  greetings, fellow lexophiles:.

  last night, i watched a cool road movie, the trip, with steve coogan and rob brydon.

  they were counseled by steve's dad to take an "anticlockwise" route home, rather than the clockwise one steve had proposed.

  2. friends

  me and my brother recently got into a discussion about the 1,000 reign.

  i told him that even after armageddon, you know that you still have to work for your salvation??

  he says yes, that he is prepared to work for jehovah (wth), and that it will be a wonderful time.

  Hotdog "rumour" - need verification

  by Fay Dehr in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in view of the recent jw broadcast warning about "rumours", i wanted to verify what has repeatedly been spouted by a certain am3:.

  "i saw bodies resembling human hotdogs" (or words to that effect).

  i have no idea where to begin, so perhaps some of you across the pond in usa may know some useful search tools?

  Does the younger generation have our work ethic?

  by compound complex in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  greetings, you hard workers:.

  i've had enough of speaking in generalities during my time as a jw evangelizer.

  while my own experience will offer up mere anecdotal examples at best, my contemporaries and i have found that kids today lack the earnestness and drive we older folks have had since youth: setting up a lemonade stand; doing yard work without power assist; mopping floors; running errands for a dime; cleaning parking lots, etc.

  One day the Nouns were clustered . . .

  by compound complex in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  one day the nouns were clustered on the street.. an adjective walked by, with her dark beauty.

  the nouns were struck, moved, changed.

  the next day a verb drove up, and created the sentence.. -- kenneth koch, "permanently".

  The Desolation of One Man

  by compound complex in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  he has searched long for that love of all loves, but it hastens not, although winter has come and left him desolate of every hope of warmth, comfort, and prospect of his name's immortality.

  nor will this elusive love reveal itself in his tiny dreams, allowing, at the very least, a gossamer of muted visions that would elevate a worn and bitter man to a level of expanded vistas, kindling within the flame of love's illusion..

  Have you ever gone back to a meeting out of curiosity?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  just wondering if anyone has gone back to a meeting out of curiosity?

  (perhaps to an area far from your old khall where you know no one).

  with all the changes from 2012 onwards (videos, tv screens, new meeting format, new songs etc) it would be an odd experience to be in attendance!.
