  How often did you comment at meetings?

  i have a theory and i'd like to put it to the test here.. i would be willing to bet that the posters who post a great deal probably commented more than the average publisher at the meetings.. i know it's true in my case.. on simon's forum we have the whole range of 'publishers-' from those that comment a lot ---down to those that are just there.

  the lurkers.. what about you?.

  I would comment about 2 -3 times a night.
  Very often it would be something with a double meaning, just to see if everyone was awake.
  I detested stuffy meetings, so tried to make them as enjoyable as possible for everyone.

  I would make my parts as unconventional as possible, too.
  I should qualify that by saying that I didn't intentionally try to make the meetings a comedy (not always, anyhow), but some brothers had it coming.

  In retrospect, it's a wonder they ever appointed me as an elder.
  They are probably glad to see the back of me, so they can go back to their monotonous little spiritual paradise.

  "Dubs For Dummies"

  dear brothers and sisters in the worldwide brotherhood of jehovahs witnessestm,.

  there has been much public interest in our beliefs lately, so we have prepared a very brief summary of our core beliefs in a new pamphlet which you may offer to interested persons.

  hopefully, this pamphlet will generate enough interest with honest-hearted people and enable you to start many new bible studies.

  Farkel, I owe you an apology and a huge debt of gratitude.

  Early on I had judged you as inconsiderate and unnecessarily harsh, and this had coloured my view of all your posts.

  This post has had my sides splitting with laughter - THANKYOU!
  Totally irreverant, but even as a Christian I couldn't stop bursting out laughing. I needed a laugh today, too.
  The only thing you missed out was the blood and abuse issues, but I guess it's only a six page, two-sided tract, not a 32 page brochure, huh?
  I hope this gets posted far and wide, because it's simply priceless.

  I seem to recall that ownership of the Falklands somehow had some reflection on territorial rights to Antartica.
  Then again, I may be wrong, as it's off the top of my head, but it rings a bell.
  I think there was some similar issue between Britain and Iceland over fishing rights, due to the possesion of a small island.

  I'm just going to waste one more of my posts to state that I'm not going to bother wasting any MORE of my posts on this particular fluff thread.
  1914 / 1925 / etc. have WHAT significance in the great scheme of things?

  Wicked witch of the West, "Help me, I'm melting...."
  I guess you are right, I am shrinking after all.
  I guess that makes you the bigger guy!
  Okay...

  Errr, RIGHT!
  Okay, so the Brit's did it first, but that still doesn't invalidate my statement.

  I understand that the Falklanders were offered the opportunity to become part of the Argentines and refused.
  Seems to me they are now exercising their right to choose their own rulers.

  Of course that's just my humble opinion.

  This is such a funny thread!!!
  I thought the April fools day fun was over.
  I guess you're just in a totally different timezone / planet.

  Maybe I haven't hung around this type of board long enough, but I've never seen anyone try to close down a thread with bluff, empty rhetoric and name-calling, and then blame everyone else for not addressing the issue!

  LOL - Thanks pal - I needed a good belly laugh, too, and you've given me it.

  ~contented sigh~

  Now back to addressing one of your issues:

  With Satan's everlasting welfare (life) at stake he'll do anything

  Did you skip the Revelation bit, where it shows he's finished even if he does up the ante?
  He's already toast - no matter what he does.

  Aha, the usual ploy of "if losing, start a flame war and slide out of sight from the wreckage".
  Come on Friday, you can do better than that!

  Congrats Alan.

  I think I prefer your letter to mine. I'm pleased it was able to help in any way.
  Well done in getting it all taped - love to hear it sometime.

  You've got to be feeling a little wrung out at the moment, as well as elated. Feel free to email, if you would like to talk.

  Well done, and as someone once told me:
  No advice except rejoice!
  The first day of the rest of your life, my brother!
