When I was visiting my parents yesterday I noticed that where the Watchtower calender had hung for so many years in my teens there now hung a "Weezer" calender. I think many R&F dubs are getting sick of the cheesy ones put our by the society.

18Penny-pinching calendars!
by metatron intake a good look at the new 2004 watchtower calendar and compare it with any other calendar you receive.. it's tiny ( old folks can barely read the print).
it's only eight pages - with the months doubled up on each page.. .
now, tell me how god is wonderfully expanding this organization, amidst frequent appeals for more contributions!.

I did for a little while today and I was cracking up! What I saw was a younger, more naive version of myself. I came out swinging! LOL! I was heavily involved in an anti-homosexual thread and a political thread within a month of my first post. Maybe leopards don't change their spots often. However, I love that naivate that I first had. I was so open and honest about everything and in the time since then I've become more guarded and insecure about what I say. I don't know what has caused that but, I miss the way I felt at first. I'm a changed person for the better or worse.
How do you feel about your older posts or threads? Do you feel the same as you did then? I've changed considerably. My basic view on things is pretty much the same but my attitude is vastly differant. I'm not sure if that's good or bad.
Sample post of mine:
OMG!

In response to this thread: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/43899/614557/post.ashx#614557 I'm still laughing at the person I was just a scant year ago. ~Aztec -

What Do YOU Expect From Others?
by Guest 77 inin short, respect, honesty and truth.

Honesty is the only thing I really expect from anyone. I'm realizing more and more that it's a pipe dream. My level of trust has been lowered dramatically. Even if it's blunt and especially if it's not something I may want to hear, I respect people telling me their honest opinions.
That's it.

You know what my idea of paradise would be? To be on that earth without hypocrites and morons.

If it wasn't for the dweeby clothes, I'd say they're using some hotties in their pictures!

Stay strong! I think most everyone here has been through something similar so we understand. Having a loved one sick and in the hospital is very tough. You are in my thoughts today.

- When you first came here what did you expect?
About what I've found. Mostly good people, lots of interesting stories, a few interesting debates.
- What were you looking for?
The same.
- Did you find it and if so how?
Yes. Opening up about myself and sharing my experience helped I think.
- If you were looking for information how did you look for it -
- ask a question?
- wander through the threads?
- use the search utility?
- other?
All of the above.
- Where there other places that helped you find what you were looking for? If so where?
Tim Campbell's website was invaluable to me at first. I think that's a great place to start for an exiting, or doubting dub.
- How did you feel coming here at first?
Pretty cool. I wasn't new to db's or ex jw db's.
- How long did you read before signing up and posting?
I didn't even read one thread before I started posting. I tend to hop into things without thinking twice.
- What made you feel safe enough to post that first time?
My naivete. Isn't everyone what they say on the internet?
- If you came across some of the flaming on here, how did you feel and what convinced you to stay?
I'd already seen more than one flame war so it didn't put me off at all.
If you have been here for a while now
- How do you feel over-all about this website?
It's pretty good. If I didn't like it I wouldn't keep coming back.
- Do you still come here for the same reasons as you came in the beginning?
Nope. Now I come here to keep up with the people I've come to care about.
- How has the board changed?
I doesn't seem that differant to me but, I've only been coming here for a year.
- How does this affect you?
It doesn't.
- Have you thought of leaving? If yes then why stay? What keeps you coming back?
I try and leave but, I think the best thing is a slow withdrawal and not an abrupt cutoff. I'll leave sometime, probably soon. I think I need to ween myself off.
What do you see as the main goal for this board?
Information about the JW's. Support and understanding for those who need it. Good debate about most anything.
