I think most of us are happier for being out of the wtbts. Making friends takes a while. You can't stay at home and be a hermit. Get out in the community, do interesting things, meet people. I started making new friends where I live when I got involved in the community garden, for instance.

Good Netflix shows to watch
by Simon inin the long winter nights you need some good tv shows to watch while you wait for the eternity between seasons of game of thrones.. we've watched marco polo (pretty good) and have just started watching orange is the new black which is not at all what i imagined (didn't know it was funny!).
house of cards is on the list too as we've heard good things about that.. anyone have any others that are worth seeing?.

Troll Hunter is hilarious, there's another one that I think is called something like Rare Export that is a very similar sort of funny. Similar sense of humor -- though a different kind of story -- to Lars and the Real Girl. -

Experience in a talk
by Da.Furious inlast week we had an elder giving a talk, cant remember the title.. the thing that was of interest is the experience he gave:.
"a brother who was working in a hospital had to leave his job which was paying him good money because the nurses wanted to sleep with him and they kept putting notes for him on his desk!".
this is not the first time i hear similar experience.

Well . . . Once I got out of the wtbts and into the real world, I found out that a surprising number of JW men were dating "worldly" women at the massage school I attended. Married JW men. I was in a different circuit, so these men didn't know I was a JW. So interesting to hear these stories.
I personally think that if a person is going to screw around, being a JW is no impediment.

Alaska State Troopers
There's also one about Navajo Police
Reruns of Dr. Who, Torchwood
All the British detective/cop/crime shows are good
Oh goodness, I'm seeing a pattern here . . .

How to Hear God's Voice Easily and Effectively: A Book Review
by Hortensia inhttp://smile.amazon.com/hear-gods-voice-easily-effectively-ebook/dp/b00nplbit8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=utf8&qid=1420441456&sr=8-2&keywords=how+to+hear+god%27s+voice.
i think perhaps this book doesn't really examine the issue in depth.
for instance, my niece suggests that the first necessary step to hearing god's voice is to skip your meds.. i'm sure we could all come up with better ways than the namby-pamby stuff recommended in this book that would enable anyone to hear god's voice.. a very tight necktie, for instance.. playing modern christian music backwards, while drinking mogen david.. instead of skipping your meds, in some cases it works better to double your meds.. wear a tin-foil pyramid hat.

Terry, Stan, you all nailed it -- low-effort cop-out that makes them feel good about themselves. I wonder if they then ACTUALLY go get on their knees and specifically mention you in prayer?
