  Crosby redeemed himself bigtime with that goal. I love Crosby, but after that botched breakaway, I was writing him off my list of elite players.

  Oh, and yes, I am one Canadian that would be happy with the lone gold medal in hockey.

  just been reading the resurrected topic "remember when assemblies were fun".. bought back some good memories particularly regarding the 'holiday camps'.. i was going to add this but decided it warranted it's own topic.. the 'good times' have been replaced by incessant rules.

  here is a selection from the last circuit assembly i attended.

  please feel free to add to the list.. .

  As a hockey fan there is one gold medal that is near an dear to my heart. I am looking for some redemption from Turin in 2006.

  And I want to beat the Russians doing it....otherwise it just won't be the same.

  How did you feel when they let a 10 year old boy stand up on the podium and a sister couldn't ?

  one thing that really bothered me about the ministry school was letting a little boy around 10 years old read an outline and scripture.

  he faced and addressed the audience.

  he was actually teaching.

  After meetings, my 4 year old daughter used to like going in the second school, get up on the podium with a chair and pretend she was giving a talk while I sat in as the audience. This was when I was giving talks and she was trying to imitate me.

  Well one day, the PO comes in and says "sweetie, what are you doing?" with a fake chuckle. My daughter replies that she's giving a talk. The PO looks at me, as if to say, why aren't you keeping your daughter in line. You have to nip this spirit of independance in the bud.

  He then gives us that creepy chuckle again while telling my daughter that she should be giving her talk from the table next to the podium instead.....what a jackass!!

  I bleed Italian blood.....but if they bow out I'd like to see England make some noise. Lampard, Gerrard and Rooney will be absolutely critical for their success.

  Mary, great replies and good idea to redirect interested ones to the discussion board.

  You may have spooked all the JWs away though when you identified yourself as a former JW, aka apostate.

  "Jehovah Witness attend church on Saturdays"

  will this witness throw a murder trial?.

  after the trial ended for the day tuesday, reese spoke with the attorneys about a potential problem: the only black juror, a female, also is a jehovah's witness.

  jehovah witness attend church on saturdays.. reese plans to give the case to the jury no later than friday morning, but they will be sequestered until a verdict is reached or until the jury cannot make a decision.. brener said he would rather wait to see if the jury can reach a decision rather than question the juror about the possibility of her having to deliberate and be sequestered during her faith's church schedule.. the issue remains undecided.. http://www.cape-coral-daily-breeze.com/page/content.detail/id/514331.html?nav=5011.

  Did you loathe going in field service, if so why?

  i always felt like i was not a "spiritual" person because i loathed going in field service.

  i'm not even sure why i loathed it.

  i am very outgoing and can talk to anyone, anytime, about anything.

  I absolutely hated it. It especially bothered me after 2 mormons came to my door one day, and I realized how annoying it truly was to have it was. Besides, how arrogant was it for us to refuse to read any of their literature, but expect them to be open to any of ours?

  It was the 80's and I was in the Italian, so you're right, it could've been something unique to them. But I distinctly remember marking houses that were threatening or overly aggressive with an R on the territory sheet.
