  The Man With the Big Nose

  by TMS in

  no offense intended for the anointed ones on this board, but ive always compared such professed ones to martin jensen, who professed nothing for himself except that he wasnt good for much.. this iowa corn farmer became a jw in the 40s, was promptly divorced by his wife, and moved to the southern tip of texas, the end of the world.

  by default he became the presiding overseer of the english unit, although he never gave a public talk.

  there were many unsuccessful attempts over the years to replace him with a more suitable shepherd.

  JW's And Risque Mnemonics.

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do folk in the united states use mnemonics as we do here in the uk?.

  just in case youre wondering, a mnemonic is a method by which it becomes easy to remember something, especially if it involves a table or sequence.

  most uk mnemonics have a vulgar or sexual connotation, so their use is somewhat frowned upon in jw circles.. when number 2 son was studying geology, it was essential that he remembered the hardness order of various minerals.

  i didnt want to write my story.

  i wanted to close the door on a difficult part of my life and move on.

  there are many things that are best left in the past because they are too painful to recall.

  adoption by jehovah's witnesses is blocked .

  the independent - united kingdom; may 26, 2001. by brian farmer.

  i've been lurking on this forum and previously on the old h20 for a long time now.

  and have probably read every word that's appeared on randy's site too.

  finally decided it was rude to enjoy all your insights without at least introducing myself :).
