  Jehovah's witness meetings are NOT BORING......

  by punkofnice in

  ...i was told but they usually were as i look back.. as a lad i'd sit and look to see who the lights would fall on.

  i'd get an almond and see how long i could suck it before i chewed at it.

  i'd imagine playing rock'n'roll on the congregation's piano.. how did you get through the meetings when you were bored?.

  I loved to write (still do) and I would note every stupid thing that came out of anyone's mouth. Needles to say,

  rarely stopped writing. I collected all the sheets of paper and put them in a folder. I lost the folder years

  ago..or I think when I moved out of my parents' house I left it and they did. Shame though. There were

  some real good ones.

  One time my older sister (who wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed) was reading from a scripture,

  the one about the stars will answer in applause, and instead of applause, she said applesauce.

  I got sent to the back with a right rolicking for laughing so hard.

  My mother stopped asking a few years ago when I said that I'd

  rather have my toenails ripped out with pliers instead.

  I couldn't bear it anymore. I got about 15 minutes in to when he

  mentioned Wild Kingdom and Mooountain Rams. The way he stretches

  his vowels out makes me want to jump out of my window here. It brought

  all sorts of horrific memories back of Yankee Stadium sweltering chair

  sticking summers of endless talks, disgusting food and smelly toilets.

  Well, since they were still married at the time of death your wife may have a legitimate claim.

  I would get a copy of the will, death certificate for the husband and get some legal

  advice. Every state has different laws. Crazy...it might cost you more in the long run with legal

  fees though if you do plan to fight it. Good Luck!

  Was your wife divorced from him before he died or after? Because if they were divorced before all of the property

  would have been sorted out in the divorce and the house would be his completely. If he died while your wife

  and he were still married, it might entitle her to some equitable distribution. Other than that, you have no legal standing if

  the divorce were final and his will executed after a divorce because in order to finalize a divorce, all parties

  have to agree to the distribution of the assets.

  That's the general law here in PA. (I'm a law student, btw.) That will be $40 :)

  I agree. It doesn't seem like America has many friends there.
