Fatso's in the congregations? Really? In America? Have you looked around lately? America as a whole is filled with tubby people. For example, me! I dropped 80 pounds during the pandemic...and I'm still a lard ass (although I weigh less now than when I graduated high school decades ago). JW or not, most people in this country should lose some weight.

Overweight Jehovah’s Witnesses
by minimus inwhat was your kingdom hall like when it came to overweight witnesses?
i remember counseling some people on their drinking habits.
a few snickered that if we were going to counsel them because they have had way too many at a wedding reception, what about very overweight witnesses that have a lifestyle of overindulgence?

I'm not sure what is meant by "support." Do I send the protesters money and weapons? No. Do I post Tweets or use other social media in support of the cause? No. Do I go stand on a local street corner with a placard of some sort? No. I do hope the events in Cuba do not end badly for those involved.

Did You Think The Capitol Riot Was Worse Than What Happened On 9/11?
by minimus inin my lifetime 9/11 was the worst thing that i can recall.
the effect it had was incredibly horrible!
almost everyone seemed to know someone that was either directly or indirectly affected by this diabolical act.

Not even close to 9/11. And when people talk about how bad things were in Washington DC on January 6th, they should pause and ponder how bad things would have been had Trump been reelected. The left would have exploded in rage and the riots and deaths and destruction would have been nation wide and sustained.

Why Is Nothing Being Done About Looters?
by minimus inlooting is happening everywhere like never before.
brazen thieves walk into stores and bring a bag with them and simply throw whatever they choose in the bag.
popular chain stores have closed in certain neighborhoods because it’s just not worth it.

When I'm driving 68 MPH on a 60 MPH limit road and meet a state trooper, I give it all up to Jesus. Or maybe I'm cursing.

I've dropped 70 pounds from my pre-covid high. Losing weight is fairly easy. Keeping it off is the tricky part. I speak from experience.

I've had a variety of bikes over the years. Currently have a H-D Heritage Softail. I used to ride a lot. I've travelled all over the USA and Canada by bike. But, alas, I'm getting older and the days of 5,000 mile road trips are most likely behind me. And I've tired of going on charity rides where the ride consists of 30 minute runs and 1 hour stops at some bar (not drinking much anymore makes it even more tedious). But, if the weather is half decent I'll fire up the scooter and go on a 200 mile ride to nowhere. The ride IS the destination.

one is the dramatic over the top person where a hangnail means you might have to get your finger cut off.. the second type is —who me, worry?
i’m not going to let too much of anything bother me unless it really is armageddon.. the third type is the person in between.

There are 3 kinds of learners:
1) Those that learn by reading.
2) Those that learn by watching.
3) Those that go ahead and pee on the electric fence.

Does Politics Affect Your Entertainment Decisions and Choices?
by minimus inif coke disturbed you because of a certain stance would you stop buying coke?
would you stop watching a sport if a certain view was politicized?.
would you boycott a certain product because you did not agree with the corporation’s opinions?

I quit drinking Coke but not for political reasons. I quit drinking Coke and all other sodas because, in my view, the product is little more than flavored poison.

Covid Vaccine Passports
by minimus inwhat do you think of them?
should a business or establishment require that you show proof that you have been vaccinated before they let you in?.

If a private business wants to make some sort of vaccine proof a requirement of receiving services, that is their business. If the government at any level - Federal, State, County, or Local - is making proof of vaccination a condition of receiving services, I have a giant problem with that concept. The logistics of such a scheme would be impossible, too. Can you imagine what would happen if the Feds mandated gov't approved vaccine ID's overnight? Suddenly 250 million people would show up demanding the card and the system would crash. If the policy makers wanted this to be a requirement, it should have been implemented from the beginning.
I was given a card when I had my first shot so I suppose I have proof of vaccination. In a few minutes I could make a reasonable fake of the same card, print it, and hand it out. In reality, the card I was given means nothing. I also had to show ID. I have no idea who the clinic shares the personal information with.
