    I have read this site many times, and I have even mentioned a few times before under the name DissedSis that I am from the panhandle area of Texas.....IE Amarillo area, and it seems that I can not find anyone else around this area that were witnesses in this area If you know anyone that is from this area or if any of you are from this area PLEASE let me know that I am not the only apostate around here...... I would like some sort of peace of mind

    One more idea... I did a "SEARCH" at this forum, typed in the word AMARILLO, and a few threads came back, particularly this one entitled "Where Are You?": http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=32891&site=3&page=2

    On that page was this post:

    Texas Panhandle, some 50 miles from Amarillo.

    And in that same thread, "Navigator" said they were in Ft. Worth; and Jesika is in Dallas; and Yours Chelbie wrote she was in the Texas Gulf Coast, but moving north soon...

    (You might want to do another SEARCH in this forum and use the word "TEXAS," and you'll probably find even more folks that way.)

    HTH!

    I know there are a few on this board who are in the Texas area - maybe on the weekend you'll get more responses.

    If all else fails, you can always come and visit us in Australia. We like to use any excuse to have an Apostafest, even if a snail sneezes!

    Yo, I used to live in Woodward, OK. Not that far from the panhandle. Now I live in Pittsburgh. Which is my hometown. Go Stillers!

    I keep threatening to move to Texas if I win Powerball - does that count? Probably not, I'm not an ex-Dub! LOL

    Hey DissedSis! Don't forget we are having a gathering November 9th in Dallas. There will be over 25 of us from Texas and other states joining together for much bad association. Please check out this thread if you are interested in joining us. We would love to meet you and want you to know that you're always welcome among us on the board and in person. BTW, welcome to the board and watch out for the naughty sixofnine...

    Sincerely,

    District Overbeer
