  Reading WT literature/talking to a JW is like talking to a 10 year old.

  ok, so some witnesses left the "watchtower" mag.

  at my door the other day....so i picked it up and read it.... it was like reading the logic of a 10 year old.

  then when i talk to jw, like my cousins that still talk to me, or like the trolls (jws) who are on the board some nights, i feel as i'm talking to a 10 year old.... like the troll on-line tonight.... do you guys agree?.

  10 is being fair, I think. Some of them are at that high level...others, well, I'd say 5 is about their limit.

  OTWO...I had to laugh because when I first read the title of your thread, I thought it said "I need A date for the 2008 memorial" and I thought to myself that you'd have a hard time finding someone here...

  The date is different because the JW's think that the Jews don't know the correct date of their own holiday. Check Reasoning from the Scriptures. It basically says that the Jews don't celebrate Passover on the right day. I had this argument with hubby last year. I even did a bunch of research on Nissan 14. They don't get the whole idea that the holiday starts at sundown on the prior "day".

  A Party For The Elders

  at the risk of outing myself and my hubby, i just had to run this by everyone to see if it was just me.... last night i attended a function that the women of hubby's hell put together to honor their boe.

  there was much food and they put the guys up on a stage and played "name that elder" and then interviewed each one.

  the mc of the event gave deep commentary regarding his feelings of each of the elders.. i thought the elders weren't special...that they were just regular joes with more responsibility...certainly not guys that should be lauded for doing what they have been given the "priviledge" of doing.... am i wrong?.

  They stopped short of giving gifts, but there was a nice skit put on by the ladies of the hell, sort of like, "A Day in the Life of the Elderettes"...or "What it would be like if women were allowed to be elders". It was disgusting...they were joking about the meetings being late because they'd be shopping and one woman came on stage with a giant bottle of "Midol" and was crying alot like she had the worst case of PMS in the world. Every stereotype you can think of for a woman, they showed it. I wanted to yell at them!

  Then one old elder with a foot in the grave told the "young ones" to stay away from the world and started talking about "bad associations". I put my hands over my daughter's ears!!!

  Am I wrong?

  Actually, I was rather ill by the time it was all said and done. Also, it occurred to me that the timing of the event was suspect...a dinner to "give thanks" during November...sounds like Thanksgiving replacement to me.

  OK ladies. Bald is beautiful on the right guy as long as he's also sporting a goatee. I also love long dark locks of hair and a stubbly beard. Gotta be tall and solid.

  Loved the pics Purps...Mr. Depp is the best of the group. As far as celebs go, how about Sean Connery and Joey Fatone? (I know they're really different, but I have a wide range of tastes...)

  Skeeter...it's Janis Joplin, not Janet! Sorry to correct, but she's my favorite and I can't let it slide.

  Now, the quote:

  "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts." -- Bertrand Russell
