The Jungle Book
In The Heat of the Night
Raiders of the Lost Ark
hey guys,.
i'm out of the jws for 12 years now and stopped thinking about the whole thing a long time ago.. but recently, i wondered how jws deal with corona?
i've read on the forums that they suspended meetings and tried to hold them online.. but are they still doing field service?.
I heard from a friend nearby (North East England) that there had been jws going door to door delivering leaflets in her area yesterday. I don't know what the leaflet was as it was put in the bin straight away.
a while back, we had a saturday wedding reception for a brother and sister from our kingdom hall.
the reception ended at midnight.
most of us got home at around 1:00 a.m. our sunday public talk meeting started at 9:30 a.m. .
I'm sure I heard somewhere that brainwashing works better when the subject is drowsy.
besides the media center they are going to build in n.y. it's been noted they are also building one and a studio in australia.
there is no way donations can cover these massive projects.
so the money will have to come from the sale of the remaining halls.
I think that after a period of selling of as many buildings as they can, there will be a pause then new light will tell them to build new kingdom halls. All financed by locals of course. From what I've seen, they make a profit from new constructions as well as aquiring more real estate.
The Watchtower Building and Land Society are a property management company.
the kilbirnie congregation in scotland was "relocated" in january 2018 - almost 2 years ago - to the nearest kingdom hall a few miles away in irvine.
the reason given by london bethel was that kilbirnie kh was "scheduled for a refurbishment.
" how long does it take to initiate a kh refurbishment, for goodness sake?.
From what I've seen the LDC seems to work like this. A team, including several permanently employed members, moves into a region for around 5 years. They have houses bought or rented for them. Others are brought in as needed and put up by the local congregations. During the 5 years they do renovations and new builds. My guess is that Kilbirnie will be on a schedule somewhere. It's all a big money making venture of course and has taken ages to get going, but as Watchtower seems to have become a property management company you can be sure they will have plans for every Kingdom Hall.
so let me get this straight.
even though law enforcement has their hands full with illegal drugs and guns on the street, child traffickers, dangerous gangs and such.
they are going to now pool all their resources to confiscate bibles and religious literature?!
"Evidently" what the writer meant was that he who is touching our corporate assets is touching my eyeball.
2019-09-01--local design construction update.
all the descriptions for the files disappeared after i clicked (save).
there is the september announcements and reminders, 2020 convention dates, ldc newsletter, congregation analysis report, 2019 publications approved for discard, and congregation-convention assignments... https://docdro.id/bw85yom.
There's an interesting little change hidden there. Item 6 has the meeting attendance being sent with the report. As far as I know, it was only checked by the CO before. Maybe they are trying to identify even more potential congs to merge.
to me, breakfast can be served at any time of the day.
a local bar in my area serves breakfast all day long.
for 5 bucks you get 2 eggs any way you like, bacon sausage or ham with home fries and toast!!
Breakfast of Champions for me, as defined by James Hunt. And yes, it's great at any time of the day.
i see top uk jw lawyer richard cook is finally having to move out of his jw "grace & favour" house , currently for sale for a cool £2.75 million.

I knew Richard many years ago and he always seemed to be a decent guy. He is a long term Bethelite who went to Gilead a couple of years ago - he presented the class speech at the graduation shown on borg tv. My guess is that he is being groomed for "bigger" things - at least a position on the uk branch committee, maybe a move to Warwick.
Incidently, those very posh houses have had ordinary bethelites - janitors etc - also staying in them. My experience has been that system of bidding for rooms based on number of years full-time service is pretty fair.
None of which changes the fact that they are going to make loads of money from from selling the houses.
what would it be?.
mine would be "rocket man" by elton john.
