So, When Did They Stop Singing?
by Atlantis inrutherford said:.
a few words like the above pronounced at the beginning of the study would be far more beneficial than to occupy the same time in singing songs, which often express much that is out of harmony with the truth of and concerning god's kingdom.watchtower/1938/may/1st/pg.139 .
back then, they had what was called: order of study, and this is what every overseer was instructed to say to the audience.. .

Punk - my mother was gaga over him per my older cousins. Gads this town -- one of the decent steakhouses has his ugly booth. At least 2 couples always play his horrible music if entertaining and will ask what music I like/listen to and before I can reply they ask, "Sinatra!" I have to be nice -- even a Sinatra station on the Sirius radio station - gag me! Only station they listen to. Even the wife who is my age is brainwashed.
Missed the Rolling Stones concert couple wks. ago here -- Jagger is pictured jumping. Hope he lives to return and jump. They're amazing.

We had a few who 'thought' they were gifted vocalists. Apparently, one was a voice instructor who left area and another couple others were professional. One was from a family of talented folk and another one told me she grew up singing as a child at Radio City -- she had strong voice and could harmonize to block out some of the noise. The entire family 'thought' they were professional level but chose to be JWs, etc., etc. Their father could have been one of the world's greatest musicians, of course. Surely it would have been recognized having been musician for decades!! Eric Clapton was proclaimed world's greatest acoustic (?) guitarist at like age 18, whatever. Unreal the JW power egos.
If I have to hear about Sinatra - between older friends (really old friends🤪) and JWs ever again I'll shoot myself! Ok - he had a decent voice range but he wasn't that unique. I won't even go to a restaurant called Sinatra (Encore/Wynn) and I love Italian food.

For New Ones!
by Atlantis inevery day someone somewhere is being disfellowshipped.
after the trauma of being cast out and shunned by relatives and friends, many exjw's start an investigation of the watchtower society.. they begin to collect every scrap of evidence they can get their hands on to prove they were lied to.. some of these archives may come in handy.
if you need something and it is not in an archive somewhere, send me a pm and i'll see if we can get it for you.

LH Gal - you are bullseye perfect. The elder pimps were always hitting me up for a lazy pioneer and her con-artist husband who had at least 5 degrees (pathological liar) who also lived off his mommy. The disadvantaged people in the cult were never helped and weren't in the in-crowd. It was 'splained the nucleus (the in-crowd gang) was the spiritual strength of the congregation - made me ill.
There were some very kind, decent, elders (from what I could tell) that did not do this and weren't in agreement to subsidizing these bums -- or so I heard.

Balaamsass2 - you and 3rd gen would be amazed at the green lawns in NV. We have snow-covered mountains - check out Mt. Charleston which is only about a 30-minute drive from LV. It's not going to look like Mammoth but the mountain ranges surrounding the valley are gorgeous but I love the desert - and the amazing blue ocean so I understand. I have withdrawals every time I leave it. Arizona is so beautiful - wish the saguaros thrived here like there - a few have.
I think LV is one of the more expensive cities to live now -- I only skimmed the headlines could be fake. Everything is trucked in so that might be part of the problem.

waton -- great link/thanks. The song is relaxing.🤣 and an oldie. Good ole Catalina Island.
I don't know what that fish is and took a wild guess.
Longboard -- sounds like you enjoyed the good life! I'd planned on being at beach full time by now but reckon not this season - bummer. The desert air/weather is incredible right now - fortunately.

waton -- orcas, eh? Thx for the correction and hopefully I won't forget.🤪 Guess I didn't learn much on all those catamaran trips!! I was so afraid of going on the ocean in such a small boat but once out a few miles from the shore -- the tranquility and sea life is amazing. People racing up and down Pacific Coast Hwy. have no idea what's a few miles from the road in the beautiful water.
