  I have two.

  I was about 16 my brother 14 we were sitting on a Sunday afternoon, everyone was full from lunch and exhausted from the last few days. You could have heard a pin drop. My brother was nodding off you know the head jerk readjust and nod off again, after about 20 or 30 minutes he jerked so bad he let out a yelp and fell off his seat, turned and looked at me and pretended I pinched his side.

  I didn’t care I was laughing so bad I had to leave. Dad kicked my ass and in for another elders meeting.

  The other was my brother had a part pretending to be someone at the door, when they introduced themselves he introduced himself as Mr. Hunt, Michael Hunt. Me and all our friends jaws hit the floor. The funny thing, he got away with it no one put it together.

  The first couple of years I did, Kind of like the movie I am Legend completely alone in the world. But for about 10 years or so I had a dream about a witness friend that died when we were 18. The dream was me holding him as a baby in the great "zombie attack". once or twice a year for a long time.

  Theocratic Sedition-I need that shirt.

  I worked in the Bosssert when I was a kid, worked in the sliver doing sheetrock and went to Paterson spent a month and a half up there in an alcoholic haze. I was 16 at the time and drank like a fish, it was crazy how much those kids liked to drink.

  That was about the time I kind of started asking all my questions about the Club.

  would you have not taken a blood transfusion or a transplant because the gb said it was bad?.

  would you have imitated the jws in concentration camps and died for your beliefs?.

  Would you have not taken a blood transfusion- at age 15 yes now no.

  Would you have imitated the JWs in concentration camps - Not for the witness's but for moral or principal reasons yes.

  Like I have aids and leprosy at the same time. In twenty years only two have been cool with me, this includes family. One didn't know I was df'ed until after a job was done, the other was an old friend that I had when I was a kid, hadn't seen or heard from each other in twenty three years saw him last month and he was very cool.

  Other than that I'm the disgusting freak!
