The caption on the top of page 310 (in the chapter on "should I get baptized") speaks volumes about the obligation and implications youth take on when they get baptized as a JW.

Yeah, and funny that they listed Paul instead of Timothy.
Chapter 33 (Why Avoid Pornography?) shows what appears to be 3rd/4th graders all checking out pictures on their cell phone...
Any wagers on how many kids actually take the time to fill out all the journal entries?

The Douchiest Phone Message In History
by Elsewhere ini'm giving you until a 3:00 pm deadline to listen to this phone recording and post your thoughts on it.. http://www.holytaco.com/2008/06/27/the-douchiest-phone-message-in-history/.
in all my years of studying douchebaggery, never have i encountered anything like this.
its such pure and unadulterated douche that i wish i could bottle it and use just a drop of it at a time.. the back story on this is that a girl named olga was out with her friends in the marina district of san francisco (known for being a popular hang out for douches), and she talked to this guy named dmitri for all of two minutes.

I'd wait until 3:10 and call.....set up a lunch date and then stand him up.
Oooh, that's a little passive aggressive! We know how Dmitri feels about that!

You can make it searchable automatically if you have Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional -- the full version. It can do an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) of the scanned document.
Well, my flatbed scanner just died (I'm sure the Holy Spirit or Gabriel himself did it LOL) so I have to wait til the store opens at 9A to get a new one...

Well, I wouldn't know for two reasons, Carla... 1) I won't be there -- THEY went, not me! ; and 2) I haven't seen the YouTube version and can't fathom to put myself through it. Maybe some other JWD'er that does go to a convention this weekend can comment on the drama?

Family just got back. A couple of interesting things.
They have Teddy there. Jaracz is the visiting GB member. Maybe some enterprising JWD'er can get some good MP3 snippets from his ramblings. Anyway, the interesting part:
He was LATE TO THE STAGE FOR HIS TALK. Program was running on time, and of course they usually have a brother escort the next speaker out to the seating behind the stage 20 minutes before his part starts, from the Chairman's office. Well, they got up there, thanked Brother XYZ for his part, and announced Brother Teddy J for his part... and he turned, and there was nobody there. He came back to the microphone and said something to the effect of "well, he'll be here SHORTLY!"
Some brother then came walking out from behind the bleachers towards the stage, and everyone started CLAPPING. ?!?!!? (Turns out it wasn't Teddy, and the mystery brother was embarrassed) I asked the family about that... "they started clapping? Because he stepped into the arena?! Are you serious? WHY??" They said "They were Clap Happy. Probably didn't want him to feel embarrassed about being late to the stage." Ok...
Oh, and the other item: I have a copy of the YPA V2 book and will scan it tomorrow... keep your eyes peeled for it mid-day.
They also reported that paramedics were called after a young (little little) girl took a tumble down the stairs. Now that they're scaling back the conventions in Fort Worth to 3000 folks or so spread out over 5-6 weekends, makes you wonder why they just don't utilize the Assembly Hall in Denton and save the expense of renting.

A phone call from the elders.
by strawberry cake inmy husband and i left the org about 6 months ago and in voicing our views we were shunned.
the elders who were 'friends' treated us with cold efficiency to the letter of their law.
one older elder played 'good cop' and invited us over for a heart-to-heart.
