  I always felt they should provide housing for those older ones that have "volunteered" for decades, and now have nothing.

  I was looking for the "Drunken Gibberish" thread too. Seems it's gone. I feel some of my best work can be found on that thread. Damn.

  Will firing the DOs be the first step to a new Watchtower?

  by Juan Viejo2 in

  against my better judgement, i've decided to share the following as a response to guy pierce passing and the announcement of the elimination of district overseers later this year.. late in january (2014) i got an email from one of my contacts (a fader) who served at bethel for several years, but is no longer at wt hq.

  he still has a lot of close contacts within the service department and in other departments at patterson and knows people in all of the ny offices.

  i kept this email set aside on a flash drive and haven't shared it with anyone - figuring i'd publish an article about it later this year when i had more time to do it right.

  I knew Angelo pretty well. Great public speaker. Liked to drink wine and cheat at golf..LOL. He could be tough, but had a good sense of humor. When he got old, kind of grew his hair out. Looked like an orchestra conductor.

  Most tattoo owners say the tattoos are very personal. I think, for the most part, they should keep them that way.

  do the jw's still teach that those resurrected will not marry and be without a sex?
