"Do I really think that Rap or Hip-Hop will be in the New Order?"

Great comeback by Blondie:

I always ask if there will be football in the "new order" considering the violence

If the new order were coming, we have no idea. The WORD is silent,
amazingly enough, on hip-hop. Nobody knows why.

They definitely would resurrect Elvis Presley and Buddy Holly. I don't
know about the Notorious B.I.G..

We had a TON of NY suits who got to fly free to Cali and get multiple green hand-shakes.

I wonder if the organization takes that into account, that they don't need all these ones
going to the best spots, so they gotta share their cut. Just a thought.

DB: "direct, hard hitting counsel" designed to "save our lives" about dress and not going to college. I saw stillajwexelder posted about the no denim. I think this was the talk but it must not have been a manuscript because the speaker here didn't mention that. He did hit on "proper" dress while touring bethel (after all, who doesn't want to put on a suit to tour a printing facility?) and at meetings.

This shows the priorities of the NY organization. Sure, they address the college issue
which is a problem, but proper dress at Bethel- WTF??? The organization is hemmoraging
and they are worried about this???? It will be another downfall assistance. They will worry
that the mind-control drones are waking up and bailing out, and at the same time they will
tell the remaining ones that they need to wear service clothing at all moments in case they
have an opportunity to "witness."

Interview with a guy who got down-sized.
...They decide to simplify. Move into an apartment and get part-time jobs and pioneer. There were a couple of details that were allowed to slip in that I would have been suspicious about anyway.

The guy has investments.
Still- see what that guy is doing after one year of pioneering.
OM, tell your kids that you don't usually have such a great
opportunity unless you paid your dues by hard work and
study early in life.

I bet he already went to college.

DB: In the drama, their are 2 principal families....

Oh my. They try to paint the first century as exactly like
the modern-day organization. This is not a Bible Drama.
You couldn't even call it Bible-based or inspired by true events.

Did you get a good puke during the afternoon symposium? That is the one that goaded people on to continue despite being worn out, and to attract persecution and adversity. Certainly, that symposium is worth missing.

I bet the skit was during the afternoon session, likely within the symposium under fighting temptation (rap music is "temptation" or under not grieving the holy spirit. Either way, I have plenty of rap music in my computer--and that's where it's going to stay.

Oooh, the symposium? Have you heard? The symposium is next... the symposium.... oooo!

I am reading through this and actually have the desire to go and see what all the fuss is about. It's a pity that I have no time.

OMG we need a recording of this drama. I am going to try to talk my brother in to doing it. That just sounds so hilarious.

Garrett Losche (sp?) has made it abundantly clear that American Footbal and tiger-petting do not mix.

I long for living in paradise, but tiger-petting, no thanks. Patting will do, though.

OM, I feel for you. I spent many a convention at the Cow Palace. What a dump, inside and out. DOn't you love those horse-trough style urinals in the men's room? The smell of urine wafting through the hallways? The rediculously lame photos of Hulk Hogan and Barbara Streisand on the walls? The walk from the upper parking lot to your seat? Crazy men running through the parking lots naked with knives? The hard wooden seats in the upper sections that, by the end of the convention, fracture your tailbone? Ahhh, those were the days.
