Ah. Ooh they're really interesting - though I suppose standing outside Boots or on a street corner actual JWs would be like "ooh a new copy of the WT!" and be eager to get their hands on it.
Brummie - know any Apostates in Sheffield? PM me?

Apostate Literature
by glitter in.
a jw once told me apostates print their "own" version of the publications with "convincing" covers to "trick" people - apparently they used to stand outside a shop in sheffield and jws had almost taken literature from them.. has this got any truth to it at all?
i'd have thought most self-published apostate literature would be photocopied leaflets.. other than the brilliant photoshopped spoof covers people post of course!

Course I knew the *content* would be true as the content *here* is true - but what about the convincing covers part? Have Sheffield apostates got professional printing presses?

*How long*?!
That's unbelievable - why so short a sentence?! There's got to be something the story hasn't mentioned, even with time-served that's outrageous - what has the response been in Canada? Anyone know?
Well I hope they both had "fun" in prison and continue to do so... ugh.

My new house is in my old congregation's territory
by Nosferatu ini'm going through the required stuffies to buy a house.
actually, it's already mine, and posession date is at the end of september.
it's a great house, finished basement, 2 bathroom, 2 (or 3) bedroom, heated garage with a ceiling fan (the guy who owned it went through a divorce, i'm guessing he lived in the garage), nice back yard, fence, quiet neighborhood, i could keep going.. the bad thing is it's in my old congregation's territory.

Move?
Or call the KH and have your house put on their Do Not Call list so you don't get called on at all.
Sounds like a really great house - I'd love a basement, what are you going to use it for? Just storage or as an extra living room area?

Protecting your kids
by Lehaa injust saw a great news report on how to protect you kids from predators.. it all revolves around a code word.. you and your kids agree on one.
if someone different is to pick your kids up you give then the code word.
if they don't know the word then the kids know that you did not send them.

Yesterday on a breakfast TV show they had an item about little plastic bracelets that you write your mobile phone number on (but not child's name etc obviously) so if your kid wanders off a passer-by can keep your child safe and call you and let you know where they're waiting for you.
Really good idea - only thing that bugged me was on the trailers for the item it showed a *toddler* wearing one and getting "lost" - don't people put reins and wrist-straps on their toddlers anymore?! Can't wander off if they're *tied* to you!
So I thought you might find that idea handy - I don't know where you could get them from (I think they mentioned a travel agency on the show) but any wide bracelet and a permanent marker would do.

Wednesday - did you ever watch Eastenders? I heard it's coming back but only on PPV
An excellent recent British Sitcom is "Spaced" - might have been on Comedy Central before so might do again (maybe... )
