And a century later, this shit still sounds the same at assemblies. Same gestures and mannerisms, same abnormal speech inflections, same poor audio. I couldn't concentrate past one minute on it.

I would bring:
A pristine video copy of Michael Jackson's "Thriller'
Disney's "Fantasia" (featuring the evolution of dinosaurs)
A recording of Steppenwolf's "Magic Carpet Ride" b/w "Born to be Wild"
I would be wearing a goatee, with my hair cut in a "fade".
My wife (if I could convice her to come along) would wear either a "pantsuit" or a skirt that rose above her knees.
Anything else you would bring? -

What is the most out of line / disturbing experience you have seen from Circuit Overseers?
by Poindexter Lionel Humperdique ini once heard of a circuit overseer blaming a loyal ministerial servant, that served as the accounts servant, of steeling from the contribution boxes, simply because he deposited the congregation funds bi-weekly instead of twice a week.
due to the accusation, the ms was immediately removed without hearing his side of the story.
isn't this rather counter-intuitive and innefficient?

To paraphrase a quote from last year's political season in the US "None of these guys would be qualified to run a 7-11"

Yeah, my citation didn't format properly. I went back to edit it, the information is still there, but the display is all wrong after it is entered. But, JW facts has it right!

Okay, here are some key points:
Saul's lineage pretty much ended with Saul.None of his offspring succeeded him as King (they died with him in battle.)David did have a successor, but it was settled after a pretty bloody power struggle amongst his sons (the whole account reads like a Hebrew version of "The Godfather".)
Saul suffered from manic depression. David suffered from sexual addiction (ie; his conquest of Bathsheba). David was guilty of pretty despicable things (setting up Bath-Sheba's husband so that his death in battle was all but guaranteed isnt' very God-fearing to me).
Actually, why don't you just some up the King Arthur legend instead? Same plot, basically, complete with a Merlin figure (Samuel).
I saw a great documentary on PBS that posited that the Jews really didn't get a true "national identity" until after the Restoration from Babylon. Prior to that, they were a pretty puny group, and the great Kingdom of David and Solomon really didn't exist, except as a legend to keep the spirit of the Judeans up during captivity. They weren't even very monotheistic, and practiced idolatry to God and Mrs. God (little idols of male and female deities were found in pre-Captivity archaeological digs in the area, in household structures.) They really didn't become aggressively monotheistic Jews (capital J) until they got back from Babylon, and started to rebuild their national identity.I know this is not exactly what you wanted, but it may give you some ideas?
