Hello to the Ozzies on this fine day.
I am going to go with
# 4 talking/giggling in groups while the meeting show was going on.
#5 they have the biggest briefcases and are were always looking through them while the meeting is was going on.
#14 there were one or two that would say hello, most would rush right by because they had something important to say to the other one.
#15 other they were allowed to give a summation of the talk or council in the prayer lasting 5 min or more.

most jws can't say "god bless you" or "bless you" when someone sneezes for fear of blessing someone with the wrong god.. now that you are out, do you have the nerve to say it?.
yizuman.
Hi Neal, this is something that is not easy for me to say to anyone. I either say the German version, which I think, means Good Health to you. Maybe Animal knows. or I just say " Goodness " and then wash my hands if it's a cashier handing me my change.

yea, i did something i tought i'd never do.
i finally threw most of my jw hard cover books away.
i must have had about 50 jw books laying there on the floor in the closet.
every now and then I'll run across those that I have saved, wondering why? Then I go through and throw them away making sure they are torn to shreds so some poor soul doesn't read them in the dump ( I've heard this has happened in a talk at an assembly). I recently had a handful of tapes still in the wrapper, I opened them pulled out the tape and cut it. Some of the Awakes I keep only because my sons have used the pictures (like the ocean or cell pics) for a class project, cutting out the pictures. I'm still hanging on to the Insight books to use as reference to validate a point when the WTS change their minds again.

don't think of it as pearls, when it's more like Vomit your cleaning up.
ok, this has probably been discussed before, but, how many here have tried the atkins diet?
did you have a good/bad experience with this diet.
the reason i ask is because i went to my doctor and my bp is way up.
i've been doing Atkins for 3 months and have lost 16 pounds, Jerry lost 15 in 2 months. I like it! I seldom feel hungry and have reworked recipes so they are low carb. Gosh I use to love chocolate, non stop, now I have no craving for it. If I want something sweet I have the low carb bars on hand. Atkins and Carb Solutions. Constipated? NO, drink your water. You can take a stronger dose of vit C which could also help.
I bought a bread machine and have made the ATkins bread in the box with it. We like the recipe for bread found at this site www.lowcarbluxury.com , ( Gabis World Famous Bread). I also order their tortillas on line ( from Atkins) getting a bunch at a time and freezing them.
In his book, there have been people who safely are on induction 6 months or more, if you lose fast, go ahead and have a pasta meal now and then, there are low carb pasta's that can be found at any health food store. But keep in mind that it takes about 3 days for your body to return to a fat burning mode.
Induction doesn't last forever and you can incorporate the fruits and higher glycemic veggies into it later on, you can always cut back if the weight goes up. It's amazing at how many carbs I had ever been eating and how it just stored as fat.Also with any diet Write down what you eat and add up the carbs. Good Luck!

We still do as a family at mealtime, directing it to the Father, and I also say a prayer with our youngest son at bedtime.

ok, maybe not a real scandal, but this really bugs the hell out of me!
in short, the kingdom hall i went to as child and teen, is being sold to a church.
my mother (still active) informed me of this.
this also had happened to a hall when we lived in ND ,it was sold to a church, The sisters would just say Jah is no longer there since they wern't.
The hall was being shared by two congregations, Off they went to each get their land, One was built within a year the other one (this was 9 years ago) still has no building on it because they can't afford it. They were so excited to put out a Quick Build Sign, but the sign was only up a few months because people kept asking "What's a Quick Build" ? Funny they still have to share.

as many of you know, my wife had a stroke back in september.
i was so happy that over 80 people sent us public and private e-mails.
some sent flowers and one person sent a gift.
Larc, everyone needs to get things out in the open. Think of us as your support team. Jan is hardly making" little progress", she has come quite far and should be proud of it. Discuss with her doctor how weak she feels maybe there is something he/she could suggest. Never give up! We're all rooting for you guys.
