  JW conventions

  by WildTurkey in

  i was wondering, how did you pass the time at the circuit assemblies and district conventions?

  i hated those things, they are to damn long.

  i would walk the hall, and look for brothers to talk to.

  Everyone knew you just HAD to have a set of binoculars!!! I'd sit there all day and watch people across the coliseum napping, eating or whatever! : )

  I've been shunned from my sister's wedding

  by Quotes in

  2. experiences

  the following is the contents of a hand-written letter i just received from my (21 year old) sister, who is getting married may 18. for some reason, i thought that she would let love and compassion be stronger than wt programming.

  but i was wrong.

  yeah, it sucks.. *** my question for the board ***.

  This really SUCKS!!! DAMN those "in charge" in the congregation who have put, no, FORCED this upon your sister!!! I would attend the wedding if you and your wife desire... but personally, I would opt out of pictures, etc. I personally would feel so used by this... get in the family pictures, smile... now see ya later, chum. NO WAY!!! If I couldn't go and enjoy the reception they'd see my face for the vows and that's it. Your sister needs to understand that she and the rest of the JW's CANNOT have it both ways!!!! Whew... sorry, that wore me out! This really hits home and I cannot abide by the 2-faced people in the organization!!!!! [v}

  I'm sorry, but can you say "Prozac"????? He "loves to write"???? He also needs to learn how to spell!!!! Maybe this is why he can't find a woman. In all seriousness, this guy does have some real issues here...

  Cool thread! Totally up my alley!!!

  Virgo, Libra rising... "is a very good sign..." (I know,it was Pisces, but hey...) : )

  I had my chart professionally done a few years back and the guy told me that i was a true virgo (yup, I knew that!)and that being libra rising I had "happy skin"! I am a very upbeat person... so I was happy with the reading... it seemed right on target.

  Favorite food at Assemblies

  by finnrot in

  2. friends

  i hated growing up as a witness.

  i hated the boring ass meetings where you could hear a pin drop on the floor, i hated going door to door and i hated not being normal like the other kids.. but the one thing i liked was going to the assemlies at the oakland coliseum.

  i would wander around and find other kids to goof around with.

  I remember the days where we'd have fresh chef salads and for dessert: Ice cream sundaes!!! Yes, those days are long gone... now everyone gets to schlep their own food and drinks... or go out to eat and never make it back for the second half of the session!!!

  as some of you know i've been feeling like crap lately.. i've taken some days off and stopped watching the news.

  it's crazy to say but i get so depressed everytime i see and hear something about the war.

  i don't know maybe i am going nuts.. well i flew to la over the weekend and hung out with a friend from the chp....even suggested i should apply with them and move out there..who knows..just might do that..a change would be refreshingly nice.
