BTW no offense to anyone gay - just a compendium of some of the rumours of various activities at Bethel etc.

Bethel lyrics to the tune of YMCA
by Markfromcali inok this is mostly just a concept, but doesn't that song lend itself to a version about serving at bethel?
"it's fun to serve at the brooklyn bethel.." i don't have hardly anything, but maybe the last part:.
you can get yourself clean.

Ok - I whipped up my attempt in 15 minutes...
Young bro, there's no need for more school.
I said, young bro, you ain't Satan's fool.
I said, young bro, come on to the big town
There's no need to wash win-dows.
Young bro, there's a place you can go.
I said, young bro, just don't expect any dough.
You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find
It hard work on the assembly line.
It's no fun so why do you stay?
It's no fun so why do you stay?
There ain't anything for a man to enjoy,
Unless you like getting with the boys...
It's no fun so why do you stay?
It's no fun so why do you stay?
You must keep your speech clean, be there for every meal,
And never must cop a feel ...
Young bro, are you listening to me?
I said, young bro, what did you want to be?
I said, young bro, you can't have no wet dreams.
But you've got to keep your 5x5 clean!
It's no fun so why do you stay?
It's no fun so why do you stay?There ain't anything for a man to enjoy,
Unless you like getting with the boys...
It's no fun so why do you stay?
It's no fun so why do you stay?You must keep your speech clean, be there for every meal,
And never must cop a feel ...
Young bro, I was once in your shoes.
Working the presses, eating the food.
Never to move on, never to leave.
Sneaking in bottles of booze up my sleeve...
That's when someone came up to me,
And said, young bro, take a walk with me.
I'm a little older, and help you make your way.
And if nobody tells, it really ain't gay.
It's no fun so why do you stay?

Honestly I think the first one was hilarious. I found the second one completely derivative of the first. Also a lousy song. Kind of pointless to make a second one. Nothing too clever in it.

Same deal here. Dinner on Sunday (turkey) so that you can laze around on Monday (which I did). We went for Indian tonight on Thanksgiving proper.

Quick Build hard hats
by fleaman uk in.
in england about 5/6 years ago a directive kicked in that you were not allowed to put anything on your hard hat at the qb...apparently bro,s were putting all kinds of details down to ,er,attract the opposite sex....ms,rp etc!there were some desperate people out there...... any other crazy "hilarious"antics you remember at qb,s?

I remember that dude Quotes who would paint your name on your hard hat. It was essential when scoping out the young sisters and trying to gather some names. I remember some bros. started getting nicknames and things like that on them. Leave it to the WTS to suck every ounce of fun and whimsy out of every single facet of life.
Any of these dubs ever imagine what would happen if Paradise were real, but that they had to live under the same dictums that Ted Jaracz and the Bringdown Crew have been micromanaging for years?

The Will JW kids/students be the next big threat to the Watchtower Society?
by truthseeker inthe internet has only been around for 10 years, yet it has profoundly changed the way we live, work and entertain ourselves.
particularly for children, they have readily adapted to this technology so much so, that teachers and educators are finding that their traditional based curriculums are leaving kids bored.
these are the kids who are used to surfing, instant messenging and downloading digital music.

All the better in my books. The kids aren't going to be easily fooled and will check things twice. It seems there are a ton of them just waiting for 18 then ejecting...

Funny stuff candidly. We club seals of course and eat their meat on Thanksgiving like our forefathers did.
Actually a Canadian Thanksgiving is probably virtually identical to US Thanksgiving except there is no NFL football. I celebrate that one too!

Remembering Halloween As A JW Kid . . .
by Corvin ini remember my mom and my aunt making us kids open the door to the trick-or-treators and instead of giving them candy, we had to put wt and awake!
magazines (back issues) in their bags.
how embarrassing.. anyone else have the same experience?.
-

We often left the house and went to McDonald's. Most others pretended that they weren't home on Halloween (turned out the lights etc). I actually got to go for Halloween up until age 5 - then it stopped. Other kids gave me some candy though - didn't seem too bad.
Handing out WTs is pretty lame. Giving a little speech to kids about the evils of Halloween is simply ignorant.

I vaguely recall Wayne Johnson, but can't remember any particular experiences. I remember my brother saying good things about Zenny Pasternak. The real piece of work of David Wells. He was probably the cockiest CO I ever met. I guess his dad was a big-wig in the area and when Wells Jr. got assigned to the circuit it was a bit of a homecoming tour of duty for him. Excellent speaker and never boring to listen to, he definitely put every elder on edge. I can remember some of the old-timers like being a little uneasy with him and not sure what he was going to come up with. As to the comment early in this thread about a CO who said anyone watching the Simpsons was stupid, Wells recounted a Simpsons episode in one of his talks (about Lisa and Bart hugging the TV, and how it raised them) which let me know he wasn't a humourless stiff. We had them over to dinner and he was gracious, but all they could do was talk about pioneering etc as per usual and how good a life it was etc. He definitely wanted people sucking up to him and it kinda made me sick when a few of my friends rally went overboard with their personality transformation when he was around. I will also give Wells credit for this - he was a straight-shooter. He let you know if he liked you or not and he didn't hide his agenda.
