We had quite a few windows in the KH. They were practically at the ceiling so no-one could day dream out of them. Luckily there was a significant window cleaning contingent that took turns to look after them.

i was looking at some pics of khs and i remembered something i'd noticed while dusting my feet off outside a jw hall - very few windows.
is that a policy or was i just at the back of the building...?

well, after being shunned by my realtions for the last few years, except for parents and sister i've decided that i will no longer play by the rules of the jw cult game.
i have had contact with several cousins, obviously too gob smacked by my cheek to shun in any way shape or form and have began wriggling my way into their awareness again.
i intend to be like a kill and destroy white blood cell that gradually wreaks havoc with their jw cells and destroys...repeat destroys all that jw crap that is in them.
Gill! You're some gal!!!! More power to you!

i recently had a birthday and can't believe i'm 33 now.
my dad is having a birthday soon and he'll be sixty.
i just read about some more celebrity birthdays coming up and it just doesn't seem right that these people are as old as they are:.

when my husband was convinced to be baptized back in '74, the jw who studied with my husband went with him to meet with the elders.
when the elder asked for my husband's birthday for his records, he said nov 12 and the jw says "not my birthday, he wants yours".
my husband says, "it is mine".
Mine has a musical theme! Brett Michaels, Quincey Jones, Dee Snider and Terence Trent D'Arby.

i've taken a leaf from holly's book to thank your for having me on the forum - thirteen interesting days but came to realise one cannot achieve much speaking from behind a screen.
people do not know who you really are, nor do you they.
i read many of holly's posts but few others.
Well, I'm trying to look for a positive here - Dost's words certainly re-inforce in my mind how mind numblingly crass these people are.
Interesting reference - ' ..and it's goodbye from him' - this is almost identical to a phrase used by a British comedy duo The Two Ronnies. A UK dweller perchance?
The best thing to do with these people is just to ignore them - they clearly adore the oxygen of publicity and attention.
I know I know - I've posted on this thread!!! lol

just thought some of you might be interested in the music website of a new rock and roll / blues band.. .
nothing new there you might think, but...all the band members are active (?
) witnesses, all supposedly "in good standing", and including at least two elders, an ms and a pio.
How's this for irony - one of their cover versions is 'All Along the Watchtower' !!!!!

Spreading thy apostate nonsense round the world. It is embarrassing - they will think all former Witnesses turn out like this!!!
What an unbelievably crass comment. I hope that you or your family never experience anything like what these people have suffered. The efforts made by Silent Lambs are incredible - remember these are people who give up their time and energy for the sake of others.
To make such a sneering comment is unbelievable, pathetic and defies logic.
Slim - what's this all about? Why all the 'attitude' all of a sudden? As attention seeking efforts go, this has to be one of the most puerile I've seen.

i love it!
the library card up for bid on ebay has 6 bids.
awesome.
How did anyone get their hands on this? I've just checked and it's been removed...

i want to repeat an idea i have been mulling over for some time.
i responded on another thread with this same idea.
on that thread someone wanted to send a newly df friend some comforting message, but was afraid of revealing herself and leaving herself open to possible dfing.
Tammy - this is a brilliant idea! This should go a long way to removing the fear factor for a lot of people and will surely do a lot of good.

has it ever happened to you, something so dispicable you would rather go to your grave, not having forgiven someone a wrong they had done you, hopeful that god would sort it out in the end?
mind you, i know things like child molestation, rape and murder are things for which it is difficult, if not impossible, to be forgiving of.
that being said, where does one draw the line on forgiveness?
This is something I tend to struggle with...I do forgive but I don't forget. I can quite easily nurse a grudge for as long as it takes, which is not something I'm particularly proud of.
It all depends on the perceived 'wrong' and who has committed it.
