This is very interesting.
my brother's wife just died.
it seems someone in my family is dying every month lately.
i guess when you get my age everyone you are friends with will be gone soon, including myself.. ken p..
Sorry for your loss.
i was raised with this belief, that we would never die and actually make it into the "new system".
mu faithful jw aunt still talked about my mother (her sister) and her walking together into the great tribulation--- and never die at all!
she spoke of that 2 days before she passed away.. i believe most witnesses expect to die and then get resurrected.
You are right Minimus the JW's don't talk about it as they did in years prior to 2000. No one wants to admit it and verbalize it but deep inside many no doubt have lost hope of walking across to the new order.
My own father, after a lifetime in this organization has come to the realization that he is not going to make it. Living forever has become a haze for many of them. So bad so sad
well... as they say on talk back radio "i'm a long time listener, first time caller"(poster in this case!).
i have been a "lurker" for several years, but never had the courage to take the step and join up...until now.. i really want to thank everyone for their insights and comments throughout the forum.
although i have not contibuted to discussions, i have benefitted very much from all of your comments and observations on all topics.
Welcome from my end too. Please share your story.
my mother broke her hip last week.
she had an emergency partial replacement surgery friday night.
we don't know how she did it as we have caregivers with her at all times, she may have fallen while in the bathroom for a few minutes.
Sorry to hear JeffT. At such advanced age she may have lots stacked against her. It is very hard to watch our parents age and weaken. I am dealing with similar situation right now. I feel helpless as I watch my parents deteriorate. Keep strong and I hope your mom pulls through.

Hoser and Baldeagle:
I'm glad I am not the only one that thinks Wayne Johnson to be a real piece of work. --so deluded and full of himself. A genuine human peacock. I have heard through the grapevines that he has been or was ill for a time.----- He wont be getting a "get well" card for me any time soon.
Ancientofdays: I've also wondered about the italian letterhead and wondered what is up for that. I know for a fact that there are many capable translators at Via della Bufalotta and around . But then again Anthony Morris the third showed the world that the only thing Italians were known for was tight pants.
against my better judgement, i've decided to share the following as a response to guy pierce passing and the announcement of the elimination of district overseers later this year.. late in january (2014) i got an email from one of my contacts (a fader) who served at bethel for several years, but is no longer at wt hq.
he still has a lot of close contacts within the service department and in other departments at patterson and knows people in all of the ny offices.
i kept this email set aside on a flash drive and haven't shared it with anyone - figuring i'd publish an article about it later this year when i had more time to do it right.
Very interesting and very credible. Thanks for sharing

Good news. Glad some of the pompous DO's I've come across will be brought down a peg or too. Any Canadian remember Wayne Johnson?
the guy i know was saying this the other day.. "it's been suggested this may be the last one", or words to that effect.. where & by whom?.
is this doing the rounds?.
Every year is the last year.
for the first time, weve accessed to audiovisual material in spanish, regarding the elders schools.
here is a video of a dramatization of a model judicial committee, in addition to letts introduction (speaking with strange gestures) and comments from anthony morris iii:.

i am so happy this video is out. It shows what a kangaroo court it is.
