Generally Speaking Do You Trust Your Government?
by minimus inas a us citizen, i am usually a bit skeptical of what comes out of the mouths of government officials.
often they may speak the truth but i’m not convinced of whatever they are saying as being 100% true.
do you believe your government implicitly?

2020 Memorial - No Need To Actually Have The Emblems
by pale.emperor inover at jw talk they're saying because they're having to hold the upcoming memorial at home, they dont need to actually have the emblems.
apparently, listening to or watching the talk is the thing that counts.. "do this in rememberence of me" apparently means watching tony morris on your phone give a talk.. this begs the question... "what's the point?
".

From what I have heard from some Bethelites, they are now going to use touchscreens for the Memorial, similar to ordering from fast food restaurants such as McDonalds.
You open the screen and click "Arrived". You can download the opening song and prayer onto your mobile device. Then you click on the "I agree with the Song and Prayer" checkbox.
You then get a screen where it asks if you have read the Memorial outline, similar to terms and services. You click the Yes box.
Then you are asked what you would like to order. You have the option to select Wine or simply continue. If you select Wine, you are then asked if you would like to make it a combo, including the Bread. You select your option. If you get the combo, you listen to two prayers. Then you get the checkbox that you have heard both of the prayers.
You then click the Continue button. You then check the box that you have listened to the final song and closing prayer.
You are then directed to another screen with a suggested donation option and your credit card number. If you select No, it simply loops back and asks you the same question over and over.
After donating, an email is automatically sent to your local PO and you receive a nice thank you note.
That is apparently the new process.

Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread
by Simon inthis topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.
latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.
the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

They're setting up a two hundred bed field hospital a few miles from my house.

Try to look on the bright side, as I try to do.
After this virus thing passes, these will be places for a lot of the homeless to go.

Baseball caps are so cool - older men look so much better in them.
LV101 ...
Yes, I stand corrected.
A baseball cap is cool compared to an orange painted Christmas wreath glued to your head.

Even in my days as a good little dub, I never really understood the whole Memorial thing once the "partakers" we had died off (we had about six when I was a kid).
In the Bible, everyone who Jesus invited partook. He didn't invite people to watch. And he certainly did not invite "people off the street" to come in and watch.
What they now call the "special talk" before/after the actual Memorial could be the Memorial talk for the majority at the normal Sunday or Saturday meeting.
If there are partakers, an elder (substituting for the role of Jesus) goes to the home of the person on the actual night, reads the verses, prays, and the person(s) partakes.
To me, that would be more biblical and far more respectful for the event than what has now become more of a red carpet event when everyone is watching who is wearing what new dress.

If we can do it at home I will partake.
I'll do the wine part but I wonder if I can substitute tortilla chips instead of the bread?

Some here will remember Soupy Sales. I remember him when I was a little kid.
He could contort his face like Lett.

How can you tell when a politician is lying? Their mouth moves.
Or they paint some white shit around their eyes and their face and hair orange.

Meet the greatest heavyweight champ of all time
by LoveUniHateExams inand no, it wasn't muhammad ali.. by most objective measures, the greatest heavyweight champ of all time was a guy called joe louis.. he reigned for nearly twelve consecutive years (june 1937 - march 1949) and made a record 25 successful consecutive title defences.
since 1949, every heavyweight champ has tried to break or even match this record.
all have failed.

It would really be interesting to see two "punchers" in their prime, Joe Louis and Mike Tyson, fight each other.
Imagine what they would charge to watch that on pay-per-view!
Note: Imagine in the new system when we will all be in our prime and they can schedule such an event with a suggested donation for the entrance fee.
