    I used to ask people who said... "I enjoyed your comment."

    "What was it that I commented on that got your attention?"

    That would weed out the BS.

    The greatest thing about assemblies was the many hot sisters and getting their phone numbers and making out with them a few months later...possibly dry humping (feeling guilty), but doing it again despite the guilt.

    ah, assemblies, lunch hour is like a surreal, fully clothed sex club.

    i'm almost tempted to go hang out, spot the "baddies" and take them for drinks after.

    let me guess what they're harping on this year:

    1) the authority of the WTBTS and governing body

    2) the end is right around the corner, stay awake, even though we just bought ourselves another 50 years or so with the generation overlap-dance.

    The only convention that would be great, would be traveling 125 miles to the parking lot to find out it was cancelled. I bet lots would be driving with the biggest smiles ever!

    mutinyinheaven......................I don't know how long since you been one, but the 'generation' or young generation are more worldly then wordly people. For example......I can go to a 'worldy' gathering, party, etc, and nothing really happens. Yet go to a JW party, or a 'camp out', and everyone is drunk and going off into the woods.

    Such hyposcrisy, we all need to repent of our judging from our hearts.

    No, wait.....

    Ever notice that the most appreciative urgent sounding comments come from the true slackers?

    I had a call from a JW whom I was close with, used it to weedle his way in as he knew from a buddy of his that we have not been to a meeting in 6 months. Wants to drop by and tell me all about it and just listen to me. He won't take no for an answer as i think he and his friend have made my family their pet "summer distraction from service" project. Its hard because he was a genuinely decent guy -

    Blondie, thanks for the three pointers - I will use them...

    BTW: I think some of you will find this amusing.....I have not served as an elder for almost 18 months and I had two calls in 24hrs to give a talk, one in a neighbouring congregation that has some very toxic dubs!!! (I figured it must be satan...:))
