Any suggestions for legitimate work at home jobs?
by coffee_black inmy daughter may need this.
since she has heart failure, she may not be able to go back to work, because her dr. has placed her on a 5 lb lifting restriction.
her company has held her job open for her since the end of november, but will not agree this restriction.. she has applied for disability, but since her dr would allow her to work at all (dispite strict restrictions) she has been told that they will not likely approve her.... so she is caught between a rock and a hard place.

by looloo inthis lady is quite new to my workplace and we got chatting and she asked how i met my husband etc ... after i finished telling her of my jw experiances she said i could write a book and i really should !
she said she has a friend who shes known for 30 years and she became a jw about 15 years ago and this friend had recently deleted her off her friends list !
she also said this friend likes to play bingo which she presumed wouldnt be allowed in the religion so had thought it cant be all that strict in that religion !!!!!

Lazy Ass Dubs
by Farkel ini noticed a recent comment the other day on a piece i wrote several years back on rutherford and al capone.
it was posted here first, but it is now on another (actually several) websites.
the (obviously) dub writer was upset that i didn't present links and "verifiable" references to prove my statement that grudge rutherford had two 16 cylinder cadillac automobiles, among some other things i stated.

You are correct Farkel, I googled looked for a non JWN site and found wikipedia. Some people just like to blow smoke.

If One More Person Calls Me "Boo" LOL
by PublishingCult inseems to be the trend today to call another, a friend or loved one, "boo".
it was cute about five years ago when it was seldom used.. it's old, it's overdone, it's done by everyone, it should stop now.
find a new pet name you damned boo-hooers .

Undercover apostates...
by Maze ini've observed some forum users here that claim to be active witnesses (even claims to be ministerial servants or elders) while duplicitously supporting apostates online.
my contention is this; why attend meetings and/or participate in the preaching activity when the second you divulge your apostate thinking into the congregation, you'll be disfellowshipped?
while this action taken may seem to be harsh, the outworking of events wouldn't be much different in one of christendom's churches.

Maze I am still in due to my family. If you have read threads and posts from members you would plainly see why MOST are still in.

Jehovah's Witnesses & Higher Education
by minimus ini believe that jws demonize higher education so much, that it makes them look like weirdos!.
you and your family are penalized if someone goes to college!.
when i tell any "worldly" (aka "normal" person) that witnesess view higher education with disdain and ridicule, i always get the same response:.

If you allow a family member or sanction the child's decision to go to school, you're out!
Not necessarily, it depends on the elder body. The "counsel" that was given is "your responsibility may come into question". So if you have a body that is more lax then they can defend their non action and justify it said "may".

Jewelry advice
by TD inas every married man knows (or should know) anniversaries where the number ends in either zero or five are more special and important than all the others.
your 20th is somehow more special than the 19th) anyhow, i've got one of those "magic number" anniversaries coming up and am thinking about jewelry.

What is your budget?
For ideas check out the major jewelry "middlemen" Debeers, Barmakians, DePrisco, Descenza etc.

New Light @ The 2011 District Convention
by dontplaceliterature in" at the bottom of the image on the back of the invitation raises some eyebrows, but last night in the routine district convention article during the service meeting, i caught that one of the paragraphs mentioned that we would be encouraged to keep a copy of the tract in hand for a discussion during sunday's last talk.
my guess is, there is going to be some new revelation about what the "?
" represents, or some other fangled idea.

Those invites are a crock. Our DC is over 2 hours away, does the WTS think someone will drive that far to listen to a religious talk?

How I Know The Assembly Parts Are Made Up
by lovelylil inwe had a co looking for a certain experience for an assembly part coming up and the elders in my hall at the time sent him to see me, since i usually had good experiences out in field service.. anyway, after speaking with the co, i was sorry to inform him that i did not have an experience that suited the type he needed.
he told me that was o.k.
because he could use me anyway for another part.

Oompa I agree. I have been in several parts and my husband has given talks. I am sure some are twisted or made up but from experience most are on target with their stories.
