    Some fire departments have flags on their uniforms. I know quite a few jw firefighters. How is that possible?

    No national flags, or for that matter, nothing with a national flag on it was allowed, no matter how tiny it was.

    then there was the "skirt slit" spirituality indicator....
    do i have to explain it to anyone here?

    Nope, we had one newly interested person come to the hall with a modest slit in her skirt, the Elders had her study conductor speak with her. She NEVER returned.

    Good for her

    I'm not sure Blondie,

    All I know is that I had a small decal on my car, and the Elders were insistant that I remove it. They told me I was promoting nationalism.

    Maybe things have changed, or my "Eders" were very anal, I opt for the latter.

    Don't sit in the same seat for every meeting. Doing so shows poor spirituality.

    No jeans during assemblies, even to go out for dinner at night.

    Don't wear perfume to assembles; it maight trigger allergies.

    Can't put your hand around your spouse's waist or shoulder during prayer.

    Don't give kids crayons and/or painting books during meetings; they are suppossed to liste and learn (even if they're 1 1/2)

    Rule we hated the most.

    If the kids acts up at the KH. You MUST take them to the back and beat them or you are not a good example.

    You know, I've often wondered what new visitors have thought of this rule???

    What did they think we had in the back room, a torture chamber? Whips, stocks, brass knuckles, electric shock terminals. These JW kids always came out of the room with tears and red eyes.

    And of course, we told them our children needed and loved this form of torture. "Yes mommy, can I have another?!"

    One of my favorite chores at the hall was handling the roving microphones for the WT study and other Q&A parts. You got to stand up in the aisle while everyone else was seated. I got to look down many an open blouse in those days...

    Sometimes that's the only thing that got me through the meetings. Eventually they took me off microphone duty, and I was never on it again. Maybe I was too obvious about enjoying the cleavage.
