Fake Movie preview - something I do for fun...
by sd-7 ini used to write some of those on my facebook account.
i'd make up a really bad movie and come up with lines, a title, and throw some explosions in.
because previews are supposed to make the movie look 10 times better than it really is, by showing you all the coolest stuff in like, less than 3 minutes.. i had a crazy thought this morning, of like, a "based on a true story" movie about rutherford and russell.

Hmmm, shouldn't Mr. Trickle be sponsored by some brand of saw palmetto dietary supplements?
OK, back on topic.
It doesn't matter how much doubt or hidden anger or confusion a person has inside the Organization. Why? Because they don't have anyplace ELSE to go.
If I may stretch the "seed of doubt" analogy a little further, just planting it isn't enough. You need to water it and remove the weeds, so your seed can sprout and take root. When somebody says "Where else could we go?" that's a sign that they see their faith being limited to the WT organization. They think they have nowhere else to go, and that is what traps them. Show them there is a difference between their beliefs and the organization, that there is good to be found in the world beyond the walls of the Kingdom Hall.

Just wondering ....
by talesin inthere are many new posters here, and i'm very interested to learn why you chose your screen names.. .
one book i read, the mists of avalon, was very important to me.
among the main characters was merlin, who in the book, was called "taliesen".

I chose the name of a recurring character in the Firesign Theater comedy sketches, George Leroy Tirebiter. Not much went right for him, despite the best of intentions (the emcee of the fictional Beat the Reaper game show introduced him as "winner of the Academy's coveted good sport award...").
The Firesign quartet borrowed that name from a canine mascot on the USC campus. That George Tirebiter liked to chase cars and bicycles, nipping at their tires--thus his name (and also his eventual undoing).
So be careful what you chase, because if you catch it who knows what may happen next? You might become the next Un-Believing Mate to sign up at JWN!

Quite a few decided to join this past weekend.
Is that a reflection of this summer's convention agenda? Perhaps it was enough to make some fence-sitters decide they's had enough. Could it have been intended to do exactly that, to weed out the "weak ones"?

I'm running a swamp cooler and a fan. It's down to about 90 now, it was 95 a few hours ago. The cold drink helps, too.

Guys!! Guys!!! Two Jehovah's Witnesses were just at my door!!
by ziddina inand of course, i had some fun with them... an older, brunette woman who obviously dyes her hair and could stand to lose a bit of weight, and a slim blonde teenage girl - probably around 15 - 17.... i started out by asking them if they knew how old the bible was.... .
(and unfortunately, i think i demonstrated that i wouldn't make a very good "undercover" bible study prospect... .
but they didn't even know how old - young - the bible was!!.

Good job Zid! Maybe too good, I doubt that older one will ever come back, and the younger one is due for some extra shepherding if the older one reports she listens to such talk. There's probably a special note on the the territory card about you, something like
"Danger: the she-devil lives here!"
I wonder what would happen if they saw you wearing your red dragon outfit? That would scare most of them straight back to the car and off to the other end of the territory!
