I got a non-response response from the KoP:
"Regarding J. F. Rutherford, the records I have regarding past members of Golden Gate #91 (Boonville, MO) only go back to the 1950's - those that go further back are currently in a storage facility in west-central Missouri and I do not have immediate access to them. I will be at that facility in mid-April and will have your request with me - should I find that there was a member named Joseph Franklin Rutherford during that period, I will inform you as to what I found. Sorry I cannot be of more help, thank you."
We will have to wait until April for that then. I am still waiting for the Boonville Advertiser newspaper clippings I ordered.

Just finished Brokeback Mountain. I would have never watched it as a JW, and even if I had watched it as a JW, I would have had vastly different reactions to it.
As a JW, I would have probably stopped the movie half-way.
As an exJW, liberal, atheist, I see the story for what it is: a very sad love story in which two people who love each other can't be together, mainly because of the society in which they live in.
I saw a 2006 movie, so next up is "No Country for Old Men" -

Hi Sanchy,
It's a bit of a complicated answer.
Watchtowers and Awakes I have access to them 100% past 1960. Before 1960 it's hit and miss, but soon will have all up to 1950 (people are scanning them).
Books, pretty much anything except for a facsimile of the only Studies in The Scriptures in Spanish which was The Divine Plan of the Ages, which I can find but only the text. The few copies available sell for around $500 US.
It would be nice to get pre-1950 Awakes and Watchtowers in Spanish, but I can't find them anywhere online, not even for sale. -

Soon to be in a Watchtower:
The Watchtower predicted, way back in 1879, that the last U.S. president before Armageddon, would be Trump.
In the July 1879 Watchtower, this appeared: "The Last [U.S. President will be] Trump".
Considering how they change their history and how they need to have a "hit" with their failed prophecies... I can see that... -

Just finished watching Passion of the Christ.
Watching as an atheist made it kinda interesting. The story, fake or not, is compelling. It's a nice story and maybe that's why it has become universal...
Although I kinda felt sad for Jesus because he was obviously delusional and that led to his death... so... yeah.
Next up is Brokeback Mountain, 2005.
