I have it "Duck" taped to the table so the kittens can't pull it off.

has anyone read the book "outrage" by vincent bugliosi?
i read it in the late 1990's and it was one of the best books i have ever read.. bugliosi is probably the best living attorney in the usa and his book just trashes the prosecution and "dream team" (hahhahaha) and judge lance ito in this book.
he proves in his famous and celebrated logical way beyond any shadow of a doubt that o.j.
Thanks for the recommendation. Our library is open on Sunday afternoons and I'm heading there now to get Excel books and something to read for enjoyment.

does anyone have a link or know the winter convention/assembly dates?
around here they usually try to make them on christmas day, or so it seems to me.
christmas falls on a sunday so i'm just wondering what i'm in for this year.
Hey Carla,
As Blondie said, your JW attends the assembly hall where every weekend, I believe except for one (for major cleaning/repairs), has circuit assemblies and special one day assemblies. He could choose a different circuit's meetings. I don't remember it as a HUGE sin unless he is a servant.... then they would frown on that decision.

i must share my recent experience .
i was raised a witness until i left 6 yrs ago at 44 .
i had lots of good aquantances ,but not one close to my bosom best friend .
My present friends appreciate me for who I am. We agree to disagree and we respect each others' opinions. We stay in contact by phone even though we are busy and we MAKE time to get together. I've learned that a true friend will have your back, but also will be honest with you. I like that.
I had many Witness friends, but those friendships were conditional. I never felt comfortable being the REAL me around them. Some were more "lenient" with their judgments, but I always felt "on guard" w/what I said or did for the most part. Then I got to the stage where I didn't care anymore - that tends to weed biased people out. There are those whom I still feel a bond with because of what we went through together and they are just good people.
I believe there are good and bad people in the organization and out. One has to choose their friends carefully. I have many aquaintances, but few very good friends anymore.
i would appreciate your advice, suggestions, and brand recommendations.
thank you.. juni.

i was talking to my daughter yesterday about the wt and the wwc case in victoria and i explained this to her..... for well over a hundred years the wt/ jws have been declaring the fds to be a real tangible person/s.
a body of christians, the remaining ones of the 144,000...etc etc.
(we all know the story).
I've been out for 20 years now... hard to believe! Anyway, I remember we were taught that the F&D slave class were those ALIVE on the earth - some directly participating in the "feeding work" at headquarters and others not, but they did support those who did. They ALL are part of the 144,000. They are ALL of the heavenly class.
put a ping pong ball in the bathtub tonight - dweezil is playing a game of single's racquet ball while his sister is watching and getting warmed up to play too.
at times he gets it between his paws and he falls on it and holds it tight to his body (great football maneuver guy) and then bats it again.
they've been playing for an hour and now it's a game of double's.
