  id wonder how many wives of servants had the upper hand so to speak, on issues, that of course, were supposed to be private, yet gee lets be honest, husbands and wives talk.

  its nature.

  so if you were a wife of a servant how much did you get involved?

  My husband was an elder for the 20 years we were married. He told me ZERO!!!! Less than zero. Even things that were not confidential, he would always make sure that I heard them elsewhere.

  If he could have had me take a vow of silence and wear a hijab he would have. I was after all a woman.

  I am a sucker for all the homeless beggars in my town. I even carry baggies of dog food in my trunk for the ones with dogs. Will never give another $ to a religious group of any sort. That ship sailed.......

  In the late 60s and 70s we had to drive quite a ways to get to our KH up in Northern WI. After the Thursday night meetings, in the summer, my dear father would always stop at A & W Root Beer. This was such a HUGE treat for us five kids and a very happy memory.

  JW unwittingly shares article PROMOTING pot smoking

  by cappytan in

  2. friends

  so, my wife is surfing facebook today.

  comes across a post by a jw "friend" of ours titled "8 scientific reasons you should never smoke weed.".

  it turns out to be an article actually showing evidence to the contrary!

  It will be interesting to see how the society handles the legalization of cannabis. Especially since they cannot use the old fallback that smoking destroys your lungs because a lot of the pot today is inhaled by vapor pens or eaten as an edible.

  Really good article!

  Happy that you are here!

  I know what you mean about the day being ruined when you have to attend a meeting that evening. It took me years of being out before I could find anything good about Tuesdays and Thursdays. They were cursed days for four decades.
