Actual test that I took 5 years ago for mensa scored 135.
Mensa doesn't give out scores any more... so I don't know what I scored on the admission test I took. But they did accept me and I think you need a 135 or so to get in.
Not sure if they are using the mensa scale or not.
This brings up a good point: IQ scales are different depending on which test you take.
well, we had a grand old time yesterday dakota red kindly offered his home for our mini-fest, and what started off as a little party for searcher (our uk guest of honor) became somewhat more than that .
in alphabetical order, our group included: bikerchic, blueyes, bruce and dorian baker, buster and wifey, carmel, dakota red, goshawk, lost diamond, onacruse, princess and steve (and steve's mom and a family friend), searcher, seven006, songmistress, and veniceit.. carmel brought some delicious salmon for the barbie, and we even got searcher to have a taste.
we overlooked the fact that brits prefer to eat fish in the form of fish and chips searcher and songmistress--when we brought out the cake, everything was fine until somebody started to sing happy birthday...the words just sorta stuck in our throats, and we looked around at each other like a bunch of dubbies lolololol.
I almost had the "snip snip" procedure done... and I was only 22 or 23 at the time. Good thing we came to our senses and decided against it. We do not have kids yet but some day we want to bless the world with some kids.
remember back to the days you were in the theocratic school and had to give talks, were they the worst or what, i remember they were suppose to run about 6-8 minutes, i had some short as 3. the talks were pointless, you would just throw some mumble jumble together and go up and talk, first the introduction (and don't forget your gestures), then read the weekly scripture and then the conclusion, all your words of wisdom.
i would rank this second on the worst list next to field service (still # 1).. how about you, did you enjoy doing them ?
I absolutely *hated* giving talks. I dropped out of the TMS a few years before I left the organization though. What a relief not to have to worry about giving those stupid talks.
in june of 2003, members of this and other xjw forums were informed of the availability of the "watchtower bookshelf cd," and in that initial announcement they were told:
"...the wt bs cd is being distributed as freeware to seekers of truth everywhere.
many expressed an interest in the project, which was very gratifying.
Note: The FTP site has been restricted to 6 total connections in order to keep the download rate from dropping to 1 byte/second. Also, only 1 connection can be made from any one machine so don't use those multi-connect super-FTP-sucker programs.
