It was a pain in the arse, and it took valuable time away from my TV viewing having to prepare it. With the I intro of the computer and been able to cut and pasting, it made things more tolerable. Could pump a 5 min TMS in an hour or two.

if there is one thing that amazes me it is all the new ones that are arriving. Quite often it is the ones who I would least expect.

There biggest concern at the moment would have to be stemming the flow of child sex abuse. Just how big this will get, and the methods used to talk this away, only God knows. Although the sex abuse scandals are relatively unknown amongst the witness comunity at the moment, just how long they can keep this from the faithfull and how this will be received time will tell. It didn't end the Catholic Church. They are reacting to this new situation with articles on the demonic news media and speculation. Obviously they are concerned about it, and are bunking down for the ensuing storm of law suites, and bad media publicity.
The 2nd biggest issue would have to be the internet. Let's face it we all wouldn't be here, and talking about this if it wasn't for the internet. For someone who is in the early stages of fading, I still have some contact with JWs around the world, and these ties run deep. Already through the use of the internet and apostate sites I end up telling ones what is happening in their own countries, and what is going on organizationally, before they know it. I am finding it difficult to explain how I get all this information. If this an example of how quickly neutral information can travel then how much more quickly will negative information spread. The GB has just to get to were the game is at if they are wanting to survive. Well that's my take on it.

Missionaries to vacate all missionary homes
by seenitall inlatest news from a source (missionary in foreign land):.
no more missionary homes anywhere in the world.. all missionaries presently in missionary homes must vacate.
must get housing on your own / from the locals.. circuit and district overseers have moved into many of these former missionary homes.. reasons: liability, cost savings, real estate to be sold or used for other purposes.. needless to say, many of these longtime servants are very unsettled.

Yup confirmed. Realestate to be stripped and missionaries getting their arses kicked to the kerb. It's all true.

Fun dinner tonight with ex-JWs
by Hortensia ini got to meet some real live jwn posters tonight, they stopped here and we met for dinner.
i was nervous about it, but they are a lovely couple, very intelligent and fun.
i am sure i talked too much, it was all so interesting -- swapping stories about our jw histories and how we got out and what we're all doing now.

Slimboyfat=Well what can I say. I have read many of your posts and I have to say for the most part they are well written and informative. How ever (and this is a big however) I read on one of your posts reguarding an assembly you attended in Scotland. To be honest I got the impression that you were trying To be identified, and I even remember commenting on it, asking if you were wanting to be disfellowshipped. I thought that the things you mentioned were specific (e.g locations, people's names! and what you did), and now you have got this going on as well. Best to keep your mouth shut. Lesson learnt.
