Good morning folks...I'm a little bleary eyed so I'm not sure whether this has already been mentioned, but there was a JW video around in the 80's called 'The Purple Triangle'. I don't remember watching it myself but I know my grandmother had a copy at one stage and they were being passed around between congregations. Perhaps my grandmother still has her copy....not sure.

Purple Triangle
by Wordly Andre ini was watching a documentry last week and it was about concentration camps, i was not paying much attention because i was on my computer at the same time, however they were talking about the different badges of shame that were put on the prisoners shirts.
when they got to the purple triangle it was said that, that meant the prisoner was a religious fanatics, now growing up the jw's always said that the purple triangle was for jw's, i am not saying they were not in the camps but, there were other religous groups that the members were taken by the nazi's because of their religious beliefs not just the jw's.
not too long ago i was talking to a jw about this same topic, he said the purple triangle was only for jw's and went on about the abuse and killings suffered because the nazi's targeted jw's.

I think I just broke the tele-market man
by whitman inwell, today is one of those procrastinatey days, i'm at home alone with the cat who is dazzling me with her new tricks.
so i got pretty excited when the tele-marketer man called to discuss a new and fantastic mobile phone deal.
i managed to keep him on the phone for 32 minutes as i explained to him that i could only use a blue telephone due to a specific type of colour blindness that i have....which i do not have.... turns out they just don't make blue phones.

Shamus - that must be one of the funniest phone pranks I've heard....hillarious.... mexican midget....hahaha ha oh dear... that's genius. I'm inspired to rig some type of recording device to the phone now....this could be my new thing... I've been looking for a new thing... no really, that's awesome...this day just keeps getting better and better...
Parakeet - how sweet are you..helping the youngsters out without hurting their feelings... I imagine one day when they are all grown up and responsible members of society they will probably do the same thing when a youngster comes a-knocking on their door selling the latest gadgetry for a zero-gravity environment or some such thing high tech uber-modern thing from the future.
H.L - Unbelievable indeed!! O the humanity!!! lol

I'm laughing...I'm crying...I'm doomed. So God is going to cause 'crazed madness' ...I don't know about you but crazed madness sounds kinda fun....I think I want the crazed madness too....but does that mean I have to hunt myself down? That's going to be tricky. I'll start stock piling immediately while I figure out which side I'm going to take. Thankfully I made a paper fortune teller last week so I'll use that to determine what to do.
Is there accompanying video available? I'd love to see his performance when he is doing the fake crying....awesome!!!

Oh no.... they are going to find college professors (read 'university lecturers' in Australian lingo) - I'm in trouble then...I was not advised that this was going to happen. Darn it, I'm always the last to know. I'll start baracading myself in after I've collected a stock pile of supplies and weaponry. Someone please tell me when it's safe to come out.

He even suggested that I get a black one and paint it blue. I told him I couldn't paint it because I couldn't actually see it if it's black, so I wouldn't know where to put the paint brush. He suggested I get a friend to paint the black phone blue...and so it went for 32 minutes.

The JW online dating sites are hysterical!! If you haven't checked them out, I highly recommend it. 'Brother seeks sister for marriage' - 'I am scripturally divorced and free to marry', 'i know you will overlook any physical issues of my weight since all will be fixed in the new system' etc etc ...and you can run searches to see how cute the contestants are. Crack open a bottle of wine, pull out the popcorn and start searching.

It worked for me! I've sent you a pm about it. I hear that RSVP is good. I'm not sure if Yahoo still has the personal dating site but if they do then I'd suggest checking that out as well, it was the site that I used.
