  Handing out candy

  by mikeypants in

  growing up my parents would barricade our home off by parking vehicles bumper to bumper - you would have to crawl under the cars or over the bumpers to get to our door.

  also, we would turn off all the lights and hide in the back room away from the street.. that was the norm for me.

  isnt that insane?

  Yep. Growing up, we would turn off all the lights and watch tv as low as possible. This was our 3rd Halloween trick-or-treating and 2nd time handing out candies. The kiddos had a blast.

  
  My son was Chucky and my daughter was an evil queen. Fun night!

  Has the WT ever said it's okay to steak rare?

  by neverendingjourney in

  i'm revisiting an old topic here, but this was a subject of much confusion for me when i was still a witness.

  i went to a spanish congregation in the u.s. and it seemed to be taken for granted by most that you needed to cook beef thoroughly to "get rid" of the blood.

  i was surprised when i learned that folks in the english speaking hall would order a steak medium-rare and think nothing of it.. it wasn't until after i left the witnesses that it started to occur to me that if the red fluid that was present when you'd cut the beef was blood, cooking it thoroughly wouldn't get rid of it, it'd just cook it and transform it into another color.

  I have never heard that before. I always remember hearing "as long as it is bled properly, then you can eat it."

  I just googled it and found this:

  By Dr. Mercola

  The red juice that often collects in a package of red meat is not blood, as many assume. Most of the blood is removed during processing and any that remains is usually contained within the muscle tissue.

  The red liquid, instead, is a mixture of water and a protein called myoglobin, whose purpose is to help ship oxygen to muscle cells. Myoglobin is deeply pigmented, which is why the more myoglobin a meat contains, the darker (or redder) the meat will be.

  From http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2014/10/25/myoglobin-red-meat.aspx

  anyone else watching this show?

  i'm fascinated by it.

  i have often thought about what it would be like if most people were gone.

  Its pretty funny. I think the main character, Will Forte, is much smarter than most active JW's. As you know, thats not saying much.
  Good show otherwise. I hope it comes back next season.

  (edited to add)
  

  As of April 8th, it looks like FOX renewed it for a second season.

  What would happen if you drop a fake check or bill in the donation box?

  by StarTrekAngel in

  what would happen if we started dropping fake check or bills inside the donation box of an assembly?

  i know, is a crime, but so is pushing someone to not accept blood and die.

  would it help skew the numbers enough if enough of us did it?.

  once when I was a teenager and helping with the final count of the donations someone left a 1 million dollar bill in the "local congregation" box. The MS said he had a pretty good idea who left it. I never found out. Nothing ever came of it. No local needs or anything anyway.
