12 years ago today
by free2beme ini stood on that witness stage and got married.
the talk was long and boring, and meant to convert all of our non-witness relatives.
the music was pre picked to make sure it was clean enough for a witness gathering, and the drive to our honeymoon location was as fast as the car could go ... wonder why?

Sounds like you two have found the secret! Here's to many more anniversaries.
My wife and I married as good lil' JWs, ages 16 and 18, virgins. exited the org. after about 18 yrs. Now, after 41 years of marriage and 5 children we can vouch for your conclusions.
By the way, when do you leave for the Bahamas?

UB,
Doesn't everybody wipe their dishes with dirty underwear? That's funny! There is something about the Indian culture that does not include deodorants. I am sure they bathe often but in a warm, humid climate you start to exude that vegetable soup smell from the arm pits within an hour or so. My wife and I almost checked into what appeared to be a nice old hotel in London run by Indians or Paki's. Fortunately I asked to see the room first. By the time we got to the third floor, thanks to the smell of curry and armpits, we had made our decision.
Had a BibStud with a nice old Greek batchelor who had lived in his tidy little apartment for 30 years. He always provided refreshments, usually tea or coffee, grocery store cookies. Sometimes, Red wine with a plate of olives, sliced onions and cheese. The problem was he had a terrific case of excema or psoriasis or maybe it was just world class dandruff. He wore flannel shirts buttoned all the way up. His shoulders were covered with flakes of skin and gray hairs. Never could get into the snacks too much.

Assume the Position!
by yaddayadda injan 15 2006 watchtower, 2nd study article, last paragraph says:
"....likewise, satan will 'flee from us' in defeat if we are in full submission to jehovah and prayerfully rely on him.
(ephesians 6:18) with the support of jehovah god and his beloved son, nobody can do us permanent harm - no, not even internet apostates the devil!

Well, I've had Bible studies in some pretty nasty cribs, pretty much as those already described. One place I am sure had a dead animal (I hope it was an animal!) under the house. There's something about that smell that stays in your nostrils.
One that I have remembered was kind of unusual. My buddy Wayne and I were out in service in a run down tract house neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley, this was in the late 50's. We knocked on the door and this huge, bald guy answered. He was very nice and invited us in. We learned that his name was Tor Johnson. He was a pro wrestler and had been in a lot of cheesy horror movies (Plan 9 From Outer Space was one.) We pretty much let him tell us about what he did and he showed us some of his publicity pics. It really made an impression on me that he lived so modestly, I thought people in movies all lived in a mansion.

The wife of an elder ('anointed', to boot) was obsessed with this subject. When you talked to her you could almost see the tiny pinwheels spinning in her eyes. She made it her official job to get the word out that we must not buy anything used, clothes, furnishings, etc. because it could be possesed by demons. This made it kind of tough if you were raising kids on a janitors income.
Our Kingdom Hall was built on land donated by a elderly witness couple. They lived next door in beautiful old house. One day, when Sister Elder , (who lived in a trailer) was visiting Sister Elderly, she began to fix on the lovely, matching, ceramic lamps at each end of the sofa. She decided they didn't look right, in fact, as she looked at them she began to see a face in the abstract design! She explained to Sister Elderly what they had to do. Yep, they took those lamps out to the garage and beat then to death with hammers! When Brother Elderly got home he hit the roof. He remembered laying out $1200.00 for them when they were purchased many years before.
The kooky thing about this nutcase was that she went through a phase of being obsessed with the practice of diagnosing physical ailments by looking at the iris of the eyes. After the meeting she would have people in the back of the hall looking in their eyes with a penlight. Thank God she never saw any faces in somebodys eye!

Did you "cry" when the JW's elders Disfellowshipped or Disassociated you?
by booker-t inmy niece who is 19 and involved with a "married" man had to meet with her jw's elders last week.
she was terrified because the elders have told her time and time again to get rid of her "married" boyfriend but she refused.
she is head over heels in love with the guy.

I'm surprised at the number of posters who were emotional about their DF'ing. It makes me stop and remind myself that there are thousands of stories out there and I would be foolish to second guess how any of them reacted. Obviously, DannyH went through something (has he ever given detail?) that was very ugly. If acting out with the gun, etc. helped him then who am I to say him nay?
"There are a million stories in the Naked City...this is one of them"
or was it?...
"There are a million titties in the Naked Story....this is two of them"
