  I check a dozen or more times a day. It's a great way to keep in touch with friends and family, and see what everybody is doing.

  Amazing how I can remember every word of these songs, and not what I did yesterday.

  much happiness and joy to have grown up with the Beatles. I'm always interested in the creative process, prob because I was never allowed to explore that part of my brain. Amazing how prolific and how quickly they could write those songs, and how good they were.

  "Back from where?"

  "I'm right here"

  For somebody you want to be tender (like a nice mom) with, "maybe soon." "not just yet."

  the old nwt used the name jehovah 7207 times and the new nwt uses it 7213 times.. has anyone worked out where the extra jehovahs appear in the text?

  who wants to play where's wally, i mean where's jehovah?

  however there's an even bigger jump in jesuses: 940 up from 918.. satan is exactly the same at 54..

  I was thinking today that anybody not using the new bible can be now easily identified. I can't help but think that is part of the thinking.

  Beginning of Electronic Assemblies?

  by Fading Begins in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  do you think this could have been an experiment to see how smoothly these events can be processed, and what the reaction is from the rank and file?

  it would sure save a lot of money if events like this could replace at least the one day circuit assemblies.

  there has to be some recognition that the "flock" is becoming weary and they don't have the funds to be travelling to these events.

  i see that as a very possible way to simplify the whole DC process. Taped messages from the GB and bethel speakers could be intermixed with local needs. Can be held in local assembly halls and bypass the big DC venue hassle.
