I remember Joan Cetnar telling me about that. She was one of the 15,000 in 1941. She was about 5 - she remembers that horrible speech that went along with it.

Special seating for children at an assembly
by Bonnie_Clyde inas i was reading an article in a 1941 wt about the 15,000 children from ages 5 to 18 sitting in a special section at the assembly in st. louis, i had a sudden flash of memory.
there was a more recent assembly where they asked the children to sit in a special section because they were directing a talk at the young people.
more i think of it, it might have when when they were releasing the "young people ask" book, and that was in 1989. if that was the year, my son was age 15. i tried to get him to move to that section and he refused.

What's the funniest thing you did lately?
by JH inyesterday i was right next to my living room closet, which is about 2 feet away from my neighbours living room closet, since we live on the same floor.
let me tell you that i can hear everything on her side and she can also hear everything on my side when we are this close to one another.. so, unexpectedly, i made a very loud fart, and about 2 seconds later i heard my neighbour fooling around in her closet, 2 feet away.
you guessed it, she surely heard my very loud fart

OMG - I think the scariest/funniest thing lately I did was letting my teenager drive me to the convenience store last night!

My teenager went to see it tonight and he enjoyed it. Don't know if that's a good gauge or not!

Who is the "Queen of the Apostates"?
by booker-t inthere was a post in the past that listed ray franz as the "king of the apostates" to flip the script who would you nominate as the reigning "queen of the apostates"?
my nominee would go to joan cetnar.
but to be honest joan is such a nice person that i had the pleasure of meeting at a ex-jws convention.

I vote for Joan Cetnar, because she has helped so many hurting ones thru the years. Remember, she and late husband Bill were disfellowshipped in the early 60's and really had no one to turn to...years later they got together with the late Walter Martin and then they started the ex Jw convention in Pennsylvania. Joan was a great niece of the founder of K-Mart; and lost her inheritance when she was disfellowshipped and became a Christian.
I vote for mouthy due to ability to snore at all hours and still deny she's doing it! LOL

He did fine, I let him drive me to a nearby convenience store - he did OK until near home, he drove off the road a bit; just a bit; but enough to make me say OMG - hence the title of this thread...
