mevirginia,
You are right, there is no mention of what the JWs will be doing. I guess that leaves this post open for some good ideas as to what JWs will be doing in the year 2035.
Here's a start: Watchtower Bible & Tract Society use printing presses to publish 'MAD Magazine'.

An old man was sitting on a bench at the mall. A young man walked up to the bench and sat down. He had spiked hair in all different colors: green, red, orange, blue, yellow. The old man just stared. The young man said sarcastically, "What's the matter old timer, never done anything wild in your life?"
Without batting an eye, the old man replied, "Got drunk once and had sex with a parrot.
I was just wondering if you were my son." -

PRISON VS. WORK
Just in case you ever got the two mixed up. This should make things a bit more clear. . .
IN PRISON...you spend the majority of your time in an 8X10 cell. AT WORK...you spend the majority of your time in a 6X8 cubicle.
IN PRISON...you get three meals a day. AT WORK...you only get a break for one meal and you pay for it.
IN PRISON...you get time off for good behavior. AT WORK...you get more work for good behavior.
IN PRISON...the guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you. AT WORK...you must carry around a security card and open all the doors for yourself.
IN PRISON...you can watch TV and play games. AT WORK...you get fired for watching TV and playing games.
IN PRISON...you get your own toilet. AT WORK...you have to share with some idiot who pees on the seat.
IN PRISON...they allow your family and friends to visit. AT WORK...you can't even speak to your family.
IN PRISON...all expenses are paid by the taxpayers with no work required. AT WORK...you get to pay all the expenses to go to work and then they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners.
IN PRISON...you spend most of your life inside bars wanting to get out. AT WORK...you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars.
IN PRISON...you must deal with sadistic wardens. AT WORK...they are called managers.

"Yep, 3 males, 2 Females," he replied.

WHAT"S THE FUNNIEST THING YOU'VE SEEN???
by minimus ini remember years ago after giving a public talk, the sister who was playing the piano had to rush to the front of the hall to get ready to play the opening song for the watchtower study.
what she didn't realize was that her dress was neatly tucked in to her pantyhose for all to see,since she had just come out of the bathroom.
the attendant was trying to literally run behind her to tell her of what she was exposing, but couldn't keep up with her.

I remember a few very funny experiences. I remember an elder that went to the bathroom before his talk and when he got to the podium the front of his pants were wet where the zipper was.
I remember an elder that was giving a talk and the top of the podium tipped over and dumped his Bible and notes on the floor.
I also remember during the Memorial one year an individual went to the restroom and must have took a monster dump because when he came out the smell permeated most of the KH.

BRAIN DEAD KINGDUMB WITNEESES
by minimus init truly amazes me to see how so many jw's are brain dead.
i spent the last few days with some witnesses and they complained about this elder, that congregation,these rules that are enforced in one congregation but not another, how truly boring the meetings are, how holy spirit could not have appointed brother so-and-so.
i heard how an elder in a nearby congregation is really a thief and a liar.

mimimus,
I have been out of the WT borg since 1989. It is no surprise to see that very little has changed as far as the people and their lack of discernment and abililty to see beyond the forest as well as taking an honest look at themselves and what they believe.
