Watchtower Trolleys With Added Bling
by cofty inmy wife and i were in edinburgh on saturday (did a ghost tour) and around dusk we passed two trolleys on the high street — aka 'the royal mile' — that both had two rows of led lights under the little shelves.
has anybody else seen this or is it a local innovation?
i'm happy to report their pimped-up trolleys were attracting no attention as usual.

I'm sure that KHs in Africa are built a substantial fraction of the cost of ones in 1st world countries such as the USA, UK, or Germany for example. You could probably build a KH in Africa for the price of a used car in the USA. One sold KH in a 1st world country could net 10-15 KHs in these lands. Just don't see that kind of growth in these area? Just look at the numbers in the report. -

"The Branch did not approve of us to get a video security system"
by James Jack inthis was the reply i was given by our coordinator at our recent kingdom hall security meeting.. he explained that they aren't allowed to buy any appliances or do any changes to the kingdom hall without branch approval.
"we put in our letter that a video security system could be purchased for around $600 locally and an app could be downloaded for the attendants to monitor the cameras what's going onoutside.
" they said;" such a system would not be needed in our area of the country, if standard protocols of security are followed as outline by the branch.

"road to nowhere" is on to something. In the next year or two, the org will probably require congregations to buy their "approved" security equipment and software at inflated prices for a "suggested" donation determined by the amount of publishers in the hall. Since halls are closing and congs are being merged, lots of pubs in a cong means lots of $ for the equipment and less equipment is needed because of less congregations are in place.

Potential draftees turning to Jehovah's Witnesses

It wouldn't be a difficult choice for me to make. Either 21 months of mandatory military service or becoming a JW with the possibility of being fully indoctrinated and messed up for the rest of my life. I'd choose the 21 months of service and a free life and mind, afterwards. Imagine sacrificing your entire life for 21 months. Thank goodness that everyone in SK doesn't feel that way. Otherwise, NK could just walk across the the DMZ and take over SK.

192-page books
by Fred Franztone inthis is my 192nd post, so i thought it'd be fitting to ask a somewhat banal question which i've occasionally pondered over the years.
does anyone know what's behind the wt's penchant for 192-page books?
is there some kind of logistical reason for this?
-

I always thought it was odd that everything that they had to include in a book could be done in exactly 192 pages??

Were You Close To Your Non JW Family?
by minimus ini was thinking of how little i know about my father’s side of the family.
i recently inquired about ancestry.com and i’ve come to the realization that even the closest sides of my family via my father, are unknown to me .
what a shame that jehovah’s witnesses kept us apart.

Before my family became Jdubs, we use to see my family a lot. We would visit my local aunt, uncle, and cousins almost monthly. We would drive about 6 hours to visit other aunts, uncles, and cousins. We even went on holiday trips together at times. We visited family in Florida, Wisconsin, and Texas. After their conversion and for the next 25 years, I can count on my hand the number of times that I saw family. It was usually for a funeral or wedding (only the reception or wake because the church was evil). I have 2nd cousins that I had never met. I probably would not have recognized my first cousins as well. It is sad how the WT encourages separation between unbelieving family members except when you should try to convert them. I regret those 25 years of indoctrination. -

Commercial airline pilots carry the same suitcases/briefcases for flight maps and technical aircraft manuals in case of an inflight emergency. I never understood why eldurs needed such large cases for "theocratic" litter-a-ture.

A few of my favorites:
Are chapped lips a major issue for pioneers? Extreme cold or heat sends them to the local coffee shop for most of the morning
Do I want my kid to be a walking billboard at school? This should get his ass kicked.
It's missing the 3 fold cord around their necks.
This will look real impressive if we ever do a quick build again.
Could there ever be an uglier piece of fabric?
They seller needs to understand that they need to lose the cross.
Show me where you were touched.
Do you also make matching nipple rings?
Now, this is "fake" news!
Just don't put it between your legs!

Yes, I have too much time on my hands.
