Jeff, sounds like you had a great time. I'm still looking forward to meeting folks here.
Any pictures of the two families?
we were on our way to the colts game in indianapolis sunday and we had been able to arrange a little stopover at their home.. what a pleasure to meet the entire family.
we had a great time, but sadly it only lasted an hour or so, before we had to trek on down to the rca dome and get to our seats.. a nice time was had by wifey and i. i hope we get to spend time together again.
it was a great new years eve present.

guess what--!
i clicked the phrase 'jehovahs witness' at the top of the jwd page, right next to 'ads by google,' and found a bunch of ex-jw meet-up groups.
one of them, locally, that i checked into had the name and face of a df'd-then-ri'd-then-df'd-again son of a jw friend of mine.
The WTS tells the rank and file that ex-JWs can be identified by a certain feature:
Thanks Blondie, horny women are my favorite!
hi everybody and happy new year.
2007 is the year i turn 40, in fact in exactly one month's time to be precise.. i've noted that a lot of people on jwd are a similar age to me.
i think it's because it takes us this long to pluck up the courage to finally leave the borg.. i need to know how turning 40 makes you feel.
48 next month, turning 40 wasn't so bad. approaching 50, well that's another story. I'll tell you what, the day I get something in the mail from AARP won't be a thrill. I'll rip that up so fast...
yes, i post so much.
i spend so much time here.
i need to walk away for a few days.. i will not be reading your posts and commenting.

Hey Outlaw!
I just ran into your Sunday on the Ferry heading to Victoria. we had a chance to talk about you and Sunday did mention "white stuff " all around but said it was inside your home on a table neatly lined up with a razor blade and straw near by, HA! just kidding..
I turned Sunday around and pointed it toward Stanley Park. you can look for it there, or wait until it promises to return in roughly 5 days..
Happy New Year to you, Blower of Snow!! ( notice I didn't says snorter )
i decided to surprise visit my brother (we used to be extremely close) on nyeve.
i brought a present for his kids which they were excited about.
i stood at the door a little uncomfortable for a few minutes and then i said,"dude, i just drove all the way up here on my motorcycle in the cold, aren't you going to ask me in?
Hi Shawn, fellow Californian here,
I read your story and was happy and sad at the same time. I get similiar treatment and I'm just inactive, bad association thing. all I ever hear is, you shouldn't join something if you are not going to adhere to its rules, to which i reply, "so if I was part of the KKK or the Hitler youth or I was a Catholic or Mormon, I shouldn't leave if I felt it was wrong?"
It's funny, the kids treated you well but the loving adults wouldn't or at least the fear was there from you Brother. your DF'ed yet YOU did the loving Christian thing by seeing your family, your blood.
Keep us posted, hopefully, slowly the wall will start to crumble.

i was just thinking today about the old days going door to door and street work and i have some very fond memories of those days.
coolhand and i used to go in street work everyday together when we were pioneering.
i used to be my happiest when i was in the preaching work.
Just as long as it comes with a "Miss Field Service" Calendar
*shudder* if I can rephrase, Just as long as it's not filled with the faithful skirts below the knees, scuffed shoes, torn nylons from my old hall! not pretty..
Miss Street work, forget it.
Miss I shut down my reproductive organs for after Armageddon, pass..
Sorry, off topic, I hated it, I hated it, I hated it!
i discovered this site only this morning, and have been reading for about 3 hours now.
very interesting.this is my first post, and i have a question, however, if this is the wrong forum please let me know or please move this post to the correct location.
thanks.. i'll try to keep this preface short.
Welcome Steve!
Speaking from experience, I faded many years ago and if they wanted to I could be DF'ed for all sorts of things. my family is spread out all over Cali so if they wanted to, they could form the witch hunt. my take is I'm of little interest anymore, they probably have enough on their hands making their own Congo feel uncomfortable and sorting thru those with a free will who decide to ask questions they cannot answer.
I was swept under the rug, so were you most likely.
hi everyone, happy new year!
has anyone out there made a new year's resolution this year?
mine is to loose wieght and get into better shape.
Happy New Year to you too Lovelylil!
Yeah I've made my list, much shorter than previous years but mine is to eat healthier ( I actually realized I enjoy most healthy foods anyway) and to walk more, easier to accomplish for me.
The best of luck on yours, I hope your more sucessful than I have been with exercise equiptment. It seems the only workout I get from them is putting them together and dusting them off every week!

i started the year out with him being in the hospital with a gi bleed and heart attack.
looks like we're ending it the same way.
i'm wore out.
MsMcducket,
I am so sorry to hear about your husbands health. I hope he recovers soon.To" honor thy Mother", shouldn't have conditions especially during important family matters like illnesses. like your Husband, I hope you recover from this soon to.
Your kind,caring and thoughtful and it's obvious you have a good heart. If your twins believe they have those same qualities, I hope they never forget where the got them from.
