Have you ever had an encounter with a UFO?
by free2beme inwhen i was about 16 years old, a group of us friends would go hiking a lot on the weekend.
we would rough it to some degree, just a sleeping back and sleeping under the stars.
one night, while hiking into a lake in northern california, we all were sleeping in a clearing just out of legal distance from a small mountain lake we liked to fish in.

Memorial on full moon?
by Aphrodite intalked to jw mother in law about memorial, df'd hubby reckons it should be on full moon which was friday, but it was held on wednesday.
mother in law says "well as brother so&so pointed out to us, it is the full moon in the northern hemisphere, so we are only out by a few hours and anyone looking into the night sky would think its a full moon anyway.
so they are saying they are having the memorial on the northern hemispheres full moon, but they actually had it just after sundown here which was well before sundown up there so in fact they held the memorial on nisan 13. i just dont get it, is this normal, is it even true?

Apologia Contra Bonehead 'Awake' of May '06
by metatron inthe latest 'awake' carries the front page title of "how long can you live?
" - and , as you might expect, it offers the usual carefully.
crafted appearance of reason to defend the forgone conclusion of pessimism about extending human life span.

Advice anyone? On how men think and faithfulness.
by gabriella inthis may be kind of a long story but any input or advice would be really appreciated.. i have been married for three years to a really good guy.
he's my best friend and confidante.
not the most spontaneous person i have ever met (he says it is because he is very comfortable in the relationship).

Do you let your dub relatives watch your kids?
by avishai inthis was mentioned on another topic but it needs it's own thread.
ok, i'm gonna say it again.
if your relatives will not speak to you.... do not let them have any contact with your children, period.

Recording Judicial Committee meetings........and having fun!
by nicolaou inthe 'flock' book (elders manual) makes this quite clear and upon arriving at your judicial hearing one of the first questions you will be asked is whether you have any recording/transmitting equipment with you.. however, most jw's will have never seen - or even heard of - the 'flock' book.
do a search on the wt cd on recording meetings and you will see that it all pertains to the recording of meetings at the kingdom hall and conventions and that any brother wishing to make such recordings is free to do so so long as the recording equipment is not attached to the society's equipment.
the one question of propriety that is raised has to do with recording prayers.
