If You Could Up The Tempo A Little What.......

by Englishman in

jw

i understand that for the last couple of decades it has become wt policy for local congregations to sing kingdom songs to recorded music.. now, apart from the awful uniformity and the squishing of individual musical inventiveness, this strikes me as another attempt by the wtbts to numb the publishers mind with banal hawaiian style paradise tunes.

no more an elderly sister treadling an ancient harmonium, bye bye li'l schoolgirl squeakily playing her recorder, ta ta to the teenage guitarist strumming a, g and d to every melody as the congregation gamely sang tunelessly on.. so, just for fun, i was thinking, wouldn't it be hilarious if we could switch the tape / cd / record just as bart simpson switched the church organists music to "in the garden of eden, baby" in a recent programme.. what song would you like to be broadcast over the pa system, bearing in mind that you would only have a few seconds before your efforts at sabotage would be rumbled?.

i've though about it for a while, and i would love to have the venga boys played to the congregation.. the title is, of course, "sex on the beach".

hi englishman

funny you should say that.

i once did that.

i changed the melody from, "from houe to house"

to "enter sandman by mettalica !

this is true, and i received a bollocking for doing it.

my dad was telling me today that i am a big dissapointment to my mum.. it seems the feels that all her years of rearing us are a waste of time,.

because her three kids dont go to the meetings.. she drew parralels to another family, in our hall, and said we all the same.. the other family has four kids, three of whom are/were drug dealers.. one was driven out of the country by terrorists because of it.. the other is a prick living in a giant house.

he only talks to you if hes bought.

My dad was telling me today that i am a big dissapointment to my mum.

it seems the feels that all her years of rearing us are a waste of time,

she drew parralels to another family, in our hall, and said we all the same.

the other family has four kids, three of whom are/were drug dealers.
one was driven out of the country by terrorists because of it.

the other is a prick living in a giant house. he only talks to you if hes bought
a new gold brick to show off. they all hate thier parents.

we arent the most successful bunch of kids ive ever met, but i thought
we had a good relationship with
our parents.

maybe thats not worth much after all.

see you

Ridiculous trips to the 'back room'

by Esmeralda in

jw
friends

the posts in the elders meeting thread got me thinking about this, so i've spun it off for into another thread.. were you ever 'counseled' because "some" in the congregation were disturbed by things you said/did/listened to/watched?.

here is just some of the stupid stuff that the elders brought me in on.

though they were usually handled through shepherding calls, not in the back room at the kh.. 1: because i decided to change my first and middle names.

josephus

hi there.

this is a good point.

i was once called over by the school overseer, to discuss my "obsession" with

CHESS!!!

he told me it was a dangerous thing to spend time competing, and could lead me astray.

funnily enough he later attempted to commit a fraud against me and my brother in an attempt
to have us disfellowshipped. he was removed himself, only after i threatened court action.

thats kinda why im here.

regards.
