this was one of the most rediculous things i've ever seen.
so i scanned it.
(hope it's a decent size, if not i'll resize it)..
This form or somethingn similar is used to determine the ability of the local cong. to pay a loan. No names are used on the form and there is no aatempt made to imply this is a pledge. No interest is charged for loans made by WTS now.
IN times past whenever I was involved with this type of thing we always took half of the total amounts that were indicated from all the forms and used this to calculate the estimated payment. Loans are issued by Pa. Corp. for ten years 0% interest.
as we entered a door of the administration building we did not head to the elevator to take us up the eight floors to the main administration floor.
i looked around the room and asked, "what's up with her?
i was going to work with the elder from hell who ran the photography department.
Oh Boy, Oh Boy, Oh Boy, does this thread bring back the memories of days gone by. And also bye, bye for that matter. BTW the name of the English woman - Marina Sydlick (AKA Ice Woman). The photo dept. overseer - Jim Spencer, later demoted for using the Bethel equipment to make money (discussed elsewhere on this board). Don't know who you slammed with the door, sounds like fun.
Leave poor Freddy and his sartorial skills alone. I always found it quite amusing to see what he would wear next. I remember him giving someone's (Bethelite) funeral discourse wearing a Hawaiian style shirt with a paisley tie and no jacket. Probably the same shoes you saw. It was a hoot.
more, more, more
don't know if this was posted or not but after reading this story the moral is that we should always have a chaperone with us wherever we go!

According to the rules of the WTS they must now be disfellowshipped because they spent the night together under improper circumstances.
a few moments ago, in the chat room, reference was made to a tv series called "mi 5".
now simon, little toe and myself had never heard of it, even though it's a brit programme.
reason is, because in the uk, it's simply called "spooks".. it was immediately pointed out to us that this is a derogatory term in the us, although over here it simply means "ghosts".. so, ladeez and gentlemen, .
In the south it would be completely inappropriate to use the word around certain persons of color. No offense intended but I do know some who would be offended regardless of your personal meaning in using it.
have any nicknames you remember used to describe the boys at bethel?
e.g.
vern wisegarver was quickchew because he was quic to chew you out.
Mizpah those girls were from the 4H club - Hungry - Heights - Husband - Hunters
well this isn't exactly what you might think, but i have the following information based on what i consider good authority.
still, it's without a shred of hard evidence.
i am bringing it up now before the watchtower society tries to sell off the particular building in question.
Don't know about your math Elsewhere, sounds uh uh uh... it's been too long since my college days, but Ol Max Larson later said that it was the rollers that expanded due to temp changes after running for a time, thus the register changes made the product unacceptable for dub publications. Don't know if this is true or not. Given the mass of the roller it's hard to believe that it would heat up enough to expand.
I do know that that million dollar press never printed the first book that actually made it into circulation. The press was orginally designed to print comic books and low budget type publications. Not intended for high quality operation. I always said they should cut it into little pieces and encase them in plastic, then sell them as momentos of Bethel. Bet they would have gotten that money back in a heartbeat.

Thanks for the suggestions Minimus, but want nicknames actually in use. I've forgotten most of them.

yes, verginia the sisters are not happy with the state of their sex lifes, because they greatly desire satisfaction.
as mick jagger appty put it " i can't get no".
i was married once and my ex-wife had to go and tell the elders that we were haveing yummie oral sex and she was just so distrot.
but the men are!
how did the org cope with the invention of tv radio and film magazines/the printing press and photography.. was watching a prog on early movies ..at the seaside there were movies machines with films like "what the butler saw" servanats and mistresses making whoopee in the larder.
not like today but must have been pretty daring in the old days and rude for the old days.
this was really really old brown and flickering film.so something objectionable to the early congregations?
I think the old boys in Brooklyn just can't believe the power of the internet, nor can they out figure how to control it. Hence it must be evil for the R & F to use it.
