My family went hunting, as did most of the elders where I lived. Few sport hunters there, most were in it for the meat.

I Just Found Out That The Elders SAVED A Seat For ME For The Memorial
by minimus ina few weeks ago, i visited my mom and a couple of elders and a young ms also came by to see her.
while i was there, the elders invited me to the memorial and i was very polite with them and thanked them for their invitation.. i just spoke to my mother and she said the elders saved 2 seats for my mother and i !
they seemed confident that i would show up.. unbelievable!.

Why the Memorial Is Held on the Wrong Day
by Leolaia intonight on the evening of april 18, 2011, observant jews worldwide will celebrate passover seder, a night "different from all other nights".
the watchtower society annually schedules the memorial for jehovah's witnesses on a date that is supposed to coincide with the jewish observance of passover, as it would have been reckoned during second temple times (in particular, in the first century ad during the life of jesus).
this year the memorial was observed last night, the evening of april 17. the two religious observances are thus a day out of synth, at least this year.

Would it make sense for the sake of JW arguements that the jesus aka the lamb would be slaughtered on nisan 14 for passover on the 15th? I know they dont argue this, but it would seem to make sense based off of Leo's post from last year.

Are JWs the worst restaurant customers?
by Alfred in(a little background info before i ask my question...).
my sister-in-law (non-jw), who manages a popular chain restaurant near a kingdom hall, just found out that my wife and i have recently faded, so she decided to get something off her chest the other day... you guessed it: she wanted us to know that jws are the worst customers ever!
she then told us some really embarrassing stories about how jws would request a table for 15 to 20 people (after a sunday meeting) and then (when the bill came) some of the jws would start deliberating amongst themselves on whether or not the waiter was diligent or not (to justify the low tip he was getting anyway).

Tipping is very regional. Growing up in a resort town I got to see how that played out. I could see in our computer system exactly where people were from, and certain groups of people tend to be poor tippers. Lets just say I never got a got a good tip from anyone whos home adress was in boca rattan. Texans were fairly good tippers, but the rest of the south werent that great.
If you know the service industry code word for one group...."Canadians" are not the best tippers.(No not real canadians).

To Those of You Partaking at Home This Year. . .
by leavingwt in.
have you abandoned the wt idea of two classes of christians?
while still a believer, ray's books helped me to see that the idea of there being two classes of christians was a 'unique interpretation' of the watchtower society with no basis in scripture.

Never Forget the Sacrifice!!
by Diest induring this special week i wanted to take a moment to remind the world of a humble carpenter who started with nothing.
but because of his wholesome heart he was given a son through miraculous means.
the children of the world loved this son but his many enemies set out to capture and destroy him, but those enemies could not prevail and in the end, good conquered evil.

Never forget the sacrifices and lessons we were taught by Pinocchio!!!
