witnesses are supposed to be "exemplary" and not like the "world".
yet some jws are pretty notorious.. did you know of any jws that did some real bad things?.
i knew a pious witness who got caught twice trying to solicit prostitutes.
My Regular Pioneer ex-girlfriend, was boinking some brother for at least 3 months. I flew out to Cali every other week, and talked to her nearly everyday, and never knew. I should have seen this coming, as she sent me a full-body nude shot when we first started dating,but I can be oblivious at times. When I told a friend, he actually made up some BS reason as for why it could have been a mistake.
I had my other signs. But didn't see them all until it was too late.

But carry an arrogance of righteousness that can chock a horse all at the same time.
People should be cautious around JWS for this very reason.
405DP0003217648 thetrueone, Man you aren't lying. While true, the same can be said about non-witnesses. As a group, I've never met or seen people so pompous, and self-righteous than some JW's.

This may have happend about 5 to 4 years ago. I know for a fact, as the situation brought to me by the young mans Uncle, as we are GOOD freinds. He told me concerning it, that he was telling me because he rather I hear it from him, rather tha the upcoming scuttlebutt he feared ( which never came )
His dad had taken in his sisters kids. Brother and sister. At the time 'Bob' was about 16,17 ? and his sister 14,15. 'Bob' and his sister 'Mary' had intercourse, which produced a child. And I saw the young lady a few times, and she was INDEED showing. It was kept VERY quiet. At first the young man and his sister kept in the same house,but with someone around at ALL TIMES. Last I knew the young lady frankly grew tired of the JW was and when my freinds dad had confronted her time and agin regarding her attitude, she one night never came home from work and had moved her things out. The young man I believe was made to return to his mom.
I STILL don't know what happened to that baby. And NO ONE ever speaks of it. I never spoken a word of this to anyone, except here. My friend never speaks of it, with the exception of the time he told me 'Mary' the young lady, had left and moved out.
The Irony is My friends dad was our PO when I first moved to this area.
This is the WORST thing I know of any witnesses doing, that is not heresay, or some grapevine gossip.
and they are now in 1st place in the n.l.
west with a 6-1 record !
and the hated l.a. dodgers are in last place !
Native Bostonian, born and raised........
The BoSox are my team, and whoever is playing the STANKEES. I suffered through Buckner, JIMY Williams and Aaron freaking Boone ( I didn't read, watch or go online for 2 months after that walk-off...same with the 2007 Pats. True Boston fans can relate,lol ) and go back to the days of Clemems when he was clean, Tom Seaver, and Dennis 'Oil Can' Boyd with that firecracker temper.
Like every year, this year is no different. We will overtake the Yankee's and I feel my team has a shot at the World Series.
While I'm here...Go C's, Bruins, and Pats !!!!!
My first love, football, can't get here fast enough. As long as No 12 is at QB, I'm not worried about the Jets.
Ok, rant over.
i have a lot of memories of attending assemblies there for 30 years.
does anyone remember all the purple coloring?
remember that guy who used to wave a stick like he was conducting an orchestra except there was no orchestra, only a guy playing the piano and the audience singing?.
Been there MANY times. My aunt made sure we sat our a&% right smack in the front.
Minimus.....thinking about it now, if you'd have fallen off, I may have caught you !!!

i'm trying to compare some statistics and figures on this to share later in the thread to see if more long-time witnesses are exiting- or are newer witnesses exiting after a shorter period of time.
and - are more people exiting in the last 10 to 15 years than before.
so your answers would be helpful in looking into this .
Oh...and I certainly don't miss working ALL day and then busting ass home to run to a meeting. That rat race sucked bigtime now that I look back. BUT.... I was trying SO HARD to be a good brother and eventual MS.

Stop going on a regular basis wow...2007 ?? Last District Convention 2001. I'd tell my mom I sat somewhere in the Astrodome and she believed it. I go every now and then to appease her. This past memorial was my first since 2005
if you *need* to take antidepressants *during* my flight, i like to know about it before i board...... good lord, what are these people thinking?
or not thinking?

I do not personally know of any taking any . That said, given the rigorous physical, recurrent, and proficiency exams all pilots go through........
I'll take my chances with the guys up front. Most people can't change lanes with banging up another car.
Pilots need to process information, and make a sound, and deliberate decision with no-second guessing. Turning a 757 for finals into Boston with high wind gusts, frozen precip, low visibility...basically ILS conditions is alot harder than making a u-turn in your Camry on wet roads.
Airlines now, make little to no money and there is pressure to get people home, on vacation,to meetings and help the bottom line.
Flying can be and is stressfull. The commercial pilot community as a whole is very good at self-policing themself. Most pilots can declare themseves 'unfit' to fly. ( stress, fatigue, or some simply time-out...over FAA duty time, etc ) Sam Whiskey, I wouldn't worry about your next flight.
But........the FAA and airlines need to do more to help pilots. Today, most are being pushed to their limit, and the up and coming pilots from the regionals do scare me,no fault of their own. It's the safest aviation system in the world ( US ) but more needs to be done to improve it and keep it that way.
