  this topic has been discussed before but it is interesting to look at it in the light of the new book god's kingdom rules.. 1903 news paper sermons.

  1914 photo drama of creation.

  1922 radio.

  They tried broadcasting some PA's in the 90's in some select markets. They were very "Mormon-esque" looking. They decided at the time they did not want to invest the $$$$ it would take to launch and keep up a full scale marketing campaign.

  I do remember the full page ad in the Wall Street Journal.

  the ref came over grab my gloves and looked me in the eyes and asked me "are you ok, can you continue" and then gave me the standing 8 count.

  no it didn't knock me out but it staggered me.

  I had this discussion with my brother (a COBE/PO), when we had our last BIG talk. I was discussing the inconsistency of WTBS use of verse to create their own life and death rules/laws. I told him if the society said "we don't want tobacco users/smokers in our religion" I would understand and respect that. But I have an issue when they apply Bible verse to condemn one thing as wrong and ignore many other things that can be considered unclean or a defiling the body, (or whatever term du jour they lift from a Bible verse). I told him if they wanted to go down that road, then the Mornons are more faithful to the principle than the JW's.

  I asked a JW friend if the were going to have a party celebrating the 100 year anniversary...after all, making it to 100 years for anything, even invisibly, is quite an accomplishment!

  He gave me the finger.

  One of the greatest gifts from the good ol' USA is the gift of America's popluar songbook. All those amazing writers for the last century writing words and music sung by myraids of artists yesterday, today and forever. I just watched a Linda Ronstadt interview on AXS and that is what she said...and I believe she is right. I adore tha American pop songbook.

  Well done Gerry and thank you for all the music. RIP.
