    terafera...u don't mean Gary? Married to Val? No can't be...or was it when Gary was married to Abbey...no no...can't be. I lost touch because I was banned from watching it...I was shamed and incarcerated.

    I had a Guinness Stout sticker inside my car...
    A circuit overseer saw it and "reported" me to the elders. Of course,
    being the good witness that I was, I took the sticker off.
    Sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Was Gary the guy who looked like Elvis? Cute, dark hair? God I loved him! I hated Val when she left him! If Val was Joan Van Ark, I mean.

    LOL, look at us! Trying to reminisce and cant remember a darn thing! BUt I loved K.L.!! Falcon Crest was good too.

    Cant think of anything. If I had higher status in the congregation, I mightve been in a part for the meetings or assembly. But no such luck.

    The only hint of praise I ever saw or received was for the first talk in the Ministry School. Other than that, I never felt appreciated for anything, even when I repaired an elders Mercedes on the side for $25.

    If God's Spirit is filling a Kingdom Hall, how is it that Satan can manuever the ones within that Kingdom Hall at the same time?

    Yes!! Gary was the blonde! Now I remember.... and Abbey died in his trunk. He was on trial for killing her but after careful investigation (remember Mac was a P.I.?) it was found that Abbey got drunk and gagged herself and put herself in the trunk. She was going to say that Gary kidnapped her, but she vomited, choked on her vomit and died. She did all this in an attempt to frame Gary for kidnap.

    Wow !!! I loved that show!!!!

    I know a sister who was counselled by a group of elders for praying!

    The aussies here know who I mean!

    For others here, no, it wasn't in some 'hick' town, it was at Bethel!

    Cheers,
    Ozzie

    I got counseled for studying the WT with a "mature" christian for spiritual encouragement because I was already baptized. So much for being "counscious of your spiritual need".

    Another time I was counseled for turning in a regular pioneer application because in the previous month(s) I didn't get "enough" hours. So I was turned down, and consequently stopped going out in service alltogether.

    Wasnt me, but I knew a young guy in our cong got councelled for drawing a picture of the "shulamite maiden" during a Watchtower meeting. Breasts of figs,lips of honeycomb, hair like burnished copper and all that. Saw the pic. great creative drawing.
    Some old biddy sat behind him thought it "irreverent" and squealed to the Elders.

    I once got some guys councelled, at an assembly, there were a load of brothers keeping night watch, I was one. Some of the boys got rowdy and I ratted them out.

    Oh!! I did get councelled once!
    Four of us young lads got chewed out for hunting deer in the woods NAKED. I took pictures of the escapade, someones brother saw them and squealed us out.
