i'm pretty sure i'm right about this.
i haven't been in the org for a long time, but it seems that whenever someone sneezes, you are not supposed to say "bless you" ///// why is this so??
i personaly don't see anything wrong w/saying bless you !
I always said Gesundheit when I was a JW. It means GOOD HEALTH in German.

hello friends!
my husband and i have this friend we have known for probably 17 years or more.
he was an elder for many years but stepped down .
Thank you for sharing your story. Your friend is very lucky to have friends, like you, to turn to.
This is just one indication and example that even long time elders can see how the organization
really is. May he always have the support and strength to face any difficult times that may come
his way.

question from reader's.
my husband and i took the kids to the local dairy queen.
which is the proper term to use?
Growing up in Upstate NY, we called them chocolate covered ants. Now that I'm living in Massachusetts, I call them sprinkles.

"thrilling convention"...only took notes of comments / observations not including:.
- typical "gloom and doom" (real heavy since 9/11).
- "do more" (especially as some one of a kind robotic drones demonstrate).
Thanks for the info proandcon. Of course any difficult trial is considered a test of their faith from Jehovah. Either that or Satan is tempting them...

Recently, my JW dad went to Portland, Maine district convention, too. He told us that sisters were helping to direct cars for parking. (Brothers were directing more difficult areas.)
Does anyone know if this is true? Do you think that there are less interested brothers willing to perform this duties?

dawn started the post, "to lotus - what needs to change.
" sf responded to that post by exposing lotus through activity on another website.
(From a female:) Matching bra and panties. Sorry, no thongs for me they feel like dental floss riding up your butt!

having dabbled in jw's, hypnotherapy, psychotherapy, acupuncture, regression analysis and also having researched scientology, i found that this particular science had the most beneficial effect by far: http://www.healer.ch/chakras-e.html.
englishman..
As a gift, my ex-boyfriend gave me a Chakra massage. I didn't know much about it at the time, because my JW thinking thought this might be harmful in spirituality. The website is very helpful in explaining about Chakras in easy to read format.
Thanks Englishman!

last night 3 congregations met at the assembly hall for the memorial.
there were just a little over 800 there which really surprised me.
in past years every congregation around here usually had at least 300 in attendance.
Yes, attendance was down in the hall we went to, also. We arrived way too early. This was the first year the hall shared with a dance studio, there was dancers still rehearsing their number. We were all laughing because all what you could hear was "Hey, Big Spender...." being played over and over again. It was such a wierd and funny moment!
