We had a free lunch today at work. From past experience, I knew I should've brought my own lunch. This time, it was worse than usual. I hate coleslaw, so I passed on that. The beans tasted like puke - LITERALLY. The pulled pork was flavorless, other than ripping your tongue off from it being too spicy.
NEVER AGAIN.

I don't remember the talking donkey. Could someone post that?
BTW, is there a parallel between The Watchtower and talking out of an ass? -

Dub Grub - I like it!
I also like Farkel's "Babylon the Grape" and "The Genital Times". "Paradise Erf" is mine :D -

Wow, I haven't seen those pictures in years! I especially remember the last one. Notice how both girls are wearing dresses?
After my mom joined the JWs, this book was forced to be my favorite. All my other books were eliminated (except for "Mommy, What's Drunk?") and I was forced to go over this book about 300 times. When the baby-shit yellow cassettes in the human-shit brown case were released, I ended up getting those too. I always wanted to know who's voice was on those tapes. Anybody know? -

Some updates
by Lady Lee inwell i fried my motherboard so no computer access for me for a while.. my jw grandmother died last tues. of course no one told me until the day before the funeral.
my ex-jw aunt thought she would give it a few days to see if my mother would make the call.
and i suspected no one told her dfed son, so i asked mouthy/grace and her daughter to get a message to him.

- "I downloaded and tried Ubuntu for a couple of days. I was not impressed."
Then try a different flavor of Linux. May I suggest PCLinuxOS? Unlike Ubuntu, everything works out of the box and I almost switched to it because it's incredibly user friendly. IMO, the only thing Ubuntu REALLY has going for it is good support. Otherwise, I wouldn't be using it.
It's like buying a car. If you take a test drive and don't like the car, you don't give up on driving altogether. You test drive a different car! -

- "Ubuntu Linux."
AGREED 100%
Sparky, I'm so sorry you had to go through with this. I know about the keyloggers, the spyware, the trojans, and people taking over the computer (I fix all these problems for people). The Windows world has gone to shit. My cousins had their computer full of spyware and garbage which I had to remove every month or so. My cousins paid to have their computer 'fixed' by someone else. They were extremely unhappy about this because they couldn't do anything on it, it was so locked down. When I came over to their place on the next visit, I moved them to Ubuntu Linux and they were happy as hell. Everything works faster, and you don't have to worry about infection! There are NO ACTIVE VIRUSES IN THE WILD that will infect Linux machines.
I can't tell you how secure I feel doing my online banking and purchases in Linux because KEYLOGGERS, SPYWARE, AND TROJANS DON'T WORK IN LINUX (unless you make an effort to install them yourself, and it REALLY is an effort!)
I know you do work with photos, and there is some decent photo editing software for Linux (The Gimp). Google is funding the Wine project to get Adobe Photoshop working under Linux, so it really shouldn't be too long before it's available as an option as well.
The best part about Ubuntu Linux ..... IT'S FREE! If you don't want to install it yourself, you could probably pay someone to install it for you, or you could buy a PC from Dell with it pre-installed.
I REALLY think you should consider this as an option. Oh yeah, and if you want to try before you install, just download and burn the CD image, boot off the CD, and you can try it out with no commitments. -

Reason for the 8-Month Announcement
by doinmypart inthe question has been raised, "why was the announcement about the congregation bible study announced 8 months before implementation?".
i believe it is simply a matter of how the wts plans things.
the theocratic ministry school schedule comes out in the october km.

How long is the Grate Tribulation supposed to last? If it lasts less than 8 months, JWs won't know it has arrived until they're in Paradise Erf.

WT BOOKS - Clean out the literature room at the KH
by Alligator Wisdom infor those who are still active and have access in obtaining literature from the kingdom hall, would you do this?.
to just give away literature, especially books, from the literature desk to force printing.. in giving away literature, especially the costlier books than magazines, it will force the wts to print more and use up assets.
just give these books away at the doors.

DON'T GIVE THEM OUT! We really don't need more people joining this cult. You're best off to burn them or put them in the trash / recycle. Make the Preaching work more ineffective by increasing the disposal of literature. When you go out in Service, bring one set of magazines (oops, I forgot them) and get others to give you magazines to place. That way, you're not the only source for disposing of the magazines. Oh yeah, and ask EVERYONE in the hall if they have extra books / magazines that you could place in Service (or build up your "library"). Mass purging is fun!
