  this morning the jw lady (p) and her daughter (m) came over for a second follow-up visit.

  however, this is the first time m has been present for any extensive conversation.

  i'm glad she showed up, though, because some major things happened, and i think if there is any breakthrough forthcoming it will be terrific to see 2 in one family get out at the same time.. .

  BRAVO!!!!!

  very well done. Maybe, just maybe you've cracked a JW's shell (or two). Excellent.

  Please keep us posted on "when she returns".

  Hugs,

  One day, in line at the company cafeteria. Joe says to Mike behind him,
  "My Elbow Hurts Like Hell. Guess I better see a Doctor."
  "Listen, you don't have to spend that kind of money," Mike replies. "There's
  a Diagnostic Computer down at Wal-Mart. Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what's wrong, and what to do about it. It takes ten seconds and costs ten dollars...a lot cheaper than a doctor."
  So Joe deposits a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to Wal-Mart. He deposits ten dollars, and the computer lights up and asks for the urine sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits. Ten seconds later, the computer ejects a printout:
  "You have tennis elbow soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy
  activity. It will improve in two weeks.
  Thank You For Shopping @ Wal-Mart. '"

  That evening while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Joe began wondering if the computer could be fooled. He mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and a sperm sample for good measure. Joe
  hurries back to Wal-Mart, eager to check the results.
  
  He deposits ten dollars, Pours in his concoction, and awaits the results.

  The computer prints the following:
  1. Your Tap Water Is Too Hard. ~ Get A Water Softener. (Aisle 9)
  2. Your Dog Has Ringworm. ~ Bathe Him With Anti-Fungal Shampoo. (Aisle 7)
  3. Your Daughter Has A Cocaine Habit. Get Her Into Rehab.
  4. Your Wife Is Pregnant. Twins - They Aren't Yours. Get A Lawyer.
  5. If You Don't Stop Playing With Yourself, Your Elbow Will Never Get Better.
  Thank You For Shopping @ Wal-Mart.

  i loved it!

  i would be laughing my ass off one minute and crying the next, then tapping my feet to the beat of his music the next.. ray didn't hold any of the truth back, even his bad points were there for all to see.

  and as for jaime foxx, he definately deserves an oscar.

  Foxx is a classically trained pianist.

  I didn't know that. I play the piano, for myself only , and there were only a few times that it was obvious to me that Foxx was faking it. Otherwise, he impressed me with how well he did. He played the part so well, but how do you channel when Ray wasn't dead when they filmed it?

  my eldest granddaughter is 19 today.

  that sure makes me feel old.

  okay, she is a step granddaughter, but she's been ours since she was 3, so i rarely remember that part.

  ok, I'll say it.......why Mulan, you look too young to have a granddaughter that old!

  That's a great picture of her.

  Hope you guys aren't too tired after all the move and birthday parties.

  Simon and others: Inspiring Words and this Forum.

  these inspiring words will remind you how to make your dreams come true.. "through confidence and perseverance comes the ability to succeed!".

  many of you have proven that these words have inspired you to succeed in whatever endeavors you have chosen after having come out of the watchtower.. i have read simon's and many of your post's, where - in you have shown confidence, and perseverance along with the ability to succeed in whatever endeavors you have chosen for yourselves after having come out of the watchtower.

  i too, after having spent 30 years serving the watchtower, two and one half years later, after having left he watchtower, i have succeeded in passing my medical examiner's tests and am now licensed to practice in one of the many health care concerns at the young age of 60.. this shows that all of us can go on and succeed after life in the watchtower.. this forum and the many nameless persons who have posted here have been an inspiration to carry on.

  eighty eight years ago today, c. t. russell kicked the bucket and went to his, er, "reward".

  yes, it was on halloween.

  was jellyfish russell done in by poison, perhaps delivered by an agent operating under the direction of booze rutherford?

  That being said, there is much interest downunder by various groups and churches in wanting to know how they can help people out of the Watchtower.

  wow, that's good to hear, Ozzie. I still think of all the wonderful work JanG did. Miss her.

  happy halloween everyone!.

  i can't wait to take my son trick-or-treating today, but this is my first year dressing up, too.. my question is, can i bring a bucket to collect candy, too?

  i mean, i am dressing up and all so does that entitle me to bring a bucket?

  One other thing is you could just be honest and say that "The fun of Halloween was deprived from your childhood". Most people when they hear that will heap kindness on you and give you extra candy even.

  I agree. I find most people are so sympathetic and I can also get a good "witness" in....for people not to get involved with the JW's. lol

  Have fun!
