suggestions for a bird lover

by sowhatnow in

i want to know id anyone has an inexpensive easy way for me to install some sort of sound system so i can hear the outside birds in my house in winter.

i have to doors closed its like 30 degrees outside, i stepped out to toss some bread crumbs and heard so many birds outside, and i would love to hear those birds in my kitchen while i eat.

would a cheap baby monitor work ?

Be careful what you ask for sowhatnow. I had googled the cardinal song bird which gives you different songs the cardinal will sing and I couldn't get rid of him. Every time I would play the song he would come to the windows and sing nonstop. Him and his mate plus another couple had moved into our bush for the summer and had their babies there.

Once I moved I thought I would try it on a pair of ravens that made our barn their home and it worked on them as well. Now we have them around the house every time we play the call. When it comes closer to the fall I stop playing the song birds that have to migrate or they tend to stick around which I don't want.

Thank you, Simon. Until you have walked in someone's shoes especially when your a child and your parents are suppose to protect you from such wickedness and they don't, you bet some of us are hurt. Just picture a ten year old child watching their parents fight physically in front of you because one will follow the org on the no blood issue while the mother has gone into a deep depression until she takes her life a few years later on the very same date her son passes away. And your only ten, and your brother that is dying is eleven so your about to lose your play mate for life. All because of no blood. I hope none of you will ever experience that.

The fact that I had to leave home at fifteen not know anyone in the world because you tell your mother that your father tried something on you and she tells you the only thing to do is leave home. So here I was at fifteen hitchhiking into the closest town and staying in a van at the auto wreckers not knowing who to trust or where my next meal was going to come from let alone finishing my education which I did later on. Honestly, I don't know how I did it.

Why are any of us on this site? To me angry and bitter is posting pics and making fun of the witnesses and name calling. Do you really think jw's will want to read here. I came here because people like the Searcher, Blondie, Mary ect ,,, were opening my eyes to the falsehoods of the org. and are mature about it. I get angry when I see this and want to share it with my older sister whom I will never be able to talk to ever again or my two other brothers or all my nieces. All in the name of jw.org.

I've earned the right to be sad, angry and bitter if that's what some think but next time you post make sure you choose your words wisely. We didn't ask to be abused and manipulated by an organisation which my parents were also under their influence. Having your childhood, parents and siblings stolen from you as well as fake friends in the org was not what I had signed up for and never will again in the name of god! All I wanted was a sense of belonging that I had taken away from me for such stupid reasons.

Why are you on an EXjoho site like this one promoting your blog which encourages people to want to find out whether all those lovely things you write are really true about the johos.? Especially when you have read all the hurtful things that have been done to all of us. I don't see that written on your blog.

All the suicides(my mother) that have gone on. My god, there was another one on this site just this week. Are you really that senseless or what. Or the fact that we have lost loved ones(my brother) through no blood policy. Or the pedos(my father) that have injured little children.

Please go join them. Sounds like you would fit right in!!!!!!!!

Any time you didn't know what the h#ll to do and just let it ride?

by Esse quam videri in

i was conducting the theocratic ministry school years and years and years and years ago and announced the #3 speaker up to the platform.

this of course was the sister/sister talk at the table.

up comes the publisher, sister so-and-so and her 25 year old daughter as her householder.

Three years ago we had an elder's fifteen year old daughter get pregnant and the father was a fourteen year old "worldly" boy. The rest of the elders let him stay on as an elder until they saw that this guy's pregnant daughter had no intentions of marrying the boy. All this was going on right under the elder's roof. This elder even gave the prayer on memorial night.

His daughter would come to the hall dressed up in a short yellow dress with black fish net stockings and six inch stilettos. She wasn't baptised then but after having the kid, she got baptised and is now the great do gooder spiritual example for the congregation.

I always found the ones that are really messed up and are elders kids get away with murder.

Dictionary definition of "Elder"

by The Searcher in

see under - "accomplice" and "complicit".. noun: accomplice - a person who knowingly helps another in a crime or wrongdoing, often as a subordinate.

.

adjective: complicit - involved with others in reprehensible or illegal activity.. i'll bet there are a lot of them who are feeling exactly like this - but have no guts to do the right thing!

Holy crap, The Searcher

You must have met my judicial meeting elders! They covered over a guy whom they reinstated while he was still smoking and drinking, the guy also smashed in his wife's new lincoln by hand while drunk, he also waved a loaded hand gun in her face threatening to blow her face off, got a high school employee to forge his wife's name on a legal document, his father had to call the cops because he threatened to kill him, he does not own a gun license or a special license for his revolver, committed adultery. The elders new all of this and hid it. When it came to my jc meeting, they asked me what was bothering me and as soon as I asked why they didn't do anything with the idiot they changed the subject and wouldn't let me bring his name up. Instead, all five of my accusers were his relatives who couldn't remember anything and a fillin co/elder who admitted that he had lied. This is the same fillin co who's wife's mother was charged by her own two kids for sexual assault. All in the congregation of Elmira Ontario. Hope your reading this watchtower.

I had walked in to the service department at Georgetown, Canada with my transcript as well as my six hour taped recorded judicial meeting and they wouldn't touch it except I get a letter stating to come back to Jehovah. So glad I'm out as well as my husband who also did nothing wrong. They truly fit your meaning of elder. But so does the words Wicked Assholes, Liars, Uneducated Bums and so on and so on.

So now I understand why they were going into these poor countries where there is money. They are using these poor countries as a money maker to show they need more money to help these poor/victims. Filthy swines!

Yes, won't you please give right now and help poor Johnny receive those braces that he so desperately needs in order to walk six miles to fetch some water for his other ten orphaned siblings. That will be coming next or the viewers will be saying look how the jw's are helping without asking for any money. Yeah, right, either way you slice it, it smells like watchtower shit!

They are no different than those other shows that come on TV on the weekends exploiting poor vulnerable people turning them into watchtower victims while the goons look well fed wearing their pinky rings and expensive costumes.

Building Work

by truthlover in

has there been anything in writing sent out to the elders, co's re the stopping of the "ww building work yet?.

no one has mentioned anything at cong level but it has been mentioned about the bethelites being sent tot the field as of january - canadian bethel is being reduced by 40% and the ones remaining have been told they will have to do work themselves, i.e.

food and cleaning.... .

label licker

Truthlover, I know for sure a young guy that just got into bethel full time beginning October 1st this year and his job is washing dishes.

There were thirty older couples let go and were told if anyone asks why they have left they were to say they felt it was a good decision on the part of the GB and that they deserve their backing. The ones we knew were almost seventy-five years of age.

The guy is truly a bum who never wanted to work but to look for a girl who had an education that would support him. When that failed, he thought he would try bethel. Very lame brain.

is this supposed to placate the ones who have been recently fired?

is this a sign of the aging jw leadership?

Hilarious! The interviewer says to call the branch if you have questions, that they are there for you and to help you. Wasn't there a watchtower article that said the opposite? That we are not to send in questions?

No doubt they are trying to look like shepherds more now that they have the whole world watching on about the Royal Commission and their pedo problem. Yeah, try calling the branch because you have been molested by one of their fine shepherds and see how the branch helps you.

When we took our manuscript of my six hour judicial meeting in to the Georgetown branch bethel service department, they never replied back until I posted what the elders did to me on jwsurvey and within two days (after six months of not hearing anything) I had received a letter from the branch telling me to return to Jehovah.

So glad we are far far away from them:)
