How big was your book bag?
by 2escaped lifers in.
all you ex-"brothers": was this just in my area (north alabama), or do any of you remember there being an unstated, but real nonetheless, pecking order amongst the brothers that correlated the size of your meeting briefcase/bookbag to your level of spirituality?.
don't know why i was thinking about this today.... brandon

I think that some of the "older men" have been listenting too much to "Coast to coast with George Norrey". I think that they have taken the hints regarding Planet X coming soon...

Underlining the answers in the Watchtower magazines
by JH in.
i found it funny how some people would literally underline just about everything in the watchtower magazine.
the more the magazine was underlined and notes were written, the more a person looked spiritual.. did it ever happen that you didn't read your watchtower magazine, and you underlined just about anything just to look as if you read it?.

Ahh... talk about flashbacks....
Yes, i used to have to do a 30 sec. underline...you know how prying mother's eyes were. I would "study" it in my bedroom, come out for an occassional watchtower book (to look like i was doing research), and disappear in my room. My tv had earphone input, so i could listen and watch it in quiet...lol

Have you ever noticed that JW's have a particular hard time with driving? Let me clarify.
I work for a Police Department that has a civic center where there are circuit assemblies held usually once a month..(give or take a few weeks. They are always around). Anyhoo, I cannot count on my fingers and toes how many accidents I have had to work involving JW's. How do I know they are JW's? Usually the songbooks flung across the road, or watchtower magazines, or the occassional tape in the tape player gives me the hint.
I also have had more JW's curse and swear after being involved in an accident then any other denomination. I think I really need to keep statistical track. I remember in particular a young boy dressed up, driving a nice Ford F150 Dooley, made an improper right turn coming out of a local fast-food joint and smacked a small volkswagon beetle. Well none the less, the guy in the VW bug is bleeding, and the JW is cursing up a storm about how his parents are going to f-ing kill him. I told him to be quite and mind his tounge. That I don't appreciate hearing words like that. (that was really for a point to embarrass him about his behavior because I f-ing curse all the time.). Well his dad shows up. He makes matters worse. Ya know, the type with the power trip, probably an elder. He came up asking me all sorts of questions. Most of them the normal type. Until he started to get an attitude with me about who was at fault and the wrecker service. Ok, I admit, I probably was a little edgy about the situation to begin with, but I was really putting on the poker face. (I was edgy because I had to assist with a serious injury accident earlier that morning involving a witness driving H.U.A. (Head Up Ass) Btw, in that crash the woman had no insurance.
I told him that the vehicle was going with the wrecker service because there was no way to drive it away, due to brake failure. I then casually (he he) admitted the wrecker service would require $176.00 in cash in order to get the vehicle out of tow. LOLOLOL...sorry, I have to laugh because his son demolished the VW Bug because he failed to look where he was going. So he started turning red in the face, when another officer jumped in and started to tell him where to put the attitude, or we'd find a place to put it, in the local jail facility. Of course, it was nice to know that when myself and the other officer were consulting each other near his patrol car, he was saying "She's a Jahovie, She's a Jahovie!". He knows that I am an ex-jw. Well, the other officer left to go to the hospital, because the other driver was transported by ambulance. Well to get to the point, the elder guy winds up leaving with his wife and son, after hassling the wrecker guy.
Okay, I know my post is extremely long, I haven't posted in a long time.
Back to the orginal question, is it me, or are JW's usually bad drivers?

UK Gun Laws: Possession = 5 Years Imprisonment.
by Englishman infollowing the deaths by shooting of 2 teenage girls last week, the uk government is speeding through even tighter gun controls than ever before.. already, high court judges have been told to impose a minimum 5 year jail sentence to anyone found in possesssion of a hand-gun in a public place.
also, consideration is being given to outlawing replica firearms as well as air powered weapons.
much is being made of the violent lyrics sometimes contained in rap - music which appears to often endorse gun culture.. see:http://news.bbc.co.uk/ for full story.. englishman..

Ok... I HAVE to put my two cents in....
In the state of Georgia, crime statistics have significantly lowered since carry concealed permits were inacted. I love my handguns, rifles, and shotguns. I guess that is why I live in Georgia. Georgia does not require any registration of any handgun, shotgun, or legal rifle you purchase.
If you don't like handguns, then don't carry or own one. Oh, and when the cops show up to shoot the felon that is holding a gun to your head, ask us to put our guns down, since you are so adamit in your beliefs.
