Curious about elderettes
by dgp inpeople, there i go again.
i'm curious about elderettes.
if i understand correctly, an elderette is an elder's wife who plays an important role in the congregation, even though the formal organization chart would not include her.

Edited(should read) If I understand correctly, an elderette is an elder's wife who plays a self-important role in the congregation, even though the formal organization chart would not include her.
If the family had any money the elderette was worse. Elderettes lose power in a divorce, until they can find another elder to marry.

Wow, Mr. <200 Posts. I'll give you a few points for balls, but to call out one of the JWN legends like that? No class.

Witnesses in my neighborhood yesterday
by TanCatLuvr inhubby told me that a mob of dubs got out of a mini van across from our house while i was at work yesterday (why do they always come when i am not home?).
an older brother and his son saw him in garage and came up to talk.
hubby being the polite guy he is, just listened.. hubby told him about my background and why i left.

Never heard any Ray Franz blamed for 1975 rumor, but then again I never paid much attention to that type of stuff. Makes for a perfect patsy for the WTS though. Instead of Ray leaving because of his conscience about the JW religion, the WTS could spin it to he was kicked out and have him take the fall for any 1975 fiasco backlash. The average JW would accept that explanation without question.

The GB claiming to be God's sole channel on earth, then voting on serious matters & doctinal flip-flops and the result proving that imperfect men are guiding this organization.

Feeling Unfit, Fat and Unhealthy
by cantleave ina semi-serious request.. i hate exercise (yes i am an indolent slob), i sit in an office or a car most of the time and eat and drink too much.
so my new year's resolution is to lose weight (about 3 stone would be good) to try and prolong my life a little since i ain't got eternity in mind anymore.
i am looking for fun ways to get fit, or an effective home based diet programme that has worked for other people.

I want to drop 20 lbs.
My plan is plenty of water. Cut back on food intake. More protein, less carbs in diet. Similar to Adkins, but not quite as strick on the carbs. Running, weight lifting & boxing work out. Back on L-Arginine and Protein supplements for muscle build.
Think About it
Update.......I'm down 25 lbs since posting this 2 months ago. Followed the plan above and the last 2 weeks have included a total body workout for a solid 2 hrs a day 6 days a week. Shooting for another 15 lbs now. Use to be in excellent physical condition, but haven't kept up with it the last 4 yrs until now.

sharpie marker
Until you google and find out where they are located....(hint A/G would be best reached with something more 'substantial' than a sharpie)
(LOLs)
Reaching the A/G would be no problem. The sharpie marker is to mark destination spots and write down instructions. Kinda like a live sexy treasure map.

"Hot" spots are named A, G, U and of course the obvious external Georgia O'Keefe....
Actually most women just pratically die when a guy kisses them on the neck a bit instead of heading immediately to the 'girls' or 'south of the border'
With this info......I could have some fun with a naked woman and a sharpie marker.

How prevalent is apostate paranoia in the KH?
by Think About It inwhen i was in the org.
you heard occasional talk about apostates.
i would think now with so many x-jw's and people who have left or fading, that there is probably alot of talk about this subject now.

Is there a lot of gossip about people in the KH and whether they might be apostates? You know, like psssss.....I think Eddie Elder, or Irma Inactive might be an apostate. What do you think? Got to be alot of paranoia inside. Do you know of any?
