today i was in the main office of my apartment complex.
when i was walking out i stopped one of the workers and told him that i had lived here for over a year and never once saw a jw.
i jokingly asked if they had some kind of strategy they used to keep them away.
Yeah it's a bit mean, but it's the blokes fault...if he'd kept his damn records up-to-date.
This reminds me of a story I heard - in the 50's in England, housewives used to tip their dirty bucket water all over the witnesses from the second floor! I'd pray for the ground to swallow me whole if that happened to me!
You've been a BAD boy, go to MY room
Flashback: I'm 10 again and I'm playing with my Barbie cutouts!!!!!
Thanx for the fun site and memory

here is my granddaughter and daughter asleep on my couch.
she says she feels so relaxed and peaceful when she's down here.
it must be true because she fell asleep in a few minutes when she layed down on the couch with emily.
That is so sweet!!! They look so vulnerable, yet at the same time, completely safe and comfortable within their environment!
Bet yer a great grandparent too!
go out witnessing and have such a really bad day - doors slamming in your face, sun pounding down, elder and wife perfect have placed 100 mags in the last half hour while your struggling to shove a tract under the door of not at home after not at home and you're standing at a door with the most obnoxious, smallminded half-wit, who won't let you get a word in edge-wise - that you just loose yer cool and go off, i mean really go off?.
i'm curious cause apparantly alot of witnesses used to do this and that's why you now have to 'qualify' to become an unbaptized publisher!.

.....does anyone remember the "girl with the green eyes" on that national geographic cover (taken in 1984)?
they've found and identified her, after 17 years.
i thought it was pretty interesting, anyway.
I luved my mum's National Geographic mags....they used to fascinate me...especially the african tribal women, their breasts were mesmerizing! I remember this girl...it's great she's still alive healthy...her eyes are absolutely haunting!
hey .
this is katie.
i have to move out of where i am living by the end of march.
I'd just like to wish you all the best. If you were in oz, then sure, I'd have a roof over yer head and a warm, safe bed! Make sure those Californians take care of you hun.
If you eva feel like telling us why you hate the jw's then go rite ahead. Nothing shocks us anymore when it comes to them!

i was burnt in the worst possible way by the jw's and i'm slowly easing my way back, meanwhile the unrelenting guilt plays at me constantly.
this is due to my green habits.
but i'm working on it.

But I'll mention you in my prayers and pray that Jehovah shines his spirit on you again...all you need to is ask and it'll be given to you. What I've learnt from this is that you've REALLY got to want it!
I don't agree with their shunning policy as it only alienates you further! In my case it was their shunning that made me leave! It hurt deeply that I was no longer a person good enough to associate with these 'clean' people. They did far worse than my drinking for relief! If they'd just cared enough to ask why I was drinking, why I was on a downward spiral and helped me get out of it instead of instantly thinking I had double-life, well maybe I'd still be in the truth...
Yes I see the hypocrisy now, but I focus on my own salvation now, on pleasing Jah myself and not worrying about pleasing anyone in the congregation as they are as imperfect and picky and gossipy and judgemental as me!
Anyway.....I just wanted to encourage you. That was the whole purpose of my post...but somehow...in my dribble I lost sight of the goal!
Just my thoughts.....

sometimes, all that info can give you jw overload.
there's a hell of a lot of things that apostates and the such do other than focus on the wt.
man [8>] they do have a life besides.. it's good to get to know others anyways.
All hail King Farkel of the JW discussion board! Yardiff - please!
Make luv not war, I just wanted to make sure Farkel hadn't been offended by anything. I shouldn't bother by the reaction I get from him!!!!!! Lordy!

So that makes him an authority and gives him the right to bag us about what we choose to discuss!
Give me a break!!!!!!!!!!!!
