i couldn't think of a more descriptive yet short title.. the thread about kh cleaning stories got me thinking about my old kh and the story behind it.
thought i'd share it and hopefully some of you will add your own.. there's a couple of folks here who may know a little about my old hall of their own and may hopefully correct any misinformation i may provide or even add their own stories.
like most others, that old hall had actual apostates (ingram i think their name was) and its own (what hall doesn't, right?
Hey Bonezz, I know what you mean. I was raised in Hawaii...we loved sitting under the fan. At night, the bugs would be out, full force. We would have to shoo away the geckos and flying cockroaches.
We were so happy to visit the other Kingdom Hall, a few miles away, that got air conditioning!
i went out of town this past weekend.. i was almost home sunday afternoon and when i rounded the corner to the cul-de-sac where i live, it just so happened that the wife was getting home just ahead of me.
the garage door was going up and the car was pulling in.... in the back seat, kneeling in her car seat, was my baby (i meant to scold her for wiggling out of the strap and buckle like that!!
i must've forgot.
Tee, I know what ya mean. Even to this day, when I get birthday cards or presents, I'm uncomfortable, as if too much attention is being paid to me.
I'm sorry to hear about how your dad treated you.... wow, you sure are the total opposite! You have alot to be proud of.
Have a great weekend!

ok all you lucky people, this is the big one!.
every july, around about the time of my birthday, her ladyship and myself host the barbie to end all barbies.
fun, frolics and fizz are the order of the day, this is the social event, places are more in demand than tickets to watch england play (that's artistic licence btw), even dub in the pub turned up last year.. originally started 10 years ago to get the local pubs regulars together, i usually invite about 40 from the pub, about 15 little & big hooper's, and i am now throwing open an invitation for about 15 - 20 posters from this site to join in the fun.. the event will, weather permitting, take place on sunday july 21. meet at the waverley pub, severn road, weston - super - mare between 12noon and 3pm.
I'd love to come!
Sounds like you know how to party! It's a long way from Alaska though!
that is my current favorite phrase or retort when wishing to reinforce an obvious statement or question, like, "is the pope catholic?
", "does a bear poop in the woods?
", "is the sky blue?
As you know, chickens are quite versatile... unlike many male humans (to their dismay).
p.s. Bonezz, caught your reply about using erections to hammer nails in the new system... if my monitor doesnt work today, its your fault! I've spit water all over it laughing!
when i was a kid....i used to look at the wt illustrations of paradise conditions and would day dream about life in the new system....i later used this same technique (shame on me) to brain wash bible students.
however...as i grew up lol (apparently!
) the illustrations changed....and became more modern.
Yes there will be erections but they will be used to hammer the nails into your new home.
OH my God ...LOLOLOLOLOLOL.... I just spit water all over my screen!
Thanks...next time give me some warning!
Too funny!!!!
i used to love getting my jw.com notifications that someone replied to my post!
it was the only way i could keep up the different coversations.... has anyone else noticed they've stopped?
i dont get them anymore.
Star, thanks for the link. I didnt know if anyone else noticed..but it was driving me crazy!
Btw, I'm still not getting any either... er .. um... emails, that is!
any outstanding prayers that you can remember / recall?.
we had one brother here who was renowned for his very long prayers, sometimes running to as much as 15 minutes in length.
congregational members would have to leave halfway through to catch taxi's etc, he was a dear old soul though, in his younger days before he kicked the bucket, he was a wheelwright, probaly one of the last of his particular craft, repairing horse drawn carriages.. another brother at the convention was known for the shortest prayer, he just said thankyou 3 times and that was it.. once we had the co visiting, george hilton his name was, cheerful old sod from yorkshire, it was the aux pio and reg pio meeting.
EVERYONE NOW
Lazurus lay sleeeeeping... in a cold stone cave......
