Does walking out of the ladies room with my skirt tucked into my pantyhose count?
Or how about this one... at the district convention, my zipper broke on my dress. And it was the kind of zipper that went from my ass, all the way up my back. =)

i hate informal wittnessing.
ya'll need to understand how embarresing it is for a 20 year old socialite like myself to be outside in the middle of the summer with a handful of wt magazines in my hand in front ff the 7-eleven or gasp

funny what was important to you to begin with in leaving the collective.. .

anyone else get one of these letters?
if you opened a paypal account between october 1999 and january 2004, you may be entitled to a payment from a class action settlement.. .
c. balance after payment of long form and short form claimants.
Yeah I got one last. I usually don't pay any attetion to these class action lawsuits. I could care less whether or not I get my share of 13 cents.
recently onacruse made a comment regarding why many jws remain jws.
a lot of people look at religion as a way to get together and be social with one another.
let's face it, people need "friends".
Bondie said
I left because I had no "friends" or social life as a JW.
My entire life as a teenager was exactly that. I had absolutley no freinds or social life as a JW. Once I got out on my own at age 19, I had no communication skills, no social skills and no friends. I had to start my life over at age 19.
we've learned so much about each other and i thought i'd toss this out atcha.....
i'm five feet tall (or short---however you see it :-) and wondering how tall you are!
annie
5'-10"
what i mean is according to the society, there are a number of persons that are "technically" "inactive" yet are viewed as jws still.
i'm sure that i'm viewed as a witness still because i am not df'd or disassociated.....what about you??
?
Technically, I'm still a JW.

when i look into your eyes.
i can see a love restrained*.
All around me are familiar faces Worn out places, worn out faces Bright and early for their daily races Going nowhere, going nowhere Their tears are filling up their glasses No expression, no expression Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow No tomorrow, no tomorrow And I find it kinda funny I find it kinda sad The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've ever had I find it hard to tell you I find it hard to take When people run in circles It's a very, very mad world mad world Children waiting for the day they feel good Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday Made to feel the way that every child should Sit and listen, sit and listen Went to school and I was very nervous No one knew me, no one knew me Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson Look right through me, look right through me And I find it kinda funny I find it kinda sad The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've ever had I find it hard to tell you I find it hard to take When people run in circles It's a very, very mad world ... world Enlarge your world Mad world
okay... i may act like a hick from a small-town... but... i'm curious about something.. what is the 'proper' amount that one is supposed to 'tip' the gal at the salon.
the one whut cuts the hair.. i've never really had a good idea... and i know that i look like a dufus... fumbling and mumbling... as i hand a dollar or two to the gal.. now... if i'm supposed to be giving something like $5.00... forget it!
i usually hand over 1 or 2 dollars - depending on how well i feel that they did.
"Try $125 for a cut and color . . . every 5 weeks"
Yep, thats about what I pay for a cut, color and a wax.
jwbot's dream house
i want that house.
after doing the budget, mike and i could put a down payment on a house loan.
If this is your first house, my advice is to buy a pre-existing home. My husband and I just finished building our dream last month. $250k was our original budget. Total cost to build the house and buy the land: $400,000.00. Everything went over budget. The cost of lumber and osb nearly doubled from the time we applied for our building permits till the time we broke ground. Everything from the permits, to final inspection was a huge hassel. Nothing went smoothly. Building a house is very, very time consuming, and will drain you financially for a while. The bad thing about a construction loan, is everything that goes over budget, has to come out of your pocket.
It took us a total of 2 years from the time we applied for our permits till the day we moved in. But I have no regrets. Its a bueautiful house, with a great view, and its exactly how I wanted it. But I will never, ever go through building a house again.
