Every time I see David Splane conduct the choir I can't help but smile at his same old grammar school movements. I wonder if someone else conducts and then they dub him in a time or two to stroke his ego?

National Air & Space, Museum of Natural History, Library of Congress, Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials, Washington Monument (check to see if it's closed for tours still), White House, Capital, Holocaust Museum, on and on. So many things to see. Some things require advance preparation and tickets.
How long you stay will dictate your itinerary. We went again 2 years ago for a week and with a well planned daily schedule still didn't get to everything on our list. When you go will dictate the kind of crowds you'll encounter.
Enjoy your trip.

My 90 something mother who is a lifelong dub hasn't had a visit or phone call from any of the eldubs in months and months. Maybe during the last circuit serpent's visit. One lone sister who has been her friend for many years does come by now and then. No one checks to see if she has the latest blather either. I guess there is a limit to their abounding love if there is no public glory in it.
A pock on all their houses.

Not to insult the nameless artist, but the two "images" shown seem a bit infantile to me. Is that the best they can do these days? Must be more cut backs in the art department.

I have it but other than a novelty I really don't find it useful. I am in the process of doing some smarthome additions and we'll see how it meshes with that.

Real Estate / Legal Question re: KH Sales / Title Transfers
by RubaDub insorry about being a bit lazy and not researching this myself but when there is a real estate sale, as far as i know, this is public information and on record ( at least in most areas i am aware of).. a kh sale would be a public record.. but when a real title is transferred, isn't this public information also?
.
i ask this question because there seems to be some questions here that the publishers did not know the title of their kh had been transferred to the big borg.. any thoughts on this.. rub a dub.

In Florida some time ago Crooklyn had all congregations add certain language to their Articles of Incorporation / Bylaws which in essence said that in the event the congregation was disbanded that title was transferred to Watchtower. This was an easy thing to do without the knowledge of the rank and file as a local annual corporation meeting was generally not attended by the rank and file publisher. The exact language escapes me but I recall being irritated then at the heavy handedness. The CO was to check on his next visit that the changes had been made.
I would expect that most publishers are unaware of the way title is held to the congregation real estate in their particular state.

Need Help: My Correspondence with the Headquarters
by Lobsto ina month ago i sent a letter to the us branch about 607. my purpose for sending it was because i wanted to show to my parents through the letters the truth behind the date system.
two days ago, i received a response from them.
i think this is gonna be the first of many.

Lobsto.... you know of course that they sent a copy of your letter and this one to your congregation. Their last paragraph in typical dismissive Watchtower tone is telling you don't bother us anymore with this drivel because we are too high and mighty to deal with this.

To Active Jehovah Witnesses Who Think Outside the Box: Leviticus 4:3 Reconsidered…
by MADMARY into active jehovah witnesses who think outside the box: leviticus 4:3 reconsidered….
“‘if the priest, the anointed one, sins so as to bring guiltiness upon the people, then he must present for his sin that he has committed a sound young bull to jehovah as a sin offering.” -- leviticus 4:3 nwt.
based upon the above, is it possible jehovah witnesses worldwide are suffering and dying spiritually because of the sins of the governing body?.

The problem is the bull they are presenting.

looks like the new management of the rochester arena didn't like playing "hardball" with the jw negotiation team, and just decided to close their doors.. the group is looking at returning to rochester next summer, miller said, adding this is "not a cold, hard break.

I would love to know what the sticking point was. They have cancelled the use of facilities for as little as a difference of a few hundred dollars and inconveniencing hundred of Dubs who were forced to drive much longer distances.
Rochester is nearly 4 hours drive time from Wilkes-Barre. Can't you just hear the frustration among the rank and file?
