  The last time I seen Ray Franz was in his Bethel room in 1980. 27 years later he is looking pretty good considering what he has gone through plus the usual aging process. Thanks for posting.

  As I was reading this thread it occurred to me, I aint sure when exactly I got baptized. Was early 70's, somewhere between 70 and 72. Was at a district convention and the pool was actually at someones house. Do not recall any real pressure to get baptized, then again do not recall much about the event so who knows... null and void at this point....

  Detatchable Penis, by King Missile
  I woke up this morning with a bad hangover
  And my penis was missing again.
  This happens all the time.
  It's detachable.

  [ background singing begins:
  "detachable penis" over and over ]

  This comes in handy a lot of the time.
  I can leave it home, when I think
  it's gonna get me in trouble,
  or I can rent it out, when I don't need it.
  But now and then I go to a party, get drunk,
  and the next morning I can't for the life of me
  remember what I did with it.
  First I looked around my apartment, and I couldn't find it.
  So I called up the place where the party was,
  they hadn't seen it either.
  I asked them to check the medicine cabinet
  'cause for some reason I leave it there sometimes
  But not this time.
  So I told them if it pops up to let me know.
  I called a few people who were at the party,
  but they were no help either.
  I was starting to get desperate.
  I really don't like being without my penis for too long.
  It makes me feel like less of a man,
  and I really hate having to sit down
  every time I take a leak.
  After a few hours of searching the house,
  and calling everyone I could think of,
  I was starting to get very depressed,
  so I went to the Kiev, and ate breakfast.
  Then, as I walked down Second Avenue
  towards St. Mark's Place,
  where all those people sell used books
  and other junk on the street,
  I saw my penis lying on a blanket
  next to a broken toaster oven.
  Some guy was selling it.
  I had to buy it off him.
  He wanted twenty-two bucks, but I
  talked him down to seventeen.
  I took it home, washed it off,
  and put it back on. I was happy again. Complete.
  People sometimes tell me I should get
  it permanently attached,
  but I don't know.
  Even though sometimes it's a pain in the ass,
  I like having a detachable penis.

  ...It was Monday night and I was missing the Family WT Study.

  I just knew Jehovah was frownin' too. LOL!...

  I remember the time a friend of mind wanted to see a questionable movie that was playing at the theater near bethel. He figured it be safe to go on a Monday while everyone is at the Family WT study. Goes to buy the ticket. The person selling the ticket can tell he is a Bethelite, we had that "look", and says, "sure is a lot of you guys here tonite". Walks in the movie theater and its wall-to-wall Bethelites. Was so funny....like minds...

  Did You Know Many Dumb Elders?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i did.. there were some pretty sharp guys but there were a lot of not so bright ones.

  the worst elders were the ones that thought they were very intelligent but really were stupid.. one elder that fits that description was a man that loved to speculate on prophecies, watchtower wording, someone's facial expressions or mannerisms.

  he truly believed he was more enlightened than anyone else.

  More than I care to think about. My first work day at Bethel. A group of us go to our assigned floor. We get introduced to the floor overseer and get our assignments. Everyone goes off except for me, who needs a chat. So the floor overseer asks if I have read the latest magazine. I say yes, which isn't entirely accurate and wonder where is conversation is going to. He asks if I happen to notice a picture within this certain article. Yeah, I say. At least I look at the pictures in the magazines.... So the picture is a scientist, white scientist, in the usual lab coat at a black board trying to make a point about evolution or something like that. The scientist has a moustache. So do I.

  In this elders mind, if you are white and have a moustache you believe in evolution. My first thought was, I think I made a bad choice in coming here and four years to go. I could not believe what I had just heard. Over my time there I had seen and heard other brilliant examples like that.

  If this had been the application back when I went to Bethel, not to sure if I would had made it, evil music and the occasional R-rated movie. Not to mention quite a few guys I worked with would not have been there.

  I have no idea if the military has an "application" per se, but if they do, would be interesting to see what their questions are (especially emotional/psychology questions). Both are institutional driven life-styles.

  When I was at Bethel, latter 70's, I worked with a number of guys who had college degrees. Three that come to mind, one taught grade school, other was an architect, and one guy, had his BS in mathmatics, which he had at the age of 18 (yeah, genius level). All three of these guys worked in my dept. All three got transfered to really good jobs (I mean really good jobs) at Bethel due to their college degrees.

  An observation that was not lost on anyone on the floor I worked on. And a reason why a good number of guys who I knew that left, headed straight for college after Bethel, including myself. I am so glad I did.

  BETHELITES - Whatever Became of?

  by Black Man in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i often times wonder what happened to certain bethelites that i ran around with during my 1990s tenure there.

  while there are still a few left there, the greater majority of them aren't there for various reasons (marriage, disillusionment, left the borg, etc).

  a couple of cats i wonder about - there was one brother who i believe was from kansas, who got his fingers cut off in a printing press.
