did anything exciting or alarming ever happen at your hall?

i remember only funny incidents, like one brother getting up there with his zipper down.

last year, i bought a few movies for my 16 year old niece when i went on vacation, among them was the movie "the chronicles of narnia (the lion, the witch and the wardrobe).

a few days later my brother called and said that he would like if i came by to pick up the movie as they would not allow their daughter to watch that movie.

(my brother is an elder) when i went to his house the movie was left virtually the same place that i had left it.

The image in Daniels dream...what does it mean now?

i am new here, so i know i missed this being discussed in earlier threads......anyway i remember how prominently the image in daniels dream was being portrayed in public talks and books...especially when russia was a world power.

since the breakup of that country, what is the new explanation for the 'gog of magag'.

also the feet of the image that was of part clay and stone or something like that, symbolized unrest by democratically ruled nations.

where i work... an employee's birthday is a paid holiday.

as a witness and an elder, i always had a tough time explaining why jws didn't celebrate birthdays but could accept the day off and be paid for it .

"a matter of conscience" was usually the explanation.

did you refrain from obtaining a degree or advanced studies when you had the chance because it wasn't the witness thing to do?

how has this affected your life?

comments, rants, and personal experiences please.
