You know you're from the Bronx when...
by BQE inyou say downtown and expect everyone to know that this means manhattan.
you know how to get on a bus using the rear door.. you have never been to the statue of liberty or the empire state building.. you can get into a four-hour argument about how the yankees were better than the dodgers.
but you can't find brooklyn on a map.

Killing Children= Save Organization
by metatron inrecently, the vile, reptilian character of the governing body slipped through their slick propaganda again.. i refer to a recent "new outline/public talk" in which a teenager.
with leukemia is mentioned - and a recent watchtower article.
about special meetings with pictures of gb members - that also.

Reasons Sir Cliff Richard never became a JW
by alliwannadoislive insir cliff richard is one of the singers universally loved by the 40+ generation (certainly here in the uk) ... that is unless that 40+er is one of jehovahs witnesses.. doubtless there are some jws who do enjoy cliffs music, but i have always been surprised by the widespread dislike of him within the jw community.. this is in stark contrast to the widespread love for his former band - the shadows - the presence of one of their cds being a feature in a very high percentage of british jw homes.. reason quoted to me.
when i first came into the truthtm in the early 80s, it was explained to me that cliff had connections with jws (if i remember right - his mother and sister were baptised).. cliff had shown an interest in the truthtm, had a bible study with hank and had been to many meetings.
he had allegedly been spotted at one of our districts conventions at twickenham, walking around in a bright pink suit.

Who's Who in the WBTS
by bj inmany are those of us here who often ask who's who in the wbts.
to simplify things it would be a good idea if a volunteer would create a web site specificaly with this aim.
it could lead also for a book.. if one needs to consult the biography of don adams, joel adams, karl adams, etc., this site would furnish the answer.

society cutting costs?!
by greven ini was wondering if you noticed the society cutting costs.. for example : the books are now printed on cheaper paper and have a soft cover.
also subscriptions are no longer mailed by post but will be brought to you by publishers (cutting cost and upping field service!
to flies in one!).
