maybe this was already covered here.
i've been absent a bit more than usual.. at qualcomm stadium, home of the chargers and the "special arrangement" with san diego which means they use the venue for free, you are not allowed to bring a tarp in the 80 degree sunshine, nor a large umbrella.. mercifully however, you may bring a small one person umbrella you can hold or perhaps vice to the seat, but if someone asks you to take it down, you are to oblige.
san diego is freaking out over this i can assure you.

earlier this morning, i posted off to the the institute of engineers an application for membership as an "engineering associate":.
- today being just over 40 years since the congregation's retards elders made me abandon my apprenticeship.. (in this part of the world, the pre-1975 hype was taken to that level.
not being content to prevent young persons attending university, they went one step further and treated with hostility any youngster who would "tie up five years of their lives" by entering into an apprenticeship.
Yay Bungi Bill!
Good mind . Good goals. Great future !

i don't mean you advised them and they changed their lives around, kind of saving a life.. i mean right before your eyes, right now, you had to do something to save a person or they would be dead.. how did it make you feel?
did it have any affect on you?.
forty years ago i was working on a construction site and a back-hoe had loosened a large boulder.
Hi Gma-tired2 Hi Flipper
I was out deep sea fishing with my dad. We were trolling. He was not wearing a life vest. I was standing next to him in the back of a 22 foot boat, when the boat, hit a wave and lurched. Dad lost his balance and was going over. I grabbed the back of his belt and held him, when he was in the air. Yes. I saved his life. My dad hated the water and was not a swimmer.

as the title says, please list what you find annoying with the organization..
Hi Forest Heathen... I like your name. : )
If you have the time why not start a new thread and tell us a bit about your self . Only what you feel comfortable with. After posting you have 30 minutes to edit or delete. You use the little yellow pencil on your top right to do that.
Oh, and Welcome to JWN!

come on, y'all.. sylvia.
Hi Nancy, I read all the books, too. Those books hold a special place in my heart.
The Mystery of the Tolling Bell was the first book I read. It is still my favorite.

i just came back from vacation with my sister who is in her mid 40s and is an active jw, regular pioneer of many years.
while away, during one of our conversations, it bacame clear to me that my sister is lonely and doesn't have a social life.
she's too old to be included in the plans of the younger generation and, as she is not married, doesn't get included in the "marrieds" set.
krejames ... WT is all about do what I say, not what I do.
They told JW children 75 years ago, not to get married or to have children.
They were to slave for the WT instead.
I know an 80 year old sister you would never guess was 80. She has never even kissed a guy.
She is waiting until after Armageddon to proceed.
She was a good girl. My heart could break for her, it is so sad.
She has always given quality gifts at wedding showers and baby showers and is very hospitable. Always green hand shakes to the CO, DO and pioneers.
How is she thought of in her congo and circuit?
Don't ask me, okay. It is too sad and not nice.
I feel for your sister.

wtf .
the st. louis archbishop embroiled in a sexual abuse scandal testified last month that he didnt know in the 1980s whether it was illegal for priests to have sex with children, according to a court deposition released monday.
archbishop robert carlson, who was chancellor of the archdiocese of minneapolis and st. paul at the time, was deposed as part of a lawsuit against the twin cities archdiocese and the diocese of winona, minnesota.

i was baptized in 1968. last meeting 2010. i have to say i was never 100% in.
there were times i absolutely believed, but i never really gave it my all.
never liked service, assemblies, meetings.
Unfortunately for me, yes, I was in 100%.
I questioned it once when I was 18.
When I went to a woman's shelter for protection from my ex who had been an Elder for 40 years, the kind ladies there asked me if I had ever done any volunteer work, or any community work.
-----> I am thinking... Let's see LoisLane has been a publisher since she was 7, baptized as an ordained minister (sorry I have to laugh here) lol at the age of 13. All the work I had volunteered to
do for free for WT because I thought I was doing good, helping my neighbors to gain... Everlasting life on a paradise earth!!!???
-----> Volunteer work? Community service?
I answered the only way I could with dignity and no hesitation, I said, no.

governing body member samuel heard talk -are you ready for the finishing line?.
so my witness "friend" plays this talk to show how near armagedon is.
his 18 y.o daughter said "it was scary" well shocking!
^^^^^ -----> Maybe with this new arrangement, getting rid of 80 year old COBE's, GB on the whole are swinging their ax for fellow member, GB Samuel F. Herd, born in 1935. The above OP
showing Herd doing a rant makes him seem, possibly insane.
