  How did he ever survive the TMS? Remember when they'd give "Gs" or "Ws" back in the day? Did any school overseer ever call him out on looking like a complete LOON? How did the GB select him, anyway? I know he was a CO at one point, but god DAMN. If I were on the GB and looking for potential guys to "tap" for membership, I'da been the first one to say, "Wait. Hold up. We have a certain image to maintain, do we not? This guy's bizarre behavior on the platform will make people think they're in some kind of nutty CULT."

  When I hear the term "cult" to describe JWs, his face is always the picture that pops into my head. Could you imagine if Ronmey or Obama behaved like him in a presidential debate? It would kill his chances at ever being considered. How can anyone in the audience at a CA or DC take this man seriously? I've seen a few of his talks in different states across the USA and my friends always start laughing and say something to the effect if, "What's WITH THIS GUY???"

  I just read your story. I am always curious to ask people for details on how they got discovered. How did your internet postings eventually get the attention of the elders? Were you posting anonymously or did you forget to close a window on your PC?

  I cannot believe that illustration. Door to door? In the 1st Century?!?!? With Louis Vuitton satchels??? Containing SCROLLS????? I LOL'ed when I saw it in the ragazine and I LOL'ed again just now! That's the epitome of historical editing and academic dishonesty. I cannot believe the writing committee and art department signed off on that picture. It can easily be debunked. The fact that they're HANDING OUT PAMPHLETS IN SCROLL FORM implies that there was a governing body (albeit lowercase) publishing the material on parchment. The NERVE!

  There's a great Halloween store next to a Starbucks in my town. One autumn, there was a theme party at a JWs house and we all went into that store after a FS break at Starbucks lol! It was great! We walked out of there with tons of outfits and I jokingly said we should leave a tract to keep our time going and the elder in our group said "No way! Are you kidding?"

  I really wanna play catch-up! I have a great group of "heathen worldlings," faded and exJWs and I'm gonna try and arrange something for this year. There are tons of clubs in my city that throw fantastic parties. I feel no sense of "weirdness" in wanting to do this. None at all. I've had over 35 years to think about what I'd wanna go as. So, my biggest challenge is deciding on a costume. My second-biggest challenge will be to avoid being photographed and tagged on any social networking sites because I'm only faded with several generations on both sides still inside the bOrg. This would sever all ties I still have with them. Oh well... I'm not gonna let that put a damper on the fun. Here are a few ideas I have for my first getup:

  1) King Tut (with golden face and body, eyeliner and a nemes hat)

  2) Zombie Mohammed (but I won't go in public for fear of having my throat slit)

  3) Pennywise the Clown from Stephen King's IT

  4) Jambi the Genie from Pee-Wee's Playhouse

  5) The LMFAO Robot

  6) Darth Vader, a Storm Trooper or Emperor Palpatine

  Does this board have any other ideas? Is anyone else dressing up? For those of you who have done it, is it as fun as it looks? I have no conscience issues with birthdays or X-mas, but I have no desire to celebrate them. They really seem like they'd be a chore. Every year, it's an obligation to buy gifts. I'm not sure I wanna start that cycle. But Halloween has always been the holiday I wished I could participate in. Back in the 80s when costume parties were still allowed, those were my favorite thing to do! I'm even thinking about volunteering at a haunted house this year just for $#!+s and giggles!
