  the thread on the wt going into the red, and the remark on "cheap paperback bibles" made me think of the old green nwt.. there was a lot of buzz back then about why it was green.

  i heard these from various cos -.

  a) it was green to prove that it was not from christendom.

  That's precious! LOL You've gotta be of a certain "generation" to get the humor.
  
  I wonder how the tote bag would go over at a District Assembly...

  i am in receipt of a fresh pheasant, a gift from a local hunter who shot about 20 of them on tuesday.

  he/she now resides in my freezer.

  de-feathered, de-headed, and de-gutted, i am assured.

  searching4truth, just like chicken? Now that sounds easy!
  
  BrentR, I appreciate the head's up about shot left in it — never would have considered that.
  
  rolling rock, smoking is another great idea! Yum.
  
  Thanks for responding.

  Little Drummer Boy, the pheasant was a present, not a peasant.
  
  So pleasant to point it out.

  Thanks for responding, JeffT. Do you mean like braising it in a broth?

  I was a veggie-head for years; only did my 1st turkey back in September. 1st ham in December.
  
  Any ideas how to prepare a wild pheasant? My mainstay, epicurious.com, is slim on gamebirds.
  
  Thanks in advance,

  ***Do current bibles still have a marker for the Garden of Eden in the map section?***
  
  Yes, with a question mark. Garden of Eden (?)

  The black one was issued in 1981 or 1984. Why, I don't know.
  
  I still remember receiving my very own green bible, along with the Pepto-Bismol pink "Listening to the Great Teacher," around age 4 or 5.
  I felt so grown up! Sister M. would come over and we'd sit at a little child-size picnic table outside in the yard for our study.
  
  But The kewl thing about the green ones was the dinosaurs on the endpapers.
  
  Anyone remember the dinos?

  In the future, the Watchtower will simply bill your credit card a "Kingdom Publisher Donation" each month based on a "Kingdom Needs Estimate" that is announced at the District Convention. All will approve the Kingdom Estimate for the coming year, so no renewal notice will be sent. Pioneers will receive a small discount.

  In the future, publishers will be required to wear GPS units to assure their whereabouts at all times, under the guise of confirming actual time spent in field service.

  In the future, all "gatherings" must be scheduled and cleared with the PO, and have no more than 10 participants present, 2 of which must be elders.
