i knew this wouldn't be easy.
first of all, our announcement was read in 2 congregations, since we had just switched about 2 years ago.
the one my parents and longtime friends are in heard it on thursday, how ironic?
If living a lie is how you are supposed retain your JW family and friends, then who the hell needs 'em?
If they truly love you and care about you and want you to be happy, they will respect your decision and will not shun you. Of course, it will take those TRUE family and friends to dig deep into their hearts and ignore the indoctrination they've received from the WTS over the years.
Hang in there, gurl!
if you could (just like that) change things about yourself, what would you be like?
I wanna be like Mike.

worship hall fire was arson

Kind of off subject but I dislike that expression "the friends" (the elder mentioned that phrase in the last paragraph of the article).
Me and badwillie were discussing that terminology just the other day and it's another catch-phrase that cunningly makes you believe that your only friends are other JWs. I didn't realize how non-JWs can be WONDERFUL, TRUE friends until I left the BORG myself.
To get back to the subject, there are lots of drawings in the JW literature that depict churches getting destroyed. No religion is exempt from vandalism. They'll get over it. I'm just glad no one was killed.
all are welcome to attend philly phest (apostafest) brunch on sunday, january 11.
this will be the 2nd phest in the last three years.
if you missed the first one, then you missed meeting flower and her son jaden, badwillie and mrs. badwillie, and yours truly.
Nikita- I will see you later today.
To all who are coming: I will be e-mailing you the restaurant info. If, after you receive the information, you need directions, please let me know ASAP!
i carry a few extra pounds but i generally don't overeat.
however, i enjoy a good meal.
but, the organization that says, "let us not judge others" is giving it's members free reign to judge those who are overweight (in the judger's eyes).
blondie-
We had a pudgy CO, too. Me and my friend nicknamed him 'Fat Freddy Dentler'.
Plus, he had televangelist hair.

he can't talk, he's not deaf, and he doesn't know sign language.

Isn't Foghorn Leghorn one character? He's the...I say...he's the rooster that is always antagonizing the dog and is constantly being persued by the cute little Chicken Hawk (to be eaten).

Okram-
Hagar also needs a good shave, a long bath, and a decent haircut.
Plus , KKLUV has a point: Are there TWO witnesses to his alleged charges?
it's an addiction that i have tried to stop since i was a young boy.
my friends and loved ones have tried to encourage me to quit, but i just can't.
when i used to attend meetings, i would feed my addiction right there in the kingdom hall.
I crack for the fun of it yet I am also addicted. I have to constantly crack my knuckles.
Also, I ALWAYS have to crack my toes before I put my shoes on!
Once you go crack you never go back.

This just in: J.R. Brown was seen out and about on Christmas day. He was seen trying to give a "witness" to good ol' Santer Claus.
You owe me 20 bucks!

gumby...AGREED! It did seem very positive. Perhaps to be balanced the reporter could have asked a few potential householders how THEY'D feel if some JW knocked on their door Christmas morning.
