the chelmsford project in the uk has already come to a halt and every one has been sent home.
the bethel family in london is to be cut by several hundred.
my impression is that most ambitious youngster in the org dream of being involved with the building program.
I wonder if they lost some money in the Hedge Funds business.

there were many addressed to me.
for example, i once had a sister tell me i was gambling because i liked playing skill crane (the machine where you have to try to pick up prizes like stuffed animals) at the arcade.
i then fired back a her: "you saw the r-rated movie 'backdraft.
After fading for a couple of years I get a call from a brother asking me if the following rumor was true "We heard that you and your boys are watching pornography together, is it true?"
My response,...
"It certainly is not true!!!! You people think that a person has to have some insidious vice to be the reason to leave the organization. You don't think that there is a valid reason to leave. You think that everyone that leaves is into SEX, DRUGS or ROCK AND ROLL if they leave!!"
I go on to ask "Live action is not considered porn,.. right?"

a good source just just told me that at morning worship today that the governing body announced that a total of 1600 bethelites will be let get go and not transferred to warwich when the last property is sold in brooklyn and all kingdom hall building projects are on hold for at least a year so that all the focus will be on the preaching work.
Might lead easily into a a "If this congregation can meet up over at "x" Kingdom Hall,.. we could sell this KH and use that money to increase the funds of the coffers at Bethel to use to further the preaching work in other countries before the GT"

Dumplin,...
Is it possible to get a link to that cleaner picture without the chalk board? I would like to redo mine so that it is cleaner.

anybody see the new cartoon?
the girl has a quarter and is going to get an ice cream but then puts it in the contribution box instead.
the gb want to make sure they guilt and suck the kids meager allowances dry as well and prep them as they grow up to keep giving!
has anyone ever seen any articles on the appropriateness of plastic surgery for wittos?
just popped into my head at work and don't think i can ever recall this even being given a mention at the meetings or in the literature.
i guess it would fall into the same sort of bracket as tattoos, but then again looking at some of the mutton in our circuit it looks like they've indulged in this at some point.
But what will happen to all those titanium rods and screws holding bones together in the new order? Will they dissapear into think air? Will the same happen to all the sisters that have had breastusist implants? Will they slowly deflate infront of everyone in a roar of " I knew it!!"

with the official letter from the gb to all bodies of elders, a stylized jw.org banner can now be appended to kingdom hall signage.. what an auspicious year this will turn out to be for the organization!!.
among other outcomes, the "link" with the old, baggage-ridden "watchtower bible & tract society" recedes into the background.
furthermore, now you don't pretend to need feet trudging door-to-door - your worker is done at the press of a few directed fingers.
Many cities have a sign ordinance that limits the amount of square feet allowed for a "business" . Usually an entity will use up all of their allotment when th initially build the sign and would need to get an approval for additional sq footage to be added.
We know the kingdom halls will be adding these logos in the near future it might be nice to find out ahead of time from the department that over sees this from the city if there is a sign ordinance and if a church would need to be compliant with the ordinance.
