for a mistake. Everyone seemed to just love DIRT!
My wife Tinkerbell4125 and I went through a similar deal. None of the Elders or friends came to visit or call us until one of Tinks Bro-in-laws saw a Xmas card at her sister's (Sister wasn't a JW), then they descended on us like the plague.
I'm sorry to hear what you went through. I wouldn't answer the phone anymore if you know it's from one of the Elders.
We have a neighbor who is a JW. Her husband isn't a JW. When she found out by talking with my wife we were DAed, she called up my father (at the time was an Elder) and asked for the situation on us and what to do. She then had an Elder from her Hall call us with the same deal as the Elder who called you. Long story short, she was told that because we didn't write a letter to DA ourselves and the Congregation Elders made the choice to announce our DAing, as if we did write a letter, than "technically" in his mind, we weren't DAed. So she tried to become friends with Tink. That lasted about 5 minutes. Tink politely told her we were never going back to the WTS, period. That solved that. She hasn't bothered us since.
Wish you the best with your situation.

Hi Ozzie!
I wasn't late usually. If I did run late, I tried not to disturb the others so I tried getting a seat near the back. I have however used #5 and blended into #6 once when the CO was visiting and I was late.
