Its really hot inside, and everyone there is all ooohing and aaahing at printing presses like they were magical gifts from Jehovah. Then you follow the white lines and see the young Witnesses smiling because they are cleaning elevators, then you go in the basement where you actually see TVs and how their Kitchen is the cleanest in the whole NYC. The Health Inspectors always leave early.. then you see even more happy people wandering around oohing and aahing at the rooms and how cute they look, and the fun things they get to do. Then you ooh and aah more at the people from the different countries working there in the hot conditions and how quick they can make boxes because Jehovah made them skilled in that field. Then you ooh and aah over how the Watchtower is translated into more languages than Time Magazine. Thats basically it.

I don't think I'm going to watch it, but i've heard that some people didn't like it because it showed them cheating on their wives with each other, and they just left it at that.

The Watchtower Study: The one way to make your views publicly known
by sir82 inas most of us here are aware, the watchtower "study" weekly meeting is no "study" at all.
paragraphs are read, pre-arranged questions are asked, and the "correct" answer is a slight re-wording of the sentences in the paragraph.. however, sometimes (many times?
depending on the congregation), members could use the study as a way to publicly air their opinions on a variety of topics, without fear of interruption (so long as the answer was couched in enough "theocratese").

Similar thing happened.
Brother complains that JW teens shouldn't drive sports car because your whole life has to represent Jehovah, and if a police stops a sports car, they won't initially think they are one of JWs.
Plus of course 2 JW teens have sportscar with the loud mufflers, and everyone hears this when they leave.

Talking about a person, at their funeral, "how taboo!"
by free2beme ini went to a funeral yesterday and they did something you never saw at a witness memorial, and it is so refreshing to me when this is done.
well they actually mentioned the person who died.
they talked about their life, their family and even some fun stories about what they did in this life.

Ya whats up with that, at my Grandma's funeral which had a lot of people who weren't JW, it was as if the speaker made it feel like everyone should feel bad because they didn't dedicate their lives to Jehovah, so you should do it now for everlasting life.

Well like they said its just your ONLY DIARY, where you can talk about the HOTTEST TRENDS, THE HOTTEST CELEBRITIES, and How emo you look.
The majority of blogs, are done by teenage girls, who say such bad things about their friends and online friends that they have to make theirs "Friends only" to read. Which i hate, because I rather you just say something outward and bold instead of being private but ohwell.
The blogs done by guys are usually lacking. Based on how emo and popular you are, it can be similar to teenage girls journals with the same basic principles.
The More popular blogs are political and tech commentary, and news programs like CNN will often go to those sites for ideas and news. These sites are very important because they are often truthfull of how a company should run itself.
Myspace is What I'd call Advertising Yourself. The great thing about it is that it filters out some popular people who tend to be afraid to use their real picture but are popular on other journal sites by the communities they run.
Myspace is basically a site about yourself, where you typically write about why people should be interested in meeting you. OR why people should meet you but your too high up in your virtual celebrity status that you just want the attention.
So even though blogs are the IN thing these days, just watch out for the concieted types, and they are everywhere.I have One entertainment/tech blog, a Cartoon blog, and a myspace.
