...so said my dear 'ol mom after her and my dad made reservations for this year's District Convention and realized that another hotel on the Lodging List had a cheaper rate.

She figured that calling up the previous hotel to cancel was against the Society's ~~rules~~ counsel listed in the KM about making reservations.

So she spends the next 20 minutes looking all over the house for the KM to make sure there are no rules against cancelling a reservation already made with a hotel since "we don't want to bring on reproach on Jehovah's name."

Even my dad got fed up and ended up just calling to cancel but by then the room that they wanted had been booked.

HA! Sounds like my mom.

No offense, but... my god... do these people wait for the 'approved toilet paper' list to come out in the km before wiping their butts? My mom would do the same thing...

G'day Still_A_Witness,

While I used to ask "what would Jesus do?" my mum would ask "what would the Elders say?"

Nowerdays, in light of the $ocietys massive income & huge property holdings, I guess the Brooklyn Bible $cholars spend most of their time asking "what would Donald Trump do in this situation"

cheers, unclebruce

ps: aww watchtower mums are the same the world over .. but hang on perhaps they're right? Perhaps thinking for themselves really is bad? I mean just look what happened the very last time your mum thunk for herself! (she becomed a 'jehovahs witless').

I guess the Brooklyn Bible $cholars spend most of their time asking "what would Donald Trump do in this situation"

Good point unclebruce!

Or how about:

"what would Johnnie Cochran do in our situation?" (http://www.answers.com/topic/johnnie-cochran-lawyer?method=6)
