  The OP is likely in the US because both are names of cars here.. I am fine with it being in the Humor section. It is more than amusing.

  They are already with their carts outside our local library. I only noticed them sitting on their chairs while I was driving out of the parking lot. The gals have to get their time in.

  When I was in the first or second grade (about 1952 or 3) I was taught by my grandmother the Lords Prayer when I stayed overnight at her place). She was a witness for more than a few years at that time. One of my aunts was a pioneer about that year too.

  I walked down the grand staircase in the Hermitage in St Petersburg, originally the Winter Palace. I remember the staircase because of the low rise of the stairs... It was before I had my knee replacements and commented that the person designing it must have had bad knees. No gown or tiara but I felt like a princess.

  the latest wt questions from readers on blood.

  fractions of all "primary" components are now allowed?.

  is this saying that everything is allowed except when they're combined together?

  This is a real oldie, but this was not mentioned; orthodox Jews will not eat blood in any form but have no problem with taking a transfusion. It is a dietary regulation, period. Any Jew will tell you so.

  why was there no official arrangement before 1952 to disfellowship people?

  was there a different procedure with a different name?

  was no one committing disfellowshipping offenses?

  I have read this thread several times while coming here this past 10-11 years and am always impressed with the dedication and thoroughness of the research. Mostly I miss those who have moved on or passed (RIP Farkel). This site is a treasure for anyone who always knew something was messed up in the witness world.

  If a severe side effect is truly severe, the patient went to the doctor. I would think any doctor will have no issue with reporting and it would be done.
