i was in nassau sitting on the beach, sipping a 151 pina colada, watching the jet-ski guy, all toned and tanned.
i remember thinking, he's got the coolest job in the world ... sittting on the beach all day, renting & teaching drunk & horny tourists how to ride them.
that's my fantasy .... i wanna be the jet-ski guy.

Did any of you all know the Johnsons or the Arnetts any people from Shelbyville or Harradsburg???
i was wondering if anybody feels like i do that if i hadn't been raised a jw i would never have embraced the religion.
i know it's easier to say in hindsight after i know the truth about the org but honestly i don't think i would have given them the time of day.
i'm not a religious person or even a spiritual person and being a jw always caused a conflict in my mind.
thx Sparky!!!!
how about leaving on your own terms!!!!
you go to the sunday meeting or theo school and service meeting... and when there is an opportunity to comment.. you raise your hand.. and the diligent brother [servant wanna a be] brings over the microphone and you say.. " i just wanted to make it clear that i "...." no longer want to be identified as one of jehovah's witnesses's connected with the watchtower tower society, and then you get up, click your heels, give everyone a farewell salute..... and leave the building singing some neil young tune...... :) has anyone done that?
should we start doing that?
WOW Little Toe rocks!!!!!! I like the idea, make people think about the religion and not "what did they do????" or "who did they do????"
the other day i had an experience that made me want to seek out more information about the jehovah?s witnesses, and this forum was one of the first things i found on the internet.
i apologize, in advance, if this is not the proper place for this:.
i am posting this as a plea to the jehovah?s witnesses to please stop harassing the general public.
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you go Joe!!!!!!!! get um!!!!!!! you are in the right place thats a fact (for dogging them)! Try the Columbia Heights neighborhood in NY

I never would have been one. I only have faith in what my two hands can do and nothing further. They ask you to put your whole life in the hands of a god that shows no apparent intrest in mankind and I just can't do that. Its sad you are forced into a lifestyle before you even have a life of your own.
