    Dear Abby,

    I have two brothers and two sisters; one brother is a Jehovah's Witness Circuit Overseer, and the other one was just sentenced to death for murder.

    My mother died from insanity when I was very young. My two sisters are prostitutes, and my father sells narcotics to feed the family.

    Recently I met a girl who was recently released from a reformatory, where she served time for smothering her illegitimate child; and I want very much to marry her.

    My problem is this: If I marry this girl, should I tell her about my brother who is the Circuit Overseer?

    Thank you,

    Outaservice

    LOL

    No, if that part of your life is behind you, there is no need for you to feel like you have to "confess" every dark corner of your life to your partner. On the other hand, be sure that if you decide to keep quiet about this, you don't later on change your mind, and, in effect, drag your innocent spouse through the mud of your past.

    Beautiful.

    What's the difference between a porcupine and a Volkswagen full of Jehovah's Witnesses? On the porcupine, the pricks are on the outside.

    Brother Notinservice,

    It seems like there is one bad apple in every family. I know you are ashamed, but like the others who have given you spiritual counsel, I think you need to hide your shame from your dearly beloved. I am glad you have us to share with. We understand, or as Bill Clinton used to say, "I feel your pain."

    Notinservice,

    I am worried about you. You have not written back after receiving some good advice. Please don't get too depressed about having a Circuit Overseer in the family. I know it is a source of shame for you, but it is not your fault. So please do not get depressed and blow your brains out with your father's 45. It is not good for your health.

    On a more positive note, may I attend the wedding?
