    Did any of you ever see The Waterboy with Adam Sadler and Kathy Bates? I know it's an old movie, but I was watching it with my kids and I had to laugh aloud. Kathy Bates plays the cajun Mom of the mentally borderline Bobby Boucher, and I just KNOW she was a Witness!!! How? She claims everything is THE DEBIL! I've heard the same things she said from all my husband's Witness family. She said foosball (football) is THE DEBIL. Television is THE DEBIL. Dick Clark is THE DEBIL! College - you guessed it, THE DEBIL! Pretty much everything is THE DEBIL. I'll bet she doesn't believe in the internet, either!!!

    You're absolutley right! Our Kingdom hall was full of "Waterboys" who lived sheltered, retarded lives....and far too many KathyBates characters who frightened Elders. Mind you, I cant imagine THAT would be too difficult

    I watched this the other day and was thinking the exact same thing. I may watch it again with that in mind just for the kicks of it. Great observation!
