Kangaroo's on the road
by Mattieu inhi all, driving to work this morning (tuesday), traffic had to stop to let a mob of kangaroos bounce acrooss the road.
they were the lucky ones, every day on my trip to work i see at least one dead kangaroo that has been hit by a car/truck.. as the suburbs push further out of melbourne, the kanagroo's become more desperate for food/water, hence it's normal to see them in our estate.
at my local golf course, you have to play around the kanagaroo's as they are so used to humans they do not flinch if you are next to them.

I used to feel trapped oompa, but am feeling a new taste of freedom now, though sadly with so many family members and friends still in, I feel as though the borg still has some sort of hold on me, if that makes sense....
Though when I look at a few of my family still in, I feel sad for them as they look genuinely trapped, like deer eyes caught in the headlights, they want to move out of the way but are too constrained by the pharisees... Fortunately, one of them is starting to ask a lot of questions that like me will bring on the fade. I think that what keeps a lot of people stuck in JW land is the consequence of family relationships. At least it did with me...
PS - As you are from NC, do you know of a c/o or elder in NC or SC by the name of "Sims or Simms?"

We have had quite a few j-dubs from the USA and Japan who have come over in the last few years who freak out how close we are to them.
Though I was wondering what animals do you have to avoid in your neck of the woods on the roads overseas?? Moose? Bears? Dick Cheney?

Shock! Vampire Governing Body members drink blood of Bethelites to stay young!
by Witness 007 inat least three governing body members {john barr ted jaracz and anonomus} drink the blood of new bethel volunteer virgins to steal their "life force" {blood is life} or "mojo"......this would explain why these members don't die and live to be over 100 years old.....the witness ban on blood transfusions is a greedy ploy to save more blood for themselves to bathe in...they never leave bethel during daylight hours...they ban crosses and holy water, hello people vampires!
garlic is not allowed to be served at bethel meals so brothers don't have bad breath....yeah right, vampires!
vampires, vampires!!!!.

Hence the move from Brooklyn to upstate NY, more wooded forests for them to play in at night, nobody in NY city is scared of vampires anymore....
Suggested presentation in May K/Ministry: "Hello (insert big fangy smiley face here) my Christian Bible student partner and I have come to suck your blood....."

It was a classic line my Mum always used to use too, "Our brains have been washed clean thanks to Jehovah" Though I look back now and wonder if she really meant it or just had no where else to go....
Watson, cannot believe they would use that line from the platform, puke feeling being aroused.....

Any Change on YMCA Policy?
by bavman ini had heard recently the wtbs may have changed their policy on the ymca.
it would be helpful to me personally if they have.
i did know of a couple of people in my last congregation who went but i also heard some elders talking against it.

Mattieu
Does that mean one can get df'd for singing the YMCA song or just a private reproof? What about If I sang the song and did the dance spelling out YMCA, surely a sign of an apostate.... Man those Village People rock.....

he called 911 and shot himself while talking to them.

Hi Ken, so sorry to hear the bad news, thinking of you buddy.
In regards to
Is this common in todays congregations? No one knows why he did this.
I only know of 2 brothers who sadly did commit suicide, one of them would be the last person you would pick. He was in my pioneer school and the last time I saw him was at the Sunday meeting, he was an MS, answering up, doing mike duty, looked very happy. Yet was suffering from depression as most JW's do.
There was also a spate of suicides amongst jw's back in the late 80's in Sydney including one at Bethel, though I do not know of the facts. I think it would definitely help you personally to go to the Memorial. Stay safe. Mattieu.

A@G, I enjoyed that immensely as I had my morning coffee break, keep up the good work. I only hope that active JW's get to watch that video and more..
PS - As you invited us to open our Bibles to Revelation, did that bring back memories of speaking from the platform? I marked you as a "G" overall, with an "I" for use of camera and a "W" for personal grooming. Now that brings back memories....
