according to the august 2011 watchtower magazine:.
memorial partakers.
this is the number of baptized individuals who partake of the emblems at the memorial worldwide.
I've always thought the 'annointed' are delusional. JWs tend to have a leaning toward 'mental illness' (the amount I know who are on 'medication'...sheesh)...so I believe it's just another area of mental illness.
On the 'entertaining' side - there are members of the annointed who haven't been born yet, lol.
i've always liked tatoos and disagreed with the wt's stand on them.
i just turned 42 on may 14 and think its about time i get one.
nothing drastic, just a small lilly flower on my left shoulder.
You've obviously thought about it - you know what you want - so why not go for it (IF you're really sure) ? 42 is the new 30, lol.
nearly a year ago my uncle was diagnosed with prostate cancer - he initially thought it was just a bladder infection and it took him passing out to go have more serious tests.
thus he received this news and shared it with us, his family.. the family rallied behind him and we all did everything we could to get him to his treatments, make sure he ate properly and supported him.
my cousins came out from the uk when it looked like he was going to die in a couple of days.
So sorry LouBelle - 55 is no age. I hope he's 'comfortable'.
bang out of order seems to have made a couple of posters laugh on here, as they had never heard it before.. it's wierd for me because it's a saying i have always heard/used...good old british slang.. it means that what someone has said is hurtful and unacceptable.. some slang terms from where i come from in the ''black country''.. up the wooden hills - go to bed.
put the wood in the hole - shut the door.
chuffed - pleased.
Iconoclast - I had to force my hubby to eat veggies when I married him because he was convinced that the only way you cook veggies is to boil the hell outta them and he woudn't eat em
Are you suggesting that when cooking Christmas dinner, we put the sprouts on to boil around mid-October? lol

Me too Watersprout - I'm guilty of saying knackered (or cream-crackered) and arse. Nob-head? Dickhead? T*at?..anyone..? lol

I'm local to both Birmingham and the Black Country (I have some difficulty understanding the dialect, lol). I felt compelled to post this picture, a Black Country pub which has 'subsided' due to mining industry - you feel Brahms before even having a drink, lol (Brahms = Brahms and Liszt = p*ssed)

--the name of a real live (not dead) member of the faithful and discreet slave class- someone who has admitted in public they are one of the f&ds and who can verify they have been providing the "meat in due season" for the governing body.
obviously the gb can't be the f&ds, because they are neither discreet nor do they have a position of servitude- no, they have made it plain they are the bosses over jws and jws have to obey their words, as if jehovah and jesus were speaking them, or else they will get the disfellowshiped.
just one verifiable name will do and how you obtained it.. the governing body claims that the f&ds are directing them and the worldwide work of jws, but they have never proven that they have a f&ds class they communicate with- just have one of the annointed call bethel and ask to speak to one of the gb and see what the switchboard operator does with their call.
I've PMd you Moshe (twice, sorry, just thought of a PS, lol) - hope that's ok :)

i do not know how the blogger who posted this infamous wt cover (5/15/84) got all the names of those who posed for this magazine cover, or whether the names are even correct, but if he got it right, man, what a provocative statement.. .
So anyone with their bluetooth device turned on would automatically receive the image? Your bluetooth would search for other activated bluetooths and send the pic to whichever device is turned on?
No, the recipient would have to accept it, but MY thinking is that they would most likely accept it as it could only have been sent from within the Kingdom Hall because of the range. So, they wouldn't be suspicious of who it came from, a fellow JW (but they'd know a flier would have come from an outsider). So far better chance of successfully delivering info.

Also, although you'd pick up active Bluetooth phones, you wouldn't know who they were (unless you happen to know that Sister X has named her phone 'Sister Whiplash') but you will be able to see how many phones you've sent image to.

You would still need individual cell phone numbers to send it, though, right?
No, that's the beauty of it. When the Bluetooth on your phone is turned on, it will search for other Bluetooth devices. What usually happens is you'll pick up different phones, eg 'Nokia3600' or 'Samsung10' (i've made those up, lol). Or sometimes, 'Sexy Sue' (people sometimes 'name' their phones - I've called mine 'MidwichCuckoo', so that name would be visble for anyone searching for a Bluetooth device within range of my phone - but they wouldn't know it's ''me''). Am I making sense?
